Short Statement: On August 7, 2009, an extra $2 billion was appropriated to the CARS Program, tripling the scope of the original request (based on $ 1 billion) to collect information about dealer and buyer transactions. Several adjustments to the dealer certifications on NHTSA Form 1072 have also been made to accommodate instances where the used vehicles turned into the CARS program are determined to be not eligible for the Program and to make terms used in the form consistent with the CARS Program Final Rule of July 29, 2009. New procedures would also allow dealers to make sales transactions of new vehicles that are not yet on their lots.
