The legislation gives manufacturers the option of fulfilling their warranty notice requirements by posting the information on their website. Loebsack was the lead Democratic cosponsor and joined with Congressman Markwayne Mullin (OK-02) to introduce the bill.I am pleased this bipartisan legislation, which includes a commonsense update to our nations decades old warranty requirements, is now law, said Loebsack. This bill allows manufacturers to post warranty information online and give consumers easy access to written warranties.If manufacturers choose to meet their warranty notification requirements by posting the information on their website, it must be in an accessible, conspicuous digital format. Manufacturers must also provide consumers with information on how to access the online warranty and obtain a paper copy, either by including instructions on the product packaging or in the product manual. The bill makes no changes to the rules regarding the content of warranty information. | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
