The failure of any person to comply with this chapter before January 1, 2008, is not admissible in any court proceeding, administrative proceeding, arbitration, or alternative dispute resolution proceeding and may not otherwise be used to prove that the action of any person or the affected vehicle protection product was unlawful or otherwise improper.

Nothing in this section may be construed to require the application of the penalty provisions where this section is not applicable.
