What must all motor vehicle and power-sports dealers display at their principal place of business regarding working hours?

The requirement for all motor vehicle and power-sports dealers to display hours of operation at their principal place of business serves several important purposes. Primarily, it enhances transparency and accessibility, allowing customers to know when they can visit or contact the dealership for inquiries or purchases.

Displaying a sign indicating that the dealership will be open less than 40 hours a week provides clear communication to potential customers about the limited availability of the business. This information can help manage customer expectations and avoid confusion related to visiting hours. In a competitive market, being upfront about operating hours can also build trust with consumers who appreciate knowing when they can engage with the business.

Other options, such as displaying a sign with extensive vehicle listings or announcing service hours specifically, do not directly address the requirement for showing overall business hours. These alternatives may not fulfill the primary goal of ensuring customers are informed about when they can conduct business with the dealer.
