The full story

Why Lighthouse Motors Inc. earned this grade

In June 2026, CarEdge reviewed 3 verified quotes for Lighthouse Motors Inc., a small sample. This review considers dealer fees, required extras, selling prices and whether charges were clearly shown.

What they do well

  • ✓ One offer matched the advertised price: The one written offer checked against its ad listed a $35,900 selling price in both places.

Where to push back

All 3 quotes lacked fully itemized dealer fees, and one showed a combined-fees amount whose breakdown was unclear. Ask for a written, itemized breakdown of every dealer fee before agreeing; unclear itemization alone does not show that the fees were excessive. Across the 2 quotes with confirmed totals, average confirmed dealer fees were $391.50. Median state fee in NJ was $799, the middle fee amount in the eligible quote sample.

Ask for an itemized written quote that separately shows the vehicle selling price, dealer fees, required extras, taxes and government charges.

How we know this

Every number on this page came from a real deal.

Most dealer review sites scrape star ratings and count angry posts. We do the opposite. CarEdge shops for cars alongside thousands of real buyers every week — and when we negotiate on their behalf, we capture the full out-the-door breakdown the dealer sends back.

For Lighthouse Motors Inc. in Pleasantville, NJ, that has meant 3 verified OTD quotes from the past year across 1 negotiated deal logged into our database. 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%.
