DealerRater.com LLC

DealerRater is a prominent online platform focused on car dealership reviews, covering thousands of dealers across the United States and Canada. The service allows consumers to read and write detailed reviews about their sales and service experiences, creating a large database of user-generated content that influences other car buyers. While primarily a business directory, the platform exposes personal information as users must provide details like their name, and sometimes location, to post a review, which are then displayed publicly. This public display of personal experiences tied to a significant financial transaction can create risks, as it may expose individuals to unwanted contact, harassment, or disputes with dealership employees. To protect their privacy, individuals should be cautious about the level of personal detail they share in public reviews and can request to manage or remove their personal information by contacting the company directly.
