HB 18-1354, also known as the Powersports Vehicle Written Warranties bill, clarifies that manufacturers and distributors of powersports vehicles must honor any written warranties they provide. This means that if you buy a snowmobile, ATV, or similar vehicle with a warranty, the company is legally required to fix it or replace parts as promised.
