This bill proposes to amend the definition of "consumer" under the Arizona Motor Vehicle Warranties Act. Currently, the definition includes only the purchaser of a motor vehicle, excluding those who lease vehicles. The new language would expand this definition to include lessees, thereby allowing them the same protections under the law as purchasers. The specific insertion modifies the existing definition by adding "or lessee of a motor vehicle" after "other than for the purposes of resale."

Additionally, the bill makes technical changes to the language of the statute but does not alter any other provisions of the current law. The changes would take effect on the general effective date if the bill is enacted. Overall, the bill aims to enhance consumer protections by ensuring that lessees are recognized as consumers under the warranty provisions.
