Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 13 / Tuesday, January 21, 2014 / Notices
consent order from Mohammad Sabha,
also d/b/a Rainbow Auto Sales. The
proposed consent order has been placed
on the public record for thirty (30) days
for receipt of comments by interested
persons. Comments received during this
period will become part of the public
record. After thirty (30) days, the FTC
will again review the agreement and the
comments received, and will decide
whether it should withdraw from the
agreement and take appropriate action
or make final the agreement’s proposed
order.
The respondent operates a motor
vehicle dealership. According to the
FTC complaint, the respondent has
advertised cars for sale. The complaint
alleges that the respondent’s
advertisements feature photographs of
numerous cars, with a price
prominently displayed below each car,
and that the respondent has advertised
that each car is available for purchase at
the price that is prominently displayed
below the car. The complaint alleges
that, in fact, the featured cars are not
available for purchase at the prices that
are displayed below each car, and that,
instead, the purchase price of each car
is actually $5,000 more than the
advertised price.
The proposed order is designed to
prevent the respondent from engaging in
similar deceptive practices and law
violations in the future. Part I.A
prohibits the respondent from
misrepresenting the cost of purchasing a
vehicle, including but not necessarily
limited to (1) the purchase price of the
vehicle, or (2) any finance terms,
including the amount or percentage of
the downpayment, the number of
payments or period of repayment, the
amount of any payment, and the
repayment obligation over the full term
of the loan, including any balloon
payment. Part I.B prohibits the
respondent from misrepresenting any
other material fact about the price, sale,
financing, or leasing of any vehicle.
Part II of the proposed order requires
the respondent to keep copies of
relevant advertisements and materials
substantiating claims made in the
advertisements. Part III requires that the
respondent provide copies of the order
to certain personnel. Part IV requires
notification to the Commission
regarding changes in the respondent’s
business activities or employment, or
his affiliation with any new business or
employment. Part V requires the
respondent to file compliance reports
with the Commission. Finally, Part VI is
a provision ‘‘sunsetting’’ the order after
twenty (20 years, with certain
exceptions.
