H 424 Massachusetts House · 194th Legislature (2025-2026)

An Act relative to consumer protection on online automobile franchise transactions

HD 1912 creates an exception to certain consumer protection rules for online car sales. It applies when a licensed dealer sells a new or used vehicle and the buyer signs an electronic contract away from the dealership, but only if the seller provides written notice at the time of sale that the exception applies. This directly affects buyers and dealers conducting off-site electronic vehicle transactions. The bill does not change existing protections for in-person sales or other transaction types.
