Dixie Chrysler Ltd. is in a court-appointed receivership in Ontario, commenced 18 March 2025 under s. 243 of the BIA and provincial Judicature Act authority, and the proceeding remains active. Royal Bank of Canada, the first-in-time all-asset PPSA registrant and floorplan lender, demanded payment on 11 February 2025 of $10,471,062.46 as at 10 February 2025 across new and used floor plan, lease plan, daily rental and Visa facilities. RBC put unremitted floor-plan sale proceeds at $1,495,783.22 as of 6 February 2025 and $1,356,303.96 as of 24 February 2025, and says the value of its floorplan collateral fell by approximately $700,000 between January and March 2025. RBC registered security against all floorplan-financed vehicles on 24 March 2025 under a preservation protocol with Zeifman. Several parties sharing the surname of sole director Hugh F.P. Brennan appear on the service list as secured parties.
