13-14-309. Change in distribution plan.
If there is a change in the plan of distribution of a line make that contemplates a
continuation of that line make in the state, a manufacturer or distributor may not directly or
indirectly, through the action of any parent of the manufacturer or distributor, subsidiary of the
manufacturer or distributor, or common entity cause a termination, cancellation, or nonrenewal
of a dealer franchise agreement by a present or previous manufacturer or distributor unless, by
the effective date of the action the manufacturer or distributor offers the new motor vehicle
dealer whose dealer franchise agreement is terminated, cancelled, or not renewed, a dealer
franchise agreement that is substantially similar to the dealer franchise agreement that existed
with the previous manufacturer or distributor allowing the dealer to represent the line make under
the new plan of distribution.
