The Massachusetts Attorney General's Office has announced that the parent company of two Massachusetts Mazda dealerships, Hometown Auto Framingham, will pay $350,000 to settle allegations that the stores charged Black and Latino customers more for finance-and-insurance products than white customers. The dealership group has also agreed to enact fixed margins on all F&I products for three years and may adjust these prices downward but never upward for an individual customer only under 'good faith' scenarios.
