 6 motor vehicle in a manner that prevents any damage to the motor vehicle.
 7 2. This section shall not apply to:
 8 (a) new motor vehicles sold with a run-flat tire.
 9 (b) new motor vehicles that do not have a space to secure a space
 10 saver tire.
 11 (c) new motor vehicles sold with a full-sized spare tire.
 12 3. Manufacturers shall be responsible for ensuring that all new motor
 13 vehicles include a space saver tire compatible with the motor vehicle
 14 sold as required by subdivision one of this section.
 15 4. For the purposes of this section:

 A. 9307--C 2

 1 (a) "space saver tire" is a temporary smaller sized spare tire that
 2 should only be used temporarily, allowing the vehicle to continue to be
 3 driven at reduced speeds for limited distances.
 4 (b) "run-flat tire" is a pneumatic vehicle tire designed to resist the
 5 effects of deflation when punctured, allowing the vehicle to continue to
 6 be driven at reduced speeds for limited distances, but cannot replace a
 7 spare tire for safety and a longer than expected journey to a repair
 8 shop.
 9 (c) "motor vehicle" shall mean every vehicle operated or driven upon a
 10 public highway which is propelled by any power other than muscular power
