What if I don’t comply? As a consumer if you don’t comply you risk: Missing your warranty or rebate Possibly injuring yourself others Ruining your new purchase

Businesses Who Fail to Comply If a business fails to comply with laws or regulations, their penalties can be more serious… Loss of business or business’ reputation Possible lawsuits Fines from the government Loss of jobs (especially for those in charge) Even jail time!
