California dealers can set a total price once and carry it from the online listing to the desking proposal, at no additional cost.
BETTENDORF, Iowa, Oct. 6, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- ProMax today announced that tools for California's Combating Auto Retail Scams (CARS) Act, Senate Bill 766, were built into ProMax Complete ahead of the law's October 1, 2026 effective date. The tools cover total price disclosure, add-on disclosure, the three-day right to cancel on eligible used vehicles, and two-year record retention, and ProMax enables them for California dealerships at no additional cost.
Dealers set their total price once in inventory settings, and it recalculates automatically and travels with the vehicle through inventory syndication to the desk. A Total Price Disclosure proposal prints an itemized breakdown for the customer's signature, the three-day right to cancel form generates with the deadline and mileage limit filled in, and a new add-on consent and disclosure form keeps optional products from being pre-checked or marked as required. ProMax holds the pricing and customer communication records for two years, so if a dealership is audited, the logs are on file and available with one call.
"California changed what a dealer has to prove," said Greg Becker, Chief Operating Officer of ProMax. "We built these tools into the platform our California dealers already use, so the price they advertise is the price they present, and the record is there when someone asks for it."
ProMax recommends that each dealership review its configuration with its own legal counsel. Learn more at www.promaxunlimited.com.
