MS HB746

Allows motor vehicle dealers to establish their own labor rates and parts mark-ups for warranty work by submitting 100 sequential qualified repair orders or 90 days of repair orders to the manufacturer

Requires manufacturers to pay dealers the same labor rate and parts mark-up for warranty work that dealers charge retail customers, with the dealer's submitted rates presumed reasonable unless the manufacturer rebuts within 45 days

Creates a formal protest process allowing dealers to challenge manufacturer rejections of proposed warranty reimbursement rates before the Mississippi Motor Vehicle Commission, with the manufacturer bearing the burden of proof

Adds definitions for warranty-related terms including "pre-delivery preparation obligations," "warranty work," "repair order," "qualified repair," and "qualified repair order" to the Motor Vehicle Commission Law

Requires manufacturers to compensate dealers for reduced-cost or free parts used in warranty repairs based on the dealer's standard mark-up, and prohibits manufacturers from requiring unduly burdensome methods to establish reimbursement rates
