The full story

Why Fiesta Nissan earned this grade

Between July 2026 and July 2026, CarEdge negotiated or logged 1 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.

! Where to push back

1 thing

Doc fee is slightly padded

$499 is $128 above the NM average of $371. Not outrageous, but worth questioning.

TipAsk them to match the average. If they won't, factor it into your overall price — every dollar here is negotiable.

What they do well:Nothing stands out as a strength in this data. That's the finding.
