Legislation (S.B. 1712) that requires consumer notification of vehicle warranty for aftermarket and recycled parts was signed into law by Governor Phil Murphy. The bill requires new car dealers to provide purchasers written notice that it is illegal for manufacturers or dealers to void a warranty or deny coverage because aftermarket or recycled parts were installed, or because someone other than the dealer performed service. The law takes effect immediately.
