According to the BBB Code of Advertising, "Advertisements should be truthful, sincere offers to sell. Advertisers have a responsibility to have substantiation for all claims made and should be able to provide that substantiation upon request. All advertising that may mislead or deceive consumers should be avoided." Section 28. Objective Superlative Claims states, in part, "Claims that relate to tangible qualities and performance values of a product or service can be used when the advertiser has substantiation." "As statements of fact, such claims as "#1 in new car sales in the city" can be proved or disproved."
As of September 14, 2023, the business has failed to substantiate, modify, or discontinue the advertised claims.
