Huronia Legislation will take the surprise out of car repairs Ontario car owners will be better protected now that a new motor vehicle repair law has been pas- sed, Consumer Minister William Wrye says. As of Oct. 1 the Motor Vehicle Repair Act will require mandatory warranties on new and recondition- ed parts and associated labor, writ- ten estimates on request and full disclosure of repair rates. "This new legislation will take the surprise element out of repair bills," said Wrye. The actual repair cost cannot ex- ceed 10 per cent of the written estimate without authorization and the repairer must offer return of removed parts to the consumer when the work is authorized. An important feature of this legislation is the stipulation that repair outlets cannot charge more to insurance companies than to in- dividual consumers. "This will help keep the costs of insurance down," said. the minister. After the job is completed, the repair outlet must provide the customer with an invoice showing the date, the name and address of both consumer and repairer, licence number and other parti- culars of the vehicle, odometer reading, description of work per- formed, a listing of all parts install- ed and their price, the number of hours billed and subsequent cost, total amount of invoice and terms of the warranty. Should the vehicle become un- safe or inoperable while the war- ranty is in force, consumers will be able to recover original charges. The original repairer will be given the first opportunity to rectify the problem, only if it is practical for the consumer. (ALLANDALE SELECT USED CARS 734-1200.
