The auto manufacturers have filed a lawsuit that threatens to reduce your “retail” parts income substantially! If you are being reimbursed under F.S. 320.696, the new retail for warranty parts law, you could lose this revenue and revert back to the old payment system.

For many years until 2006, manufacturers had been reimbursing Florida dealers the retail rates for labor in warranty repairs. Following some hard fought legislative battles, in 2008 the Legislature passed into law SB 2582, which established a clear process of how to determine the retail rate for parts for the purpose of warranty repair reimbursement. This resulted in the Alliance of Automobile Manufacturers, the trade association for manufacturers, filing a lawsuit challenging the constitutionality of certain provisions of this new law. FADA is now a major party in this suit.
