STATE OF ALASKA                                                                  BILL NO. HB 136
2017 LEGISLATIVE SESSION
Analysis
   This bill amends AS 45.25, related to franchise agreements between manufacturers and new motor vehicle dealers. The
   bill adds new provisions relating to when good cause exists for termination of franchise agreements, and related to
   compensation for new motor vehicle dealers. The bill repeals and replaces AS 45.25.160, related to the transfer of a
   dealership to add more detail regarding the prevention or refusal to transfer a dealership. New sections, AS 45.25.200 and
   45.25.210, contain provisions related to payment of warranty claims. The bill repeals and replaces AS 45.25.300, that sets
   out prohibitions for manufacturers; prohibited acts include requiring or coercing a dealer to change locations, requiring a
   predetermined number or percentage of vehicles; failure to deliver or offer a dealer new motor vehicles, requiring
   unreasonable advertising displays, requiring a dealer to accept or order products (motor vehicles, accessories, advertising,
   for example), requiring contributions or participation to an advertising campaign, or requiring a dealer to increase the
   price of a new motor vehicle subject to a pending retail sale.
    The bill allows a private right of action between a manufacturer and a new motor vehicle dealer, which is consistent with
   current law. The Department of Law expects no fiscal impact if the bill becomes law.
