The sale of a contract to provide for maintenance and/or repairs of a motor vehicle is exempt from sales tax when sold either with the vehicle or separate from the sale of the vehicle. These contracts are known in the industry as either a service contract, extended warranty or other similar names and are separate from the original new car warranty as provided by the manufacturer. Income received from the subsequent repair work performed by the dealer under the provisions of these contracts is taxed at the regular retail rate of tax.
