What may OMVIC do when a complaint against a dealer or salesperson is filed?

  1. Only issue a written apology

  2. Attempt to resolve the complaint or issue a written warning

  3. Directly fine the customer

  4. Ignore minor complaints

The correct answer is: Attempt to resolve the complaint or issue a written warning

OMVIC is responsible for regulating the automotive sales industry in Ontario and ensuring consumer protection. When a complaint is filed against a dealer or salesperson, OMVIC may try to resolve the issue through mediation or negotiation. They may also issue a written warning to the dealer or salesperson if necessary. However, they do not have the authority to directly fine the customer and they take all complaints seriously, regardless of how minor they may seem. Therefore, options A, C, and D are incorrect.
