[EX Q]: SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

    This Act may be referred to as the ``Used Car Consumer Notification 
and Reporting Act''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

    The Congress makes the following findings:
            (1) Many States do not have specific requirements regarding 
        the disclosure of a motor vehicle's history and even fewer 
        States require that the motor vehicle's title be stamped or 
        branded to indicate that it is a salvage vehicle or a 
        manufacturer buyback vehicle.
            (2) The State disclosure requirements that do exist 
        regarding a motor vehicle's history are inconsistent with one 
        another in scope and language, require the use of various and 
        different forms and administrative procedures, and are 
        duplicative, burdensome on interstate commerce, and confusing 
        to consumers.
            (3) The fact that a motor vehicle is a salvage vehicle or a 
        manufacturer buyback vehicle is material to any subsequent sale 
        of the vehicle.
            (4) Many salvage vehicles and manufacturer buyback vehicles 
        are subsequently resold at auction or by used motor vehicle 
        dealers and thus recycled back into the marketplace, back onto 
        the streets, and back into repair shops.
            (5) Rebuilt motor vehicles may not have passed a rigorous 
        safety inspection and may pose a safety risk, according to the 
        National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, and consumers 
        who unknowingly buy these motor vehicles face an increased risk 
        of death or serious injury in motor vehicle accidents.
