What must advertisements not do according to the Code of Ethics Regulations?

  1. Use bright colors

  2. Contain ambiguous, misleading or deceptive statements

  3. Mention the dealership’s location

  4. Include the vehicle’s price

The correct answer is: Contain ambiguous, misleading or deceptive statements

Advertisements must not contain ambiguous, misleading, or deceptive statements according to the Code of Ethics Regulations. This ensures that the information presented in an advertisement is clear and accurate for consumers to make informed decisions. Options A, C, and D are incorrect because they are not explicitly prohibited by the regulations. While the use of bright colors, mentioning the dealership's location, and including the vehicle's price may be discouraged in some cases, they are not explicitly stated as violations in the Code of Ethics Regulations. Therefore, option B is the most accurate choice as it directly contradicts one of the regulations.
