Motor Vehicle Dealers Compensation Fund

The Motor Vehicle Dealers Compensation Fund is a consumer protection mechanism to which every dealer must contribute when registering with OMVIC.

The fund was established to compensate – up to $15,000 – consumers who suffer a financial loss arising from a transaction with a registered motor vehicle dealer. The Compensation Fund's Board of Trustees examines each claim on an individual basis to determine if the claimant is entitled to compensation.
