H.B. 6091: COMMITTEE SUMMARY VEHICLE RECORDS: AIR BAGS
House Bill 6091 (as passed by the House) Sponsor: Representative Terry London House Committee: Transportation
Senate Committee: Transportation and Tourism
Date Completed: 12-4-96
The bill would amend the Motor Vehicle Service and Repair Act to require a facility that repaired or replaced air bags in a motor vehicle to maintain for at least five years a record of the purchase or sale of each used or reconditioned air bag purchased or acquired by the facility.
The record would have to contain the date of purchase or acquisition of each air bag, a description of each air bag, the identification number assigned to each air bag, and the name and address of the person to or from whom each air bag had been purchased, acquired, or sold. The record of the sale, purchase, or acquisition of each air bag would have to be maintained in or attached to a police book, as described in the Michigan Vehicle Code. The facility’s police book and the record of air bag sales, purchases, or acquisitions would have to be made available immediately for inspection by the administrator (the Secretary of State or his or her designee) and other law enforcement officials after a request for inspection had been made.
