Requires a finding that notice was timely given and that a violation occurred before imposition of any penalty under the chapter. Permits the DMV to issue written warnings and engage in settlement agreements and consent orders prior or subsequent to any hearing held on violations of Chapter 20 or rules under that chapter. Prohibits issuing a written waring unit a written notice of the complain has been furnished to the licensee and a hearing has been held.

Replaces the deleted requirement with a new procedure where the dealer executes the manufacturer’s certificate of origin or the certificate of title, and the purchaser or lessee is responsible for informing their insurer that the purchaser’s/lessee’s financing has been approved.

Also amends the conditions to be met to specify that the hearing held by the DMV on the application must be no earlier than 30 days after the application notice is published in the Carolina Register. Makes a clarifying change from submission to receipt in subdivision (a)(2) of that section. Changes to GS 20-288 are effective on July 1, 2023, and apply to applications submitted after that date.
