The Motor Vehicle Open Recall Notice & Fair Compensation Act (A4380/ S3309) enjoys broad bi-partisan sponsorship and is supported by both auto retailers and union technicians.
The bill requires manufacturers create a more robust process to make owners aware of outstanding recalls and encourage them to get them fixed with no out-of-pocket cost to them.
Nearly half of all vehicles under recall never get repaired, including 1.4 million vehicles on New Jersey roads. The bill ensures more recalls are fixed, making the roads safer for ALL drivers.
For decades, manufacturers have shifted the cost of their vehicle defects to dealers, auto technicians and consumers. The bill ensures dealers and technicians are paid fairly to fix the manufacturers’ mistakes.
The majority of vehicles under recall are in a consumer’s garage or driveway. Unresolved recalls diminish the trade-in value of the vehicle. The bill encourages recall repairs are made, which protects the value of the vehicle.
