 IN SENATE

 February 5, 2026
 ___________

 Introduced by Sen. WEIK -- read twice and ordered printed, and when
 printed to be committed to the Committee on Consumer Protection

 AN ACT to amend the general business law, in relation to requiring that
 all new motor vehicles sold or leased at new motor vehicle dealerships
 contain a spare tire

 The People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and Assem-
 bly, do enact as follows:

 1 Section 1. The general business law is amended by adding a new section
 2 396-pp to read as follows:
 3 § 396-pp. Spare tire requirement. 1. All new motor vehicles sold or
 4 leased at new motor vehicle dealerships shall include a spare tire,
 5 whether or not equipped with standard radial or run-flat tires.
 6 2. For the purposes of this section, a run-flat tire is a pneumatic
 7 vehicle tire designed to resist the effects of deflation when punctured,
 8 allowing the vehicle to continue to be driven at reduced speeds for
 9 limited distances, but cannot replace a spare tire for safety and a
 10 longer than expected journey to a repair shop.
 11 § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.

 EXPLANATION--Matter in italics (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
 [ ] is old law to be omitted.
