Traders – What are your responsibilities?
Motor vehicle traders have a number of responsibilities to consumers under the Motor Vehicle Sales Act 2003 (MVSA).
Traders who do not meet their responsibilities may find themselves the subject of a complaint.  There are a number of offences under the MVSA where complaints can be investigated, including:
  • Carrying on the business of motor trading without being registered
  • Tampering with odometers
  • Failure to display a Consumer Information Notice
  • Providing false or misleading information on a statutory declaration.
