Automotive News today released an editorial on the proposed FTC rule: “FTC needs better insights before adding new rules.”

The editorial, which reflects the views of the publication’s editors, critiques the new FTC proposed rule as “rushed and uninformed.”

From the editorial:

“The Federal Trade Commission’s proposed dealership compliance rule may be well intended, but the development of the guidance has been rushed and uninformed. It’s time for the commission to get auto industry stakeholders involved — and listen to them.”
