AI Summary

  • Requires vehicles with connected services to clearly notify occupants when someone outside the vehicle accesses location tracking or remote control features, addressing technology-enabled stalking by abusive partners

  • Mandates vehicle manufacturers provide a prominent "HOW TO DISCONNECT REMOTE VEHICLE ACCESS" website link allowing drivers to terminate another person's remote access within 2 business days by submitting VIN and proof of legal possession (title, court order, or domestic violence restraining order)

  • Prohibits providers from charging fees, requiring account holder approval, or sharing driver information with terminated users; court orders awarding vehicle possession take priority over joint title ownership

  • Requires vehicles with location tracking to include an easy-to-use in-vehicle mechanism to immediately disable location access without needing apps, passwords, or account creation—and disabling must not trigger any notification to the account holder

  • Applies to vehicles with connected services effective November 1, 2025, with location access requirements phased in by July 1, 2026 for updatable vehicles and January 1, 2028 for newly manufactured vehicles; rental vehicles are exempt
