‘Sec. 1. 24-A MRSA §2164-C, sub-§2, as enacted by PL 2005, c. 101, §1, is amended to read:
A domestic or foreign insurer or its agent or employee may not contract with any person to act as its agent for purposes of managing, handling or arranging repair or replacement of motor vehicles for collision damage when that person is compensated by payment of a portion of the difference between the list price of the product or services provided and the amount paid to the person providing repair and replacement service.
A domestic or foreign insurer or its agent or employee may not recommend the use of a particular motor vehicle repair service or network of repair services without informing the claimant that the claimant is under no obligation to use the recommended repair service or network of repair services. If a domestic or foreign insurer or its agent or employee recommends the use of a particular motor vehicle repair service or network of repair services, the following advisory must be made to the insured or claimant at the time a claim for motor vehicle collision damage is reported:
"You have the legal right to choose a motor vehicle collision repair shop to fix your vehicle. Your policy will cover the reasonable costs of repairing your vehicle to its pre-accident condition no matter where you have repairs made."’
