What it does

(1) Existing law, as of July 1, 2012, prohibits a dealer from displaying or offering for sale at retail a used vehicle unless the dealer first obtains a vehicle history report from the National Motor Vehicle Title Information System (NMVTIS) . If the NMVTIS report indicates that the vehicle is or has been a junk or salvage automobile, or the vehicle has been reported as such by a junk or a salvage yard, or an insurance carrier, or the certificate of title contains a brand, a dealer is required to post a specified disclosure and provide the retail purchaser with a copy of the report upon request prior to sale. A violation of the Vehicle Code is a crime.
