§2309 Procedures Applicable to Promulgation of Rules by Commission

Summary

The Commission must make rules under this chapter using the procedures in section 553 of title 5. It must let interested people speak in person as well as send written comments. A transcript of any oral presentation must be kept. Those rules can be reviewed by courts under section 57a(e) the same way as rules under section 57a(a)(1)(B), except section 57a(e)(3)(B) does not apply. Within one year after January 4, 1975, the Commission must start rulemaking about warranties and warranty practices for used motor vehicle sales. If needed to give consumers more protection, it must make rules on those warranties and practices. It may use any authority it has and may require a clear statement when a used vehicle is sold without any warranty, including the form and wording of that disclosure.
