HCS HB 281 -- MOTOR VEHICLE DEALERSHIPS (Weter)

COMMITTEE OF ORIGIN:  Committee on Transportation

This substitute requires any motor vehicle dealership which
requires warranty work and repairs to be completed by a
manufacturer-authorized dealership or repair facility and the
dealership or repair facility discontinues this service and no
other authorized dealership or repair facility is located within
75 miles of the dealership or repair facility to allow another
dealership or repair facility that is certified by the National
Institute for Automotive Service Excellence and is located within
75 miles to perform the warranty work and repairs.

Any dealership or repair facility completing warranty work is
allowed to use aftermarket parts if original equipment parts will
not arrive within five business days and the aftermarket parts
will be available before the original equipment parts.  The use
of aftermarket parts will not void the manufacturer's warranty
nor will aftermarket parts be covered by the manufacturer's
warranty.

FISCAL NOTE:  No impact on state funds in FY 2010, FY 2011, and
FY 2012.
