Illegal Sale of Used Cars Continue (El Sol de Tijuana, 1/23/13 by Juan Guizar)
Tijuana, BC - The Chamber of Commerce of Tijuana demanded relevant authorities put an end to the excessive and illegal sale of cars at various points in the city where they increasingly offer newer model vehicles without any Government control.
Gilberto Leyva Camacho, Vice President of the Camaral Agency, said it is alarming that more than 400,000 cars, i.e. six of every 10, that are circulating are of questionable legality without anyone doing anything.
In various parts of the city there are sales areas, sometimes using abandoned or rented premises and on other occasions at most sidewalks are used. This is a problem that has already been addressed and for political reasons, due to bad decisions of Government, still continues to serve as a theme for ongoing illegal activity. During some trips we have made, said Leyva, we have found recent model vehicles on sale. Currently, any vehicles that are for sale must be 2008 and newer to be imported.
A Canaco representative will again travel to Mexico City in order to demand recognition of these operations and stop the highly illegal and unregulated trade of cars, as well as a reduction of the estimated costs for modifications to NOM-041, along with a reprieve in order to expedite procedures and fairer payments in the purchase of foreign vehicles. http://www.oem.com.mx/elsoldetijuana/notas/n2853106.htm
