Bill > HB894

This bill modifies several provisions related to the Motor Vehicles in Missouri. The key changes include: 1. Requiring all motor vehicle dealers licensed in Missouri to collect and remit the sales tax on motor vehicle sales, once a modernized technology system for vehicle titling and registration is developed and maintained. 2. Mandating that used motor vehicles be inspected and have a new inspection certificate obtained within 60 days prior to sale, except for vehicles with less than 40,000 miles in the 3 years after the model year. 3. Prohibiting certain entities from engaging in the retail sale of motor vehicles in Missouri if they are not properly licensed as a dealer or manufacturer under state law. 4. Modifying the requirements for how franchisors must compensate franchisees for warranty, preparation, delivery, and other services, including establishing reasonable compensation rates and timelines for payment. 5. Allowing franchisees to file complaints with the administrative hearing commission regarding adverse decisions by franchisors on reimbursement claims or requests for labor/parts rate increases, and establishing a process for the commission to review and rule on such complaints.
