Under What Circumstances Can You Get a Refund Plus Triple Compensation When Buying a Car?

[OTalia]

If a 4S store conceals the actual condition of the vehicle when selling it—such as selling a used car as new or a repaired vehicle as new—this constitutes fraud. In such cases, consumers can demand a refund plus triple compensation. Conditions for fraud include: 1. False information: This refers to the 4S store knowingly making false statements that could mislead consumers, either intentionally or recklessly. Intentional fraud involves two aspects: presenting false facts and inducing others into misunderstanding. 2. Committing fraudulent acts: Fraudulent acts refer to the 4S store deliberately stating false facts or concealing the truth to mislead consumers. Examples include misrepresenting counterfeit or substandard goods as high-quality and affordable, or intentionally hiding the true condition of the car without disclosure.
