HSB 684 Iowa House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

A bill for an act providing for the repair of a diesel exhaust fluid system that is part of farm equipment, and providing penalties.

This bill requires farm equipment manufacturers to provide repair information and replacement parts to equipment owners (farmers, lessees, or licensees) on the same terms they offer to their authorized repair shops. It mandates that manufacturers make diagnostic data, software updates, and necessary parts available at no extra charge compared to what they charge their own repair providers. The law ensures owners can access repair tools and technical updates without being forced to pay more than authorized providers, while protecting manufacturers' trade secrets. It directly affects farmers who operate diesel-powered farm equipment with selective catalytic reduction systems.
