Disclosure of the condition of the recreational vehicle

Disclosure of the condition of the recreational vehicle.

(1) Model year designation. Changing the model year of a recreational vehicle is an unfair practice and prohibited. If no model year is designated, the year of manufacture applies.

(2) New recreational vehicle disclosure. The licensee shall, on the face of a new recreational vehicle purchase contract, disclose all dealer installed options or accessories and whether or not the options or accessories are warranted.

(3) Used recreational vehicle general condition disclosure.

(a) Licensees shall inform prospective retail purchasers of used recreational vehicles in writing before execution of the purchase contract in the manner and on the form prescribed by the department, of all significant structural or mechanical defects and damage. Disclosure of information shall include that which the licensee discovers as a result of a careful visual inspection, which shall consist of but is not limited to a walk-around and interior inspection, under vehicle inspection, roof inspection and an inspection of the appliances. Licensees shall not be required to dismantle any part of the recreational vehicle during the inspection process.

(b) Unless otherwise agreed to in the purchase contract, the inspection disclosures shall neither create any warranties, expressed or implied, or affect warranty coverage provided for in the purchase contract.
