  1. OMVIC's registration requirement applies to which of the following sellers?

    Answer: A dealer selling vehicles on consignment

    Dealers selling vehicles on consignment are engaged in the business of selling motor vehicles and must be registered with OMVIC.

  2. What does OMVIC require dealers to do when advertising a vehicle's price?

    Answer: Include all fees and charges in the advertised price or disclose them clearly

    OMVIC's advertising rules require that the total price including all mandatory fees be clearly stated or that all additional charges be prominently disclosed.

  3. A consumer who believes an OMVIC registrant acted dishonestly can seek civil remedies through:

    Answer: Ontario courts, independently of OMVIC

    Consumers can pursue civil remedies through the courts independently of any OMVIC regulatory action.

  4. Which OMVIC-administered program helps consumers verify that a dealer is currently registered?

    Answer: OMVIC's online dealer search tool

    OMVIC maintains a publicly accessible online dealer search that allows consumers to verify whether a dealer is currently registered.

  5. When a vehicle is sold 'as-is' by an OMVIC dealer, this means:

    Answer: The dealer is still obligated to disclose known material defects

    Even when selling as-is, a dealer must still disclose all known material defects — as-is does not eliminate the duty of honest dealing.

  6. What is the purpose of OMVIC's Registration Education Program (REP)?

    Answer: To train individuals seeking OMVIC registration on their legal obligations

    The REP is a mandatory education course that ensures all new registrants understand their obligations under the MVDA before they begin selling vehicles.
