Used Electric Vehicle Battery Disclosure Amendments
HB 427 requires dealers and private sellers to disclose specific battery information to buyers before selling used electric vehicles. This includes the battery's current condition (measured within 30 days), warranty status, and service history. Sellers who fail to provide these disclosures must pay buyers for actual damages, legal costs, and may face up to $2,500 in fines. The law takes effect on May 7, 2025, directly affecting consumers purchasing used EVs in Utah.
