Buying a Car > Basics of Purchase and Sale Contracts > Dealership Negotiations
Our thanks to Mr. Eric Lai and the Toronto Star Wheels section for allowing us to provide a response to one of their reader’s questions last Saturday, July 11, 2009. The article is here and also in PDF format.
In Ontario, car buyers should review the Sale of Goods Act when dealing with new car and used car purchase and sale contractual disputes.
If the buyer here had felt that his/her case was strong, a lawsuit could have been started in Small Claims Court. For background, you can refer to our April 13 blog.
The reader could also consider a complaint to OMVIC (Ontario Motor Vehicle Industry Council) but they may not be of much assistance here. The OMVIC has a broad range of responsibilities, with an emphasis on ensuring that dealerships follow the industry regulations.
Our thanks again to Mr. Eric Lai and the Toronto Star Wheels section for allowing us to participate.
