Better information on used car parts, revaluation of certain social benefits, end of the winter break, sending energy checks …: here are some changes that will occur in the life of the French from April 1st.
Better information on used auto parts
Since January 1, 2017, automotive professionals must offer used parts instead of new parts for the maintenance or repair of a vehicle. An order that comes into effect from 1 April 2019 now sets the terms for informing customers about the prices and terms of sale of these coins from the circular economy.
More specifically, this decree provides for the consumer to be clearly informed of his right to opt for used parts. It also requires that the consumer has knowledge of the price and origin of coins (recycled end-of-life vehicle parts, or refurbished parts).
