The National Conference of Insurance Legislators (NCOIL) Property and Casualty Insurance Committee Spring 2010 meetings will be held March 5-7 in Isle of Palms, S.C. The Automotive Service Association (ASA) has asked repairers to contact state legislators who serve on this committee prior to the meetings regarding an aftermarket parts model act that is on NCOIL’s agenda. The meetings commence March 5.

ASA has asked repairers to contact committee members in opposition to the Model Act Regarding Motor Vehicle Crash Parts and Repair. This model act has several key provisions that are harmful to the automotive repair industry. These provisions include the current language on certified replacement crash parts and their equivalency to OEM parts, the lack of required written consent by the consumer for the use of replacement crash parts as well as other concerns and language in Section 6, Choice of Repair Facility.

Repairers can visit ASA’s legislative Web site at www.TakingTheHill.com, to contact their state legislators, who are on the committee regarding this proposed NCOIL model act. The letter can be found in the Current Alerts section. A list of state legislators serving on the committee follows:
