Select all that apply
Under section 32(3) of the MVDA, which of the following accurately describe the maximum penalties available on conviction for an MVDA offence such as curbsiding? Select all that apply.
Correct: A, B, D

The phrasing "two years less a day" is statutory; it is not "two years" or "five years," and imprisonment is on the table for individuals.

Correct answer: A

Paragraph 19 of section 42 of O. Reg. 333/08 sets the threshold at $3,000. If the total cost of repairs to fix incident damage exceeds that amount, the dealer must say so on the contract, and must state the actual cost if the dealer knows it.

Question 8
A customer cancels a sale under section 50 after trading in her 2018 sedan for a 2020 SUV; the dealer has already retailed the trade-in to a third party. What is the dealer required to do about the trade-in?
Correct answer: B
Subsection 50(15) of O. Reg. 333/08 says the dealer is not required to return the traded-in vehicle but must refund the amount paid for it, or the credit shown on the contract, under clause 50(10)(b) or 50(11)(b). Cancellation unwinds the dollars, not the trade-in vehicle itself.

Correct answer: A

Question 10
When does an ad for a used vehicle have to expressly state that the vehicle is used?
Correct answer: A
Section 36(6) of O. Reg. 333/08 triggers the explicit "used" disclosure only when the ad discloses a model year that is the current or immediately previous model year. Older model years do not trigger this specific labelling rule, though general false-advertising and contract-disclosure obligations still apply.
