KENT, ENGLAND, September 30, 2010 /24-7PressRelease/ -- The Office of Fair Trading has reported an increase in the number of used car complaints from consumers, the number of reported complaints has risen to 38,000 during the first half of 2010. From the perspective of car dealers this is causing costs to rise and increases the importance of choosing the right Motor Trade Insurance policy.
Whilst reputable used car dealers, take every reasonable precaution with vehicles they sell - there is still the potential that a substantial claim could arise from a defective vehicle that has been sold or serviced by you. Therefore indemnity insurance cover on your Motor Trade policy can help protect against this potential risk to your trading activity.
In response to the recent increase in customer complaints, the OFT has launched a campaign to help customers better understand their rights when purchasing a vehicle. Most of the complaints recorded within the figures, have become apparent in the first three months. In such circumstances the dealer will often be responsible for fixing the issue, with no charge to the customer.
