Bill Summary

To protect consumers by replacing a vague dealer conveyance fee that is added to the sale price of a motor vehicle at the time of purchase with a specific dealer conveyance fee or fees based on the actual conveyance process from dealer to consumer.

AI Summary

This bill seeks to modify existing law regarding car dealer fees by prohibiting a general, vague "dealer conveyance fee" that is currently added to a vehicle's sale price. Instead, the bill requires car dealers to provide a detailed breakdown of specific costs associated with transferring (or "conveying") a vehicle from the dealer to the consumer. By mandating itemization of these specific conveyance-related expenses on the sale order and invoice, the legislation aims to increase transparency for car buyers and prevent dealers from charging ambiguous or inflated fees. The bill represents a consumer protection measure designed to give purchasers a clearer understanding of the actual costs involved in buying a motor vehicle, ensuring that any fees charged are legitimately tied to the specific services involved in transferring vehicle ownership from the dealer to the customer.
