For legislation relative to motor vehicle service contracts. Financial Services.
AI Summary
This bill amends existing law in Massachusetts to update the definition of "service contract" and clarify regulations related to motor vehicle service contracts. It defines key terms like "consumer product," "motor vehicle distributor," and "motor vehicle manufacturer." The bill also prohibits motor vehicle manufacturers, distributors, or franchise representatives from requiring dealers to exclusively sell service contracts or other products endorsed by the manufacturer. However, the bill allows manufacturers to provide incentives for dealers to voluntarily sell such products.
