The full assembly approved legislation to require new-car dealers to provide purchasers a written statement declaring it is illegal for manufacturers or dealers to void a warranty or deny coverage because aftermarket or recycled parts were installed.

Legislation to require new-car dealers to provide purchasers a written statement declaring it is illegal for manufacturers or dealers to void a warranty or deny coverage because aftermarket or recycled parts were installed was approved by the full assembly. The bill was amended to require the vehicle manufacturer to provide the written statement and not the dealer. The bill will now be sent to the Senate for consideration.
