Ohio SB458 regulates rates for warranty-like repairs by watercraft dealers.

Ohio SB458 sets guidelines for rates charged by watercraft dealers for warranty-like diagnosis, labor, and parts for nonwarranty work. It mandates that dealers submit repair orders to manufacturers for rate calculations. Manufacturers must include all incidental tasks in their calculations and cannot penalize dealers for exercising their rights. The bill also prohibits manufacturers from requiring burdensome methods for rate calculations and from unilaterally setting rates for dealers.
