Arbitration of disputes may be submitted, filing fee, procedure
This law is about settling arguments between car buyers and car makers in Missouri. A car buyer can ask for a neutral third party (called an arbitrator) to settle their dispute by paying a small fee — and the car maker has to go along with it. Both sides get to share their side of the story and respond to what the other side says. This law does not take away any other rights a car buyer already has, and any agreement that tries to make a buyer give up these rights means nothing.
