The full story

Why Middletown Auto Sales earned this grade

Middletown Auto Sales has one eligible CarEdge quote from October 2026, so this is a small sample. The review considers dealer fees, required extras, selling prices, and whether charges were clearly shown.

What they do well

  • ✓ The quoted price was below the ad. In the written quote, the vehicle selling price was $12,900 versus an advertised $13,500, a $600 difference before taxes, government charges, dealer fees, and extras.
  • ✓ Dealer fees were clearly shown. The quote listed $175 in dealer fees, equal to the Median state fee for NY ($175), the middle amount in the monthly state reference.

Where to push back

With just one quote, treat these figures as a snapshot rather than a promise for another vehicle. Before agreeing, ask for an itemized written offer showing the selling price, dealer fees, required extras, taxes, and government charges, and confirm the selling price remains consistent with the advertised price.

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 Middletown Auto Sales in Middletown, NY, that has meant 1 verified OTD quotes from the past year 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%.
