A 1399 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Requires manufacturer of recalled medical devices to provide replacement device or pay for replacement device under certain circumstances.

This bill requires medical device manufacturers to provide a replacement device at no cost to consumers when a recall is issued that demands the consumer stop using or return the device. If the manufacturer cannot supply a replacement, they must pay for a replacement device from another manufacturer. Manufacturers must fulfill this requirement within 30 days of the recall being issued. Violations are considered unlawful under New Jersey's Consumer Fraud Act, potentially resulting in fines up to $20,000 for repeat offenses.
