Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Illinois Vehicle Code. Requires that applications for certificate of title for a motor vehicle shall be verified by the National Motor Vehicle Title Information System (NMVTIS) for a vehicle history report prior to the Secretary of State issuing a certificate of title. Provides that applications for a certificate of title or a salvage certificate that are verified by the NMVTIS and are returned with a warning or error shall be reviewed by the Secretary as to whether the warning or error warrants a change to the type of title or brand that is issued to a motor vehicle. Provides for the type of title or brand that is to be issued to a motor vehicle if the application is returned with an NMVTIS warning or error. Allows applicants to contest the Secretary's title or certificate designation by request of an administrative hearing. Requires that applications for a salvage certificate for a motor vehicle shall be verified by the NMVTIS for a vehicle history report prior to the Secretary issuing a salvage certificate. Provides that refunds may be granted for any title-related transaction if a title application has not been processed by the Secretary. Provides that an applicant for a certificate of title or a salvage certificate shall have 6 months to apply for a refund of cost, or the difference of the certificate of title or salvage certificate if an application is verified by the NMVTIS, and a warning or error is received reporting the vehicle as requiring either a salvage certificate or a junk certificate. Effective immediately.

House Floor Amendment No. 1
Adds reference to:
P.A. 98-176, Sec. 99

Replaces everything after the enacting clause. Amends the Illinois Vehicle Code. Retains provisions of the bill with changes to a Section concerning application for certificates of title or salvage certificates for a motor vehicle and verification by the National Motor Vehicle Title Information System (NMVTIS). Provides that if the Secretary of State needs supplemental information to verify or corroborate the information received from a NMVTIS report, then the Secretary may use any available commercial title history services or other Secretary of State resources to assist in determining the vehicle's proper designation. Provides that any motor vehicle application for a certificate of title or a salvage certificate that another state has previously issued a title or brand indicating that the status of the motor vehicle is equivalent to a junk vehicle shall receive a title with a "prior out of state junk" brand if that history item was issued 120 months or more before the date of the submission of the current application for title. Provides that any motor vehicle application for a certificate of title or a salvage certificate that is returned with a NMVTIS warning or error indicating that another state has previously issued a title or brand indicating the status of the motor vehicle is equivalent to a junk vehicle shall be issued a junk certificate that reflects the motor vehicle's structural history, if the previously issued title or brand from another state was issued less than 120 months before the date of the submission of the current application for title. Amends Public Act 98-176, as amended by Public Act 98-722, to change the effective date of Public Act 98-176 to July 1, 2015 (rather than July 8, 2015).
