1. Encourage, aid or abet a dealer to sell or lease vehicles through any false, deceptive or misleading sales or financing practice.

2. Refuse to deliver an order of a dealer within 60 days after the order is received in writing unless the inability to deliver the order is caused by shortage or curtailment of material, labor, production capacity, transportation or utility services, or to any labor or production difficulty, or to any cause beyond the reasonable control of the manufacturer or distributor.

3. Coerce, compel or otherwise require any dealer to pay over or to repay any amount of money or other consideration which is in substantiation of or repayment for any advertising, promotional activity or scheme, or method of implementing the sale or lease of vehicles.

(a) Discriminate, directly or indirectly, against a dealer;

(b) Take any action to terminate a dealer’s franchise; or

(c) Refuse to consent to the designation of a successor, refuse to honor a right of succession set forth in a franchise or refuse to approve the transfer of a controlling interest in a dealership.
