Total Loss Brand Title Motor Vehicle

Type Bill
Session 2016 Regular Session
Subjects
Business & Economic Development Transportation & Motor Vehicles

Concerning the addition of a brand to designate a certificate of title to a motor vehicle that has been the subject of an insurance claim, and, in connection therewith, making an appropriation.

Bill Summary:

Currently, a motor vehicle title is branded when certain events that negatively affect the vehicle's title occur. The bill adds a total loss brand when the motor vehicle has been:
  • Found to need repairs whose cost exceeds the value of the vehicle; or
  • Designated as a total loss by an insurer under the terms of its policy as a result of the vehicle being damaged.
The bill clarifies that a motor vehicle that is designated as a total loss and also qualifies as a salvage vehicle will be branded as a salvage vehicle.

When the department of revenue issues a new title with the total loss or salvage brand, it also notifies the owner and senior lienholder.

Collector's item and street rod vehicles are exempt.

$97,142 is appropriated to the department of revenue from the Colorado state titling and registration account in the highway users tax fund to implement the bill.

(Note: This summary applies to the reengrossed version of this bill as introduced in the second house.)
