Compensation Claim Results

The Motor Dealer Customer Compensation Fundโ€ฏprovides compensation primarily to consumers who lost money because a motor dealer went out of business or has failed to meet certain legal obligations. โ€ฏThe money in the Fund comes from annual dealer contributions. โ€ฏOnly some types of losses are covered by the Fund. โ€ฏSince its inception in 1995, the Fund Board has adjudicated over 1,160 claims, of which 56% have been approved for compensation. Over $3.3 million has been paid to consumers over the last 28 years.
