Appearing in The New York Times on March 14, 2025, Ann Carnns talks to NCLC Senior Attorney John Van Alst about the impact of trade tariffs on the cost of cars and the buying process.
“Buying a car is always a tricky thing to do,” and uncertainty around the impact of tariffs “really makes it difficult.” Nevertheless, he said, some common-sense rules for buying a car still apply.
