National Lenders General Agency Expands Services –  Rolls Out Full Suite of F&I Products for Independent Dealers

Houston, TX – July 8, 2025 — National Lenders General Agency, LLC, a leading provider of Collateral Protection Insurance (CPI) for independent automotive dealers, proudly announces the launch of a full suite of retail F&I products designed to enhance profitability, customer satisfaction, and dealership performance.

Building on its success with CPI and Limited Warranty programs, National Lenders now offers a full range of products including Vehicle Service Contracts, GAP programs, and more. These offerings mark a strategic evolution—positioning National Lenders as a true one-stop F&I partner for the independent retail space.

“Our expansion into the retail F&I product segment is a direct response to dealer demand,” said Ken Terkel, President of National Lenders. “Dealers are looking for flexible, high-quality products that can be easily integrated into their operations. With this new lineup, we’re giving them the tools to drive revenue, protect customers, and stay competitive in a rapidly changing market.”

Each product is designed to be modular, dealer-friendly, and profit-driven, allowing retailers to bundle offerings or tailor them to individual customer needs. National Lenders provides white-glove support, seamless onboarding, and dedicated account management to ensure dealers can implement these products without operational disruption.

“This is more than just a product expansion—it’s a commitment to empowering our dealer partners,” said Eric S. Hurst, Chief Operating Officer and Executive Vice President. “Retail dealers today are expected to deliver exceptional service, protect their buyers, and generate margin from every transaction. Our expanded suite is designed to help them do exactly that.”

With this move, National Lenders expands its reach across the independent dealer channel, offering high-impact, customer-focused F&I products that strengthen dealer relationships and elevate the ownership experience.


About National Lenders General Agency LLC: National Lenders General Agency LLC is the premier administrator for Empire Indemnity of Texas, Inc. and Empire Indemnity Insurance Company Risk Retention Group, Inc. We specialize in Collateral Protection Insurance (CPI) and F&I products and services, bringing cost-effective, compliant, streamlined solutions to independent and franchise auto dealers nationwide.

EMAIL: kwilliams@nationallenders.com

PHONE:812-327-6156

Eric Hurst, COO and EVP, emphasized the significance of this achievement: “Too many operators offer one-size-fits-all solutions that leave clients vulnerable. In contrast, we’ve embraced the rigorous demands of licensing and certification to ensure our clients get truly expert guidance. This new designation is more than a credential—it’s a clear message to dealers that they have a partner who takes their risks as seriously as they do. We’re not here to blend in; we’re here to lead.”

TENNESSEE DEPT OF REVENUE for RECON

Attention: TN  Rebuilders

The Tennessee Department of Revenue is  making a change to the rebuilt vehicles application process to ensure  compliance with repair requirements and to better serve all rebuilders.  Beginning January 15, 2024, the Department will require a picture  of the vehicle after repairs have been made. If pictures of both damaged  areas and final repairs are not included with your application, approval will  be delayed or denied until the information is received. The updated  Application for Motor Vehicle Identification Certification for Rebuilt  Vehicles is attached and available at:

https://www.tn.gov/content/dam/tn/revenue/documents/forms/titlereg/f1315401Fill-in.pdf

As a reminder, Tennessee Code Annotated § 55-3-206 requires vehicle repairs to be  complete and in accordance with manufacturer’s safety specifications before  submitting the application. By signing the Certification Section, you are affirming  all repairs were made. If it is determined during  the inspection that the vehicle repairs have not been made, the vehicle is not  available for inspection, or it was sold prior to the inspection,  you could be subject to criminal and civil sanctions. Furthermore, submission of a false application could  result in rejection of the application. 

If you have any questions  about this change, please contact Special Agent Manager Keith Jeffers at keith.jeffers@tn.gov.

NATIONAL ISSUE: RIGHT TO  REPAIR:

Consumers and their designees should have access to their motor vehicle data, critical repair information, tools to repair their vehicles, and not be limited in their choices for the maintenance, service, and repair of their vehicles. Congress should pass H.R. 906, the “Right to Equitable and Professional Auto Industry Repair Act” (REPAIR Act), as it promotes consumer choice, consumer control and safety. Additionally, Congress should pass H.R. 1707, the “Save Money on Auto Repair Transportation Act (SMART Act), as it would permit alternative parts suppliers to sell aftermarket collision repair parts after a certain time period expires, reducing the consumer’s costs and expenses. 

  
BACKGROUND

The REPAIR Act was re-introduced in February 2023. The REPAIR Act is a bi-partisan proposed bill to require original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) to provide a vehicle’s owner with certain data generated by the operation of the vehicle related to diagnostics, repair, calibration and service through a standardized access platform. The bill would also prevent OEMs from mandating specific brands of parts, tools or equipment be used on a vehicle (absent a recall). The proposed legislation allows a vehicle’s owner to designate access of vehicle data to any repair shop of their choice or to personally retain the data. The REPAIR Act will prioritize vehicle and data security by requiring the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, in consultation with the Federal Trade Commission, to establish rules for access to data through the standardized access platform and establish guidance to ensure the security of vehicle-generated data and vehicles within 1 year of its enactment. 

*WE LOBBIED AGAINST The CARS RULE

 SMART ACT is a bi-partisan proposed bill that will narrowly amend patent law to reduce from 15 to 2.5 years the time that automakers can enforce design patents against alternative parts manufacturers on vehicle parts like bumpers, hoods, quarter panels, and side mirrors. The SMART Act will allow alternative parts suppliers to sell aftermarket collision repair parts once 2.5 years have elapsed from the date of the patent. The SMART Act would not alter the 14-year period that OEMs can enforce design patents against other manufacturers; it would impact only aftermarket repair parts.

FTC Safeguards Rule: What your Business Needs to KNOW

 

The Safeguards Rule took effect in 2003, but after public comment, the FTC amended it in 2021 to make sure the Rule keeps pace with current technology. While preserving the flexibility of the original Safeguards Rule, the revised Rule provides more concrete guidance for businesses. It reflects core data security principles that all covered companies need to implement.

This publication serves as the small entity compliance guide under the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act. Your best source of information is the text of the Safeguards Rule itself.

In reviewing your obligations under the Safeguards Rule, consider these key compliance questions.
