THINGS TO CONSIDER

No Cooling-Off Period

Under Ontario law, for every motor vehicle contract, there is a no cooling-off period. It is recommended that you are sure of the details before you sign; because the contract will be binding.

90-day Contract Cancellation

Before buying a vehicle, the dealer must provide you with precise information about the vehicle’s history and key features. If there’s any misleading information, you will have 90-days to cancel the agreement.

All-Inclusive Pricing

OMVIC requires all dealers who advertise a vehicle to provide an inclusive price. The only additional fees that you will need to pay are the taxes. Information such as if the vehicle was used as a police cruiser, a daily rental, taxi, limousine, or to provide emergency services, should also be included in any advertisements. Manufacturer ads are not obligated to show an all-inclusive price.

Dispute About Manufacturing Defects

If during the purchase of a new vehicle, you find a manufacturing defect, you can contact a free arbitration program called the Canadian Motor Vehicle Arbitration Plan (CAMVAP). The dealer must inform you if the vehicle you are buying qualifies for this program. CAMVAP will simplify the disputes about manufacturing defects.

File a Claim for Compensation

OMVIC requires all dealers who advertise a vehicle to provide an inclusive price. The only additional fees you pay are the taxes. Information such as if the vehicle was used as a police cruiser, a daily rental, taxi, limousine, or to provide emergency services, should also be included in the advertisements. Manufacturer ads are not obligated to show all-inclusive price.
