(1) Reasons for Proposal
It is required for the dealer to notify the details of the motor vehicle’s performance inspection to the consumer before signing any contract. If the dealer violates the foregoing and fails to notify or falsely notifies such performance inspection, an administrative disposition is imposed. However, this Partial Amendment aims to strengthen the current punishment against the dealer’s violation of notifying performance inspection in an effort to protect consumers’ rights and interests and prevent any consumer harm. Furthermore, while the Motor Vehicle Management Act prepares the basis for administrative dispositions about the violation of the dealer and other motor vehicle management business entities, specific standards and details for such dispositions are missing. Hence, this Partial Amendment aims to supplement shortcomings in actual operations.

Strengthen administrative dispositions against the dealer who fails to notify or falsely notifies the details of performance inspection.
B. Supplement specific administrative disposition standards (attached Table 5)
Revise the legal reference for the violation by the dealer and other motor vehicle management business entities, and provide missing specifics about administrative dispositions.
