Dealer Recovery Trust Fund Board

Illinois law, HB 880 requires automobile and motorcycle dealers to pay $500 annually into a Dealer Recovery Trust Fund (“Fund”) to be used to pay off vehicles traded-in to dealerships that close. The Fund could also be used when a vehicle is purchased from a dealership that closes and sells a vehicle with an undisclosed lien.

The law established a board, which is anticipated to meet at least quarterly each year. A notice of the date and place of the meetings, as well as the agenda, will be available at the Office of the Illinois Attorney General.
