The Florida Motor Vehicle Dealer bond is required by Florida’s Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles. The bond states that the bondholder shall fully comply with the conditions of any written contract. Contracts made in connection with the sale or exchange of a motor vehicle. Bonds shall be in favor of any person who suffers a loss or damages resulting from the bondholder’s failure to comply with the conditions of the bond.
The State of Florida requires motor vehicle dealers, mobile home dealers and recreational vehicle dealers be licensed with the state. The Motor Vehicle Dealer Bond is part of the licensing process. Find additional licensing information at FL Motor Vehicle Dealer Licensing Requirements.
