The full story

Why Dch Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram Fiat Of Temecula earned this grade

Between August 2025 and July 2026, CarEdge negotiated or logged 28 verified deals with this dealership. We pulled the doc fee, the add-ons, and the gap between advertised and out-the-door price from each one. Then we graded them the way a friend in the business would: on the things that actually cost you money.

What they do well

3 things

Doc fee is in line with the market

At $85, their doc fee sits at or just under the CA average. Not exceptional, but nothing to fight over.

Advertised pricing is largely honest

On average, the quoted price is only 2.7% above the listing — small enough to be fees, not markup games.

Shoppers who negotiated saved real money

Across 7 back-and-forth negotiations we tracked here, buyers saved an average of $3,550 from first quote to final. That tells you their opening number has room.

TipNever take the first quote. Their floor is lower than what they offer on day one.

! Where to push back

1 thing

Add-ons are baked into almost every deal

96% of quotes include dealer add-ons, averaging $3,162. This is their business model — inflate the OTD, then hope you don't line-item it.

TipDemand an itemized quote before signing anything. Every add-on is optional — refuse them unless you actually want them.
