     4  section, the following words shall have the following meanings:

     8  two of subdivision a of section one hundred ninety-eight-b of this arti-
     9  cle.
    10    2.  Prior  to  offering a contract for sale of a used motor vehicle at

    12  to  determine  whether  a  manufacturer  or the national highway traffic
    13  safety administration has issued any  recall  applicable  to  such  used
    14  motor  vehicle.  Upon  determining  that a manufacturer or such adminis-
    15  tration has issued any recall applicable to such used motor  vehicle,  a
    16  dealer,  or  his  or  her  agent,  must make or cause repairs to be made
    17  pursuant to the manufacturer's or such administration's recall such that
    18  the recall is satisfied.

    21  1970, is amended to read as follows:
    22    § 199. Penalties. Any  person,  firm,  or  corporation  violating  the
    23  provisions  of  section  one hundred [ninety-six] ninety-eight-d of this
    24  article shall be liable in an action brought on behalf of the people  of
