Trade: vehicles; sale or operation of vehicles designed, developed, or manufactured by a foreign entity of concern; prohibit. Amends 1949 PA 300 (MCL 257.1 - 257.923) by adding sec. 697c.

House Bill 4400 proposes to prohibit vehicle dealers and distributors in Michigan from selling, offering for sale, or operating vehicles designed, developed, or manufactured by a "foreign entity of concern." The bill defines a "foreign entity of concern" to include specific countries such as China and Russia, as well as entities designated as foreign terrorist organizations or those involved in certain national security-related activities. Dealers or distributors found in violation could face a civil fine of up to $50,000 per violation, and the vehicles involved are subject to seizure and forfeiture. This legislation would amend the Michigan vehicle code to implement these restrictions.
