Incidental costs.
A.  Any vehicle protection product shall not be sold or offered
for sale in this state unless the warranty:
1.  States, “The obligations of the warrantor to the warranty
holder are guaranteed under a warranty reimbursement insurance
policy”, if the warrantor elects to meet its financial
responsibility obligations under paragraph 1 of Section 6 of this
act, or states, “The obligations of the warrantor under this

warranty are backed by the full faith and credit of the warrantor”,
if the warrantor elects to meet its financial responsibility
obligations under paragraph 2 of Section 6 of this act;
2.  States that in the event a warranty holder must make a claim
against a party other than the warranty reimbursement insurance
policy issuer, the warranty holder is entitled to make a direct
claim against the insurer upon the failure of the warrantor to pay
any claim or meet any obligation under the terms of the warranty
within sixty (60) days after proof of loss has been filed with the
warrantor, if the warrantor elects to meet its financial
responsibility obligations under paragraph 1 of Section 6 of this
act;
3.  States the name and address of the issuer of the warranty
reimbursement insurance policy, and this information need not be
preprinted on the warranty form, but may be added to or stamped on
the warranty, if the warrantor elects to meet its financial
responsibility obligations under paragraph 1 of Section 6 of this
act;
4.  Identifies the warrantor, the seller, and the warranty
holder;
5.  Sets forth the total product purchase price and the terms
under which it is to be paid; however, the purchase price is not
required to be preprinted on the vehicle protection product warranty
and may be negotiated with the consumer at the time of sale;
6.  Sets forth the procedure for making a claim, including a
telephone number;
7.  Specifies the payments or performance to be provided under
the warranty including payments for incidental costs, the manner of
calculation or determination of payments or performance, and any
limitations, exceptions or exclusions;
8.  Sets forth all of the obligations and duties of the warranty
holder, such as the duty to protect against any further damage to
the vehicle, the obligation to notify the warrantor in advance of
any repair, or other similar requirements, if any;
9.  Sets forth any terms, restrictions, or conditions governing
transferability and cancellation of the warranty, if any; and
10.  Contains a disclosure that reads substantially as follows:
“This agreement is a product warranty and is not insurance.”
B.  Incidental costs may be reimbursed under the provisions of
the warranty in either a fixed amount specified in the warranty or
sales agreement or by the use of a formula itemizing specific
incidental costs incurred by the warranty holder.
