This sounds familiar...I know I’ve read posts on here about these very things.

“”they were found guilty of advertising vehicles at a lower price than they were willing to sell them for.
The Attorney General’s Office pursued the case against the dealerships alleging that they would advertise the vehicles at an attractive price and then force customers to add features that raised the prices of the vehicles. Customers were told they had to buy certain accessories like nitrogen in the tires, an exterior protective coating, door edge guards, door cups, or window tinting, according to a release from the Arizona Attorney General.
Although that might sound disappointingly like the experiences of many car shoppers, the consent judgment found that when customers tried to purchase their vehicles without the additions, the dealers would refuse to sell them.“”
I guess everyone that this happens to needs to contact states AG. This was in Arizona and I know states have different laws regarding dealer practices etc but it may be worth a email or phone call after reading this.
