Peter Welch actually said...

"With respect to the rental car bill, we are supportive of the premise behind the bill that vehicles that are unsafe to drive should not be put into the hands of the public."

"If the vehicle has been deemed to be unsafe to drive either by the OEMs or by NHTSA, we would not put one of those cars in the hands of the consumer."

"In fact, the backorders on those, depending on the make, the model, what factory they are coming from, availability, could well be over a year."

"Our issues with that bill is the definition of when is it unsafe to drive a vehicle and differentiating between recalls that would not render a vehicle unsafe to drive."
