2/13/07-The Senate Transportation Committee killed a bill that would have extended protections under the state's Lemon Law to many commercial vehicles.
The Lemon Law in South Dakota applies for one year after a vehicle purchased for personal use is delivered to a buyer or the first 12,000 miles it's driven. If the vehicle cannot be repaired, the manufacturer must replace it with a new one or refund the buyer's money.
SB120 would have included vehicles weighing more than 10,000 pounds, with the exception of motor homes.
