Practice question

How should pending recalls be disclosed when selling a used vehicle for which the dealer is franchised?

  1. By providing a verbal notice during the sale
  2. By including a written notice as part of the sales contract
  3. By updating the dealership's website
  4. By posting a notice on the dealership's bulletin board

Answer: B — By including a written notice as part of the sales contract

Pending recalls should be disclosed in writing as part of the sales contract when selling a used vehicle for which the dealer is franchised. This is to ensure that the customer has a record of the disclosure and can refer to it if needed. Providing a verbal notice may not be sufficient as it may not be documented and easily accessible. Updating the dealership's website or posting a notice on the bulletin board may not reach all potential customers and may not serve as an official disclosure.
