AN ACT relating to motor vehicle dealers.

Summary

The bill rewrites Kentucky law so that vehicle makers and distributors, not the dealers, are liable for defending and paying for warranty, recall and defect claims. Dealers are to be compensated based on the rates they charge retail customers, including parts, labor, training and tool expenses. This shifts the financial risk of vehicle defects from dealers to manufacturers.
