SSB 3124 Iowa Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

A bill for an act providing for the repair of a diesel exhaust fluid system that is part of farm equipment, and providing penalties.

This bill requires original farm equipment manufacturers to provide farm equipment owners (including lessees and licensees) with diagnostic and repair information, replacement parts, and diagnostic tools for diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) systems on the same terms and conditions as they offer to authorized repair providers. It ensures owners access these resources without extra cost, prohibits manufacturers from charging owners more for information sold to authorized providers at better rates, and voids agreement clauses that waive these rights. The bill does not compel manufacturers to disclose trade secrets or override all existing agreements. Enforcement falls to the attorney general, with penalties for violations.
