The full story

Why Fitzgerald Chevrolet of Frederick earned this grade

Fitzgerald Chevrolet Of Frederick has an A grade based on 5 verified quotes from November 2025 through July 2026. This review considers dealer fees, required extras, selling prices and how clearly charges were shown.

What they do well

  • ✓ Dealer fees were close to the state median. Average confirmed dealer fees were $799 across the 5 quotes, compared with a Median state fee in Maryland of $800—the middle fee amount in the eligible quote sample.
  • ✓ One written quote matched the advertised price. The single quote with a price comparison listed both the advertised and selling price at $37,995.

Where to push back

One quote included $1,848 in required extras. Ask which extras are required, whether any can be removed, and how they affect the total price. Dealer fees were not fully itemized in the 5 quotes, so ask for a line-by-line breakdown before agreeing. The available fee totals averaged $799, but that does not show what each fee covers.

Request an itemized written offer showing the selling price, each dealer fee and required extra, taxes, and government charges.
