Modifies provisions relating to franchisors' warranty duties to franchisees

HB 1914 modifies Missouri law to require franchisors to clearly outline in writing to franchisees in Missouri what warranty service obligations the franchisee must perform. It mandates that franchisors fairly compensate franchisees for warranty-related work (parts and labor) based on the franchisee's own standard non-warranty rates for similar services. Specifically, parts compensation must match what the franchisee charges retail customers for non-warranty parts, and labor compensation must equal the franchisee's regular non-warranty labor rate multiplied by actual repair time. The bill also requires franchisors to cover recall repair costs under these same compensation rules and sets time limits for processing franchisee claims. This directly affects franchisees (e.g., auto dealers, restaurant operators) who provide warranty service under franchisor agreements in Missouri.
