This bill proposes updates to section 44-1261 of the Arizona Revised Statutes concerning motor vehicle warranties. The definition of "Consumer" will be expanded to include not only the purchaser or lessee of a motor vehicle but also any person to whom the vehicle is transferred during the warranty period, as well as anyone entitled to enforce the warranty obligations. This change aims to broaden the scope of who can be considered a consumer under the law.
Additionally, the bill removes the current exclusion that the provisions do not apply to sales of motor vehicles intended for resale for profit. However, it maintains the existing exclusions for vehicles with a declared gross weight over ten thousand pounds or those sold at public auctions. These updates are intended to enhance consumer protections related to motor vehicle warranties.
