Auto warranty ruled not insurance under Kansas law
Kansas Attorney General Curt Schneider ruled that motor vehicle warranties offered by auto dealers are not insurance contracts under the state code. The opinion, requested by Sen. Norman E. Gaar, notes that separate charges for the contract make it a merchandising device rather than an insurance agreement, with risks limited to vehicle operation. Additional opinion held that out-of-state attorneys must associate with local counsel to appear in Division of Employment Security proceedings.
