Bill Overview

Analyzed Economic Effects

5 provisions identified: 1 benefits, 2 costs, 2 mixed.

Single-line dealers lose protections

Starting November 1, 2025, you count as a single-line dealer if 75% or more of your new equipment comes from one supplier and your five-year average yearly purchases from that supplier exceed $25 million. The $25 million amount increases each year by the Producer Price Index. If you are single-line, the law’s supplier notice, cure, and transfer timing rules do not apply to your agreement. The law’s good-cause and dealer-notice termination protections also do not apply to single-line dealer agreements.

Stronger dealer termination and transfer protections

Starting November 1, 2025, suppliers can end a dealer agreement only for good cause, and dealers must give 30 days’ notice to end one. In most cases, the supplier must give 180 days’ written notice and 60 days to fix the issue; if fixed, the notice is void. This notice-and-cure does not apply for serious reasons like unauthorized ownership transfer, bankruptcy, abandonment, or certain crimes. For poor performance, suppliers (except specialty agricultural suppliers) must give two years’ notice, which ends if standards are met. If the supplier can approve a sale or transfer, it must decide within 60 days after getting required information or approval is automatic; after a dealer’s death, the estate has 180 days to request a transfer and termination is delayed during that time.

Big suppliers can require separation

Starting November 1, 2025, suppliers still cannot force you to refuse competing equipment. But if 80% or more of your new equipment comes from one supplier and yearly purchases from it exceed $40 million (indexed), that supplier can require separate facilities, financial statements, or sales staff for major competing lines. The supplier must give at least three years’ notice.

Changes take effect Nov. 1, 2025

The law takes effect November 1, 2025. All the rules above apply starting that date.

Indexed thresholds and parts pricing rules

Starting November 1, 2025, the law sets a “threshold amount” as the smaller of 10% of the dealer’s prior-year gross sales or $350,000, with the $350,000 adjusted each year by the Producer Price Index. It also defines the price for superseded repair parts after a dealer agreement ends as the supplier’s price list at termination for the equivalent part under a new number.
