Governor Sherrill Signs NJ CAR-Backed Service Facility Location Legislation

Jul 30, 2026

Today, Gov. Sherrill signed NJ CAR-backed legislation (A4050/S1423), recently passed by both Senate and Assembly unanimously, going into effect immediately.

A4050/S1423 provides a common sense-relief to franchised dealers by offering flexibility for service location placement.

The legislation aids dealers by:

  • Creating flexibility for the location of service facilities, which is desperately needed in our densely populated State
  • Providing two additional options for the location of service facilities (using a separate building on the same lot or using an offsite facility within the regional market area [RMA] of the dealership)

NJ CAR thanks Gov. Sherrill, Sen. Anthony Bucco (R-25), Sen. Joseph Lagana (D-38), Asm. Antwan McClellan (R-1), and Asm. William Spearman (D-5) for their bipartisan support leading to the passage of this critical legislation.
