Dealer Advocacy

The Indiana Independent Automobile Dealers Association (IIADA) serves as the voice of independent automobile dealers across Indiana.

The independent auto industry is shaped by laws, regulations, and policies that impact how dealerships operate every day. IIADA works to ensure that the interests of independent dealers are represented in these conversations and that the industry has a strong, unified voice at the state level.

Through ongoing relationships with policymakers, regulators, and state agencies, IIADA advocates for fair laws, responsible regulations, and a balanced marketplace that allows independent dealers to operate successfully while protecting consumers.

IIADA works closely with key state partners including the Indiana Secretary of State, the Indiana Attorney General’s Office, the Indiana Bureau of Motor Vehicles, and the Indiana General Assembly to help ensure that dealer regulations are clear, practical, and supportive of responsible businesses.

By representing the independent dealer community in legislative and regulatory discussions, IIADA helps protect the ability of independent dealers to serve their customers, grow their businesses, and contribute to Indiana’s economy.

Empowering Independent Auto Dealers

As the voice of Indiana’s independent auto dealers in legislative and regulatory matters, IIADA advocates on laws and regulations that impact job creation and strong dealerships.
