Title 10, Chapter 1, Section 642
( 10-1-642)
Notwithstanding the terms, provisions, or conditions of any
agreement of franchise, a manufacturer or distributor selling motor
vehicles to dealers is liable for all damages to such motor vehicles
before delivery to a carrier or transporter. If a dealer selects
the carrier, the risk of loss passes to the dealer upon delivery of
the vehicle to the carrier. In every other instance, the risk of
loss remains with the franchisor until such time as the dealer or
his designee accepts the vehicle from the carrier. |
