If a salesperson omits to do something that causes the dealer to breach the Code of Ethics Regulations, this is seen as?

  1. A minor oversight

  2. Acceptable under certain circumstances

  3. A breach of the Code of Ethics by the salesperson

  4. Irrelevant to dealership operations

The correct answer is: A breach of the Code of Ethics by the salesperson

When a salesperson fails to follow the Code of Ethics Regulations, it is considered a breach of their responsibility and a violation of ethical standards. This option is the only one that accurately describes the situation and reflects the seriousness of the impact on the dealership and its customers. Options A, B, and D are incorrect because they do not hold the salesperson accountable for their actions, and may even suggest that the breach is insignificant or justified in certain situations. Therefore, option C is the most appropriate answer.
