Section 9-32-13-18 - Selling motor vehicle to unlicensed person for resale; adverse action or discrimination against customer when customer intends to resell motor vehicle or export to foreign country(a) It is an unfair practice for a distributor to sell a motor vehicle for resale to a person not licensed under this article.(b) This subsection applies if a dealer sells or leases a motor vehicle to a customer that resells the motor vehicle or exports the motor vehicle to a foreign country. A manufacturer or distributor may not take or threaten to take adverse action or otherwise discriminate against the dealer unless the dealer knew or reasonably should have known before the dealer sold or leased the motor vehicle to the customer that the customer intended to resell or export the motor vehicle. Titling and registering a motor vehicle in any state in the name of the customer to whom the dealer sold or leased the motor vehicle establishes a rebuttable presumption that the dealer did not know or should not reasonably have known that the customer intended to resell or export the motor vehicle.(c) For purposes of subsection (b), adverse actions by a manufacturer or distributor include the following conduct by a manufacturer or distributor, whether actual or threatened: (1) Failing or refusing to allocate, sell, or deliver a motor vehicle to the dealer.(2) Discriminating against the dealer in the allocation of motor vehicles.(3) Charging back or withholding payments or other consideration for which a dealer is eligible under a warranty reimbursement, sales promotion, incentive program, or contest.(4) Disqualifying a dealer from participating in a sales promotion, incentive program, or contest.(5) Terminating a franchise.Amended by P.L. 151-2015, SEC. 74, eff. 7/1/2015.Amended by P.L. 152-2013, SEC. 1, eff. 7/1/2013.Added by P.L. 92-2013, SEC. 78, eff. 7/1/2013.
