The full story
Why Team Volkswagen earned this grade
In March 2026, Team Volkswagen had 2 eligible quotes reviewed, a small sample. The review considers dealer fees, required extras, selling prices, and whether charges were clearly shown.
What they do well
- ✓ Dealer fees were clearly listed. Both quotes fully itemized dealer fees, averaging $251.05. That equals the Median state fee in Indiana, also $251.05; this median is the middle fee amount in the eligible quote sample.
Where to push back
Both quotes included required extras, averaging $299. One quote did not fully itemize those extras. Ask what each required item is and request its price in writing before agreeing. The supplied quotes do not support a conclusion about how selling prices compared with advertised prices, so ask for an itemized written offer showing 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 Team Volkswagen in Merrillville, IN, that has meant 2 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%.
