A warning to car buyers - beware of cowboys
20 September 2018
The number of unregistered motor vehicle traders in New Zealand is growing - largely due to the expanding online market.
Over the past 12 months, six traders have been banned due to serious breaches - including failing to comply with orders from the Motor Vehicle Disputes Tribunal.
Manager of Trading Standards at the MBIE Stephen O'Brien says more needs to be done to protect buyers.
He says buying a vehicle is one of the largest purchases a consumer will make, so it's vital they have confidence in the industry.
