The Hutchinson News reports that Nicholas Ford, owner and president of Central RV in Ottawa Kansas has agreed to pay $30,000 in civil penalties and $10,000 in investigation costs resulting from violations of the state’s consumer protection laws. Kansas Attorney General Derek Schmidt said the charges involved selling salvage recreational vehicles without disclosing that status to buyers as required by law. Central RV also was found to be involved in other practices that are prohibited in Kansas, including selling recreational vehicles “with all faults” and excluding an implied warranty.
As part of the judgment, the company agreed not to violate the Kansas Consumer Protection Act and to comply with Kansas statutes related to dealer licensing, sales, sales reporting, titles and registration. An additional $131,000 in additional civil penalties were suspended on condition that the company comply with the court order.
