Protect yourself. Read these important car-buying tips before you sign!
Thursday, December 22, 2016
Planning to deck the driveway with a new ride during the holiday season? Thinking about taking advantage of the flurry of Boxing Day promotions? OMVIC would like to gift you with some key holiday car-buying tips.
With holiday and boxing week sales in full swing, if you’re planning to purchase a vehicle and you come across a promotion that interests you, remember, all-in price advertising is the law for Ontario dealers – so keep a copy of the ad.
And while buying from an OMVIC-Registered Dealer is absolutely the safest way to acquire a vehicle, OMVIC offers these tips to help ensure your purchase is problem-free:
Remember, Ontario’s consumer protection laws only apply when you buy a vehicle from an OMVIC-Registered Dealer. If something goes wrong with a private purchase, you’re on your own with little recourse (other than to sue civilly).
Make your next vehicle purchase a merry one; get educated, know your rights and ask the right questions. For more car-buying advice, visit omvic.ca
