Accessible Customer Service Plan
Clarington Honda is committed to excellence in serving all customers including people with disabilities.
- Assistive Devices: We will ensure that our staff is trained and familiar with various assistive devices that may be used by customers with disabilities while accessing our goods or services.
- Communication: We will communicate with people with disabilities in ways that take into account their disability.
- Service Animals: We welcome people with disabilities and their service animals. Service animals are allowed on the parts of our premises that are open to the public.
- Support Person: A person with a disability who is accompanied by a support person will be allowed to have that person accompany them on our premises.
- Notice of Temporary Disruption: In the event of a planned or unexpected disruption to services or facilities for customers with disabilities, Clarington Honda will notify customers promptly. This clearly posted notice will include information about the reason for the disruption, its anticipated length of time, and a description of alternative facilities or services, if available.
This notice will be placed at all main entrances to the building.
