Which of the following is NOT typically a role of an OMVIC investigator?

In the context of the responsibilities of OMVIC investigators, the role that is not typically associated with them is that of inspecting dealer's premises and records. OMVIC (Ontario Motor Vehicle Industry Council) investigators focus on addressing consumer complaints, gathering evidence, and laying charges when necessary as part of their mandate to uphold the Motor Vehicle Dealers Act and protect consumers.

Their primary responsibilities include conducting thorough investigations based on complaints received, which may involve collecting evidence and interviewing relevant parties to establish the nature of the complaint. They also have the authority to lay charges if their findings warrant such action, ensuring that any violations of the law are addressed.

However, the actual inspection of dealer premises and records is generally within the purview of regulatory or licensing authorities, rather than the investigators' direct role. Investigators may review documentation and evidence gathered during investigations, but proactive inspections of premises are not a standard function of their duties, thus making this option the correct answer.
