The full story

Why Deacon Jones Hyundai earned this grade

Deacon Jones Hyundai is graded A; CarEdge reviewed 6 verified quotes from December 2025 through September 2026. This review considers dealer fees, required extras, vehicle selling prices, and whether charges were clearly shown.

What they do well

  • ✓ One quote came in below the advertised price. In the one written quote checked against its ad, the vehicle selling price was $1,728 below the $47,263 advertised price. Selling price excludes taxes, government charges, dealer fees and extras.

Where to push back

Average confirmed dealer fees were $1,002.54 across the six quotes, compared with the Median state fee in NC of $866.13, the middle fee amount in the state reference. Two of the six quotes exceeded that median. One quote did not fully itemize dealer fees, so ask for each fee to be listed separately and confirm the total before signing. Request an itemized written quote showing the vehicle selling price, dealer fees, required extras, taxes and government charges, and compare the selling price with the ad before agreeing.

How we know this

Every number on this page came from a real deal.

Each one is a PDF, an email, or a screenshot showing the actual dealer fees, the actual add-ons, and the final price against the advertised price — not a salesperson's promise.

Only quotes from the past year count. We split them into four groups, newest first: the newest counts 50%, then 30%, 15% and 5%.
