Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Motor Vehicle Franchise Act. Provides additional findings that the regulation of motor vehicle manufacturers creates a system for servicing vehicles and complying with warranties. Provides that paying manufacturer's and distributor's fees under the Illinois Vehicle Code constitutes agreement with the terms of the Motor Vehicle Franchise Act. Limits the ability of a manufacturer to penalize a dealer if a customer resells or exports a vehicle. Limits a manufacturer from requiring dealer improvements or requiring that dealers use specific vendors for improvements. Effective immediately.

Senate Floor Amendment No. 3
Removes a provision deeming payment of fees under the Illinois Vehicle Code to be agreeing to be subject to the terms of the Motor Vehicle Franchise Act. Provides that it is an unfair practice to take (rather than take or threaten to take) adverse action against a dealer if a customer violated a prohibition on exporting a vehicle purchased from the dealer. Makes changes in provisions relating to facility alterations. Imposes limits on a manufacturer's or distributor's exercise of a right of first refusal when a dealership is sold or transferred. Removes a provision prohibiting direct sales by manufacturers.
