MN HF4155

Amends Minnesota Statutes section 72A.201, subdivision 6, to add a new prohibition against insurers denying payment for motor vehicle repairs performed in accordance with manufacturer specifications.

Defines "vehicle manufacturer's repair specifications" as technical repair procedures, processes, specifications, techniques, and tolerances from recall notices, bulletins, directives, and other authoritative instructions provided to repair shops and insurers.

Requires insurers to provide coverage for reasonable repair costs associated with meeting vehicle manufacturer's repair specifications and establishes that repair shops must provide documentation of manufacturer specifications upon insurer request.

Clarifies that insurer obligations to cover manufacturer-specified repairs do not override existing requirements under the bill regarding parts selection, which remains governed by other policy provisions.
