What it does

Code chapter 322G (defective motor vehicles —— lemon law) sets forth a consumer’s right to obtain repairs to, replacement of, or a refund on the purchase price of a defective motor vehicle. The Code chapter also sets forth the duties of motor vehicle manufacturers, informal dispute settlement procedures, and certain other matters related to such rights.2 defines “motor vehicle” to exclude certain types of vehicles, including motorcycles and autocycles. This bill strikes motorcycles and autocycles from the exclusion, thereby making the provisions of Code chapter 322G applicable to motorcycles and autocycles.
