Oklahoma capped auto-body total-loss storage and administrative charges

Oklahoma SB 641 created the Motor Vehicle Consumer Protection Act effective November 1, 2025. For total-loss vehicles it limits administrative charges, sets maximum daily storage rates, allows higher storage rates in specified circumstances, requires written invoices and requires auto body shops to respond to insurer invoice requests concerning pickup, release or delivery within eight business hours. The statute provides for future rate adjustments by Oklahoma Insurance Department bulletin.

What to check

Oklahoma body shops handling total-loss vehicles should align storage and administrative billing with §§36-1273 and 36-1274, retain written supplemental communications needed for higher storage rates, and meet the eight-business-hour invoice-response requirement.
