  1. A dealer knowingly sells a vehicle with a salvage title without disclosing it to the buyer. Under the MVDA, the buyer's most likely remedy is:

    Answer: Rescission of the contract and a full refund through the Motor Vehicle Dealers Compensation Fund

    OMVIC's Motor Vehicle Dealers Compensation Fund provides recourse for buyers who suffer financial loss due to dealer fraud or misrepresentation.

  2. Which detail about a buyer's trade-in is a dealer legally required to include in the bill of sale?

    Answer: The trade-in allowance (agreed value of the trade-in)

    The agreed trade-in allowance (value credited to the buyer) must appear on the bill of sale as it directly affects the net purchase price.

  3. A dealer is required to provide a Safety Standards Certificate for a used vehicle sold in Ontario. Who is authorized to issue this certificate?

    Answer: A licensed motor vehicle inspection station approved by the Ministry of Transportation

    Safety Standards Certificates in Ontario can only be issued by a motor vehicle inspection station licensed by the Ministry of Transportation.

  4. Under OMVIC regulations, what happens if a dealer advertises a vehicle at one price but the bill of sale reflects a higher price?

    Answer: The advertised price is generally what the buyer is entitled to pay

    Charging more than the advertised price is a violation of OMVIC's advertising standards; buyers are entitled to the advertised all-in price.

  5. A buyer discovers after purchase that the vehicle had been a daily rental previously — a fact the dealer knew but did not disclose. Which OMVIC rule was violated?

    Answer: The mandatory disclosure requirement for prior use as a daily rental vehicle

    Prior use as a daily rental is one of the specifically mandated disclosures under OMVIC regulations that must be made before completing the sale.

  6. How long must an OMVIC-registered dealer retain copies of bills of sale and related transaction records under the MVDA?

    Answer: 3 years

    The MVDA requires registered dealers to retain all transaction records including bills of sale for a minimum of 3 years for compliance and audit purposes.

  7. A customer test drives a vehicle and verbally agrees to purchase it. The salesperson prepares a bill of sale but the customer leaves before signing. Is there a binding contract?

    Answer: No, a motor vehicle sale contract is not binding until it is signed in writing by both parties

    Under the MVDA, motor vehicle sale contracts must be in writing and signed by both parties to be enforceable.
