Requires notice of motor vehicle safety recalls upon inspection and registration of motor vehicle; requires motor vehicle manufacturers to pay annual fee to MVC in certain circumstances.*
This bill requires New Jersey motor vehicle inspection facilities and the Motor Vehicle Commission (MVC) to notify vehicle owners about active safety recalls during inspections and registration. Owners would receive written notices describing each recall and confirming repairs can be done at no cost by authorized dealers. The requirement applies only to recalls needing physical fixes (excluding buybacks or manual labeling issues). The bill does not change manufacturers' liability for recalls but protects MVC staff from liability for notices (except in cases of gross negligence).
