Bill Summary

Relative to disclosure notice in the right to repair motor vehicle data law. Consumer Protection and Professional Licensure.

AI Summary

This bill amends the existing "right to repair motor vehicle data law" by requiring vehicle manufacturers to include a disclosure notice in the owner's manual for new motor vehicles starting with model year 2025. The notice must explain what vehicle telematics are, what mechanical data is collected and transmitted by the telematics system, the owner's ability to access this data through a mobile device, and the owner's right to authorize independent repair facilities to access the vehicle's mechanical data for diagnostic, repair, and maintenance purposes. The goal is to provide vehicle owners with more transparency and control over the data generated by their vehicles.
