Is this normal? It's from PNC, they say they want a cashiers check. I feel like I am getting a run around.

Tell them if they want a sale, take the check, otherwise...

They don't want the sale for whatever reason. Go to another dealer .

Fact that dealer will not accept that check is BS.  I used PNC ready check on my last car purchase . . . dealers see them all the time.

Like others have said, easy solution, go to another dealer that wants to sell you a vehicle.

This.  Not familiar with the term.

ETA:  if it's something easily "checked out" by the dealer with the bank to make sure it's a legit form of payment, the dealer is just being a dick.

You may have inferred from OP's post that he seeks some sort of government regulation, but it certainly was not implied in his post.  Then again, it may have been sarcasm.  

OP thinks he is getting the run around, and he probably is because the dealership makes money if OP uses its financing . . . dealer makes no money on financing when customer arranges his own.

No demand for anything in OP's post, simply a question.  Again, option for everyone in this situation is to go to dealer that wants to sell him/her a car without the BS.

Except it's not some mysterious rule that the car dealership has prohibiting the use of a service offered by a national bank.  They let people leave without financing in place all the time, as I said, via spot deliveries.  In fact, the dealer where I just bought a truck was more than happy to let me take it home this way with a verbal approval from my credit union and a signed paper that said if I can't get financing I have to give the truck back.  The OP is asking, rightly so, if the scumbag dealer is acting like a scumbag dealer and trying to corn-hole him and his wallet.

Many dealers do that. Those checks come with a checklist the dealer has to submit to the lender,  then wait to get the approval then the funds transferred. We accept them, but the car has to sit until the funds are approved. Some people figet those instant approvals and dealers have had issues letting the customer take the car and funds are denied then the dealer has to try to get the car back all because the customer lied to get the approval. I have seen it happen more than once in my 17 years in the car business. They should accept the check but won't let you take the car until they have the money in their account

ETA. Those loan approvals are not guaranteed. It isn't like a certified check from your bank or a bank. Some dealers don't take large personal checks. It's just their policy. We do and have even gotten burned on them once or twice.

PNC  Ready Checks are pre-approved up to a specified amount reflected on the paperwork AND the face of the check.  Dealers see them all the time.

Loan company has okayed you for an auto loan up to value X.

Unlike a traditional loan, you don't 'pull the trigger' on the loan until you actually write the check to buy the car.

There is generally a 30 day 'end date' where if you haven't pulled the trigger, the 'almost loan' cannot be acted upon, but you can re-apply

You're right.  I've never bought a car in my entire life nor been around other people who have bought cars.  I didn't personally complete a spot-delivery 2 weeks ago with 3rd party financing.  When this deal wasn't happening the finance guy had zero contact with said 3rd party.  There wasn't a 46-page thread here this past Feb where a spot-delivery deal fell through and the OP had to give the car back.  Your knowledge of the automobile sales industry, and likely everything else that could be discussed here, is beyond reproach.  I was wrong to question you.

This is exactly true. So are capitol ones, ect. But the loan is not approved until the dealer faxes in certain stipulations and it's verified. Also the vehicle has to meet certain criteria. I have worked many of these deals. It isn't approved until the money is in the account. I could submit everything and do all the paperwork on the car and let you leave with it. Then the next day or two the bank comes back and says we don't approve this. Then I have to go get the car back or have you bring it back in. Third party checks are a touchy area.

It would be hard to believe any dealership would just accept a pre approved loan check on face value like it was a certified check or a bank check.  Those things in my experience are just a prop like the fake diploma you get on stage.  

Those pre-approved checks are really just to give the dealer the information they need in order to contact your financial institution to A: ensure you're actually approved for the loan, then B: arrange for payment to the dealer.

Yeah that's typical. MOST Dealers can probably beat your rate that you got at your bank. So let them try. If they can't, then you have your rate from your bank.

But if they can, yeah the dealer makes a little (it's very little like $50-500) but so what..... You got a lower rate than you could get from your bank so it's a win-win.....

The only thing you did was possibly cost you money....so who is the moron? The dealer that offered you a chance to save some money in interest charges?????

I wouldn't hand over the keys until the check cleared either. Makes sense to me.
