| 1 | AMENDMENT TO HOUSE BILL 3133
| ||||||
| 2 | AMENDMENT NO. ______. Amend House Bill 3133 by replacing | ||||||
| 3 | everything after the enacting clause with the following:
| ||||||
| 4 | "Section 5. The Illinois Insurance Code is amended by | ||||||
| 5 | changing Section 155.29 as follows:
| ||||||
| 6 | (215 ILCS 5/155.29) (from Ch. 73, par. 767.29)
| ||||||
| 7 | Sec. 155.29.
(a) Purpose. The purpose of this Section
is | ||||||
| 8 | to regulate the use of
aftermarket crash parts by requiring | ||||||
| 9 | disclosure when any use of
an aftermarket non-original | ||||||
| 10 | equipment manufacturer's crash part is proposed and by
| ||||||
| 11 | requiring that the manufacturers of such aftermarket crash | ||||||
| 12 | parts be identified.
| ||||||
| 13 | (b) Definitions. As used in this Section the following | ||||||
| 14 | terms have
the following meanings:
| ||||||
| 15 | "Aftermarket crash part" means a replacement for any of | ||||||
| 16 | the nonmechanical
sheet metal or plastic parts that generally | ||||||
| |||||||
| |||||||
| 1 | constitute the exterior of a
motor vehicle, including inner | ||||||
| 2 | and outer panels.
| ||||||
| 3 | "Non-original equipment manufacturer (Non-OEM) | ||||||
| 4 | aftermarket crash part"
means an aftermarket crash part not | ||||||
| 5 | made for or by the manufacturer of the motor vehicle.
| ||||||
| 6 | "Repair facility" means any motor vehicle dealer, garage, | ||||||
| 7 | body shop, or
other commercial entity that undertakes the | ||||||
| 8 | repair or replacement of those
parts that generally constitute | ||||||
| 9 | the exterior of a motor vehicle.
| ||||||
| 10 | "Installer" means an individual who actually does the work | ||||||
| 11 | of replacing
or repairing parts of a motor vehicle.
| ||||||
| 12 | (c) Identification. Any aftermarket crash part supplied by | ||||||
| 13 | a
non-original equipment manufacturer for use in this State | ||||||
| 14 | after the
effective date of this Act shall have affixed | ||||||
| 15 | thereto or inscribed thereon
the logo or name of its
| ||||||
| 16 | manufacturer. The manufacturer's logo or name shall be visible | ||||||
| 17 | after
installation whenever practicable.
| ||||||
| 18 | (d) Disclosure. No insurer shall specify the use of | ||||||
| 19 | non-OEM
aftermarket crash parts in the repair of an insured's | ||||||
| 20 | motor vehicle, nor
shall any repair facility or installer use | ||||||
| 21 | non-OEM aftermarket crash parts
to repair a vehicle unless the | ||||||
| 22 | customer is advised of that fact in
writing. In all instances | ||||||
| 23 | where an insurer intends that non-OEM
aftermarket crash parts | ||||||
| 24 | be used in the repair of a motor vehicle, the
insurer shall | ||||||
| 25 | provide the customer with the following information:
| ||||||
| 26 | (1) a written estimate that clearly identifies each | ||||||
| |||||||
| |||||||
| 1 | non-OEM aftermarket crash part; and
| ||||||
| 2 | (2) a disclosure settlement incorporated into or | ||||||
| 3 | attached to the
estimate that reads as follows: "This | ||||||
| 4 | estimate has been prepared based on
the use of crash parts | ||||||
| 5 | supplied by a source other than the manufacturer of
your | ||||||
| 6 | motor vehicle. Warranties applicable to these replacement | ||||||
| 7 | parts are
provided by the manufacturer or distributor of | ||||||
| 8 | these parts rather than the
manufacturer of your vehicle."
| ||||||
| 9 | (e) Procedures. No insurer shall specify the use of repair | ||||||
| 10 | procedures that are not in compliance with original equipment | ||||||
| 11 | manufacturer directives for those parts in the repair of an | ||||||
| 12 | insured's motor vehicle, and no insurer shall specify the use | ||||||
| 13 | of advanced driver assistance system calibration tools that | ||||||
| 14 | are not approved by the original equipment manufacturer for | ||||||
| 15 | such parts and repairs. However, this subsection does not | ||||||
| 16 | require the use of original equipment manufacturer repair | ||||||
| 17 | parts if the repair parts used are at least equal in like kind | ||||||
| 18 | and quality and are disclosed pursuant to this Section of the | ||||||
| 19 | Illinois Insurance Code. | ||||||
| 20 | (Source: P.A. 86-1234; 86-1475.)".
