AI Summary
This bill aims to update the definition of "service contract" in Massachusetts law to include additional types of contracts related to motor vehicle repair and maintenance. It also prohibits motor vehicle manufacturers, distributors, or franchisors from requiring dealers to exclusively sell service contracts or similar products offered or endorsed by the manufacturer, distributor, or franchisor. The bill provides exemptions from the service contract regulations for certain types of warranty and maintenance agreements, including those offered by public utilities, insurers, and motor vehicle manufacturers themselves.
