Procedimientos para vehículos recreativos dañados antes de la entrega

Explicación Simple

Si un vehículo recreativo nuevo se daña antes de llegar al concesionario, el vendedor debe avisar al fabricante. Luego, el fabricante debe decidir si lo repara o si el vendedor puede devolverlo.

Es como cuando compras un teléfono nuevo y al abrir la caja, descubres que está roto. Tienes que avisar a la tienda para que te digan si lo reparan o si puedes devolverlo.

Ejemplo Práctico

Imagina que Juan compra un tráiler nuevo. Cuando llega al concesionario, se da cuenta de que tiene un rasguño grande. Juan le avisa al concesionario, quien a su vez contacta al fabricante para ver si pueden arreglarlo o si deben devolverlo.

SECTION 56-14-140. Procedures for new recreational vehicles damaged prior to transit to dealer. (A) Whenever a new recreational vehicle is damaged prior to transit to the dealer or is damaged in transit to the dealer and the carrier or means of transportation has been selected by the manufacturer, the dealer shall notify the manufacturer of the damage within the timeframe specified in the manufacturer/dealer agreement and: (1) request from the manufacturer authorization to replace the components, parts, and accessories damaged or otherwise correct the damage; or (2) reject the vehicle within the timeframe set forth in subsection (D). (B) If the manufacturer refuses or fails to authorize repair of such damage within ten days after receipt of notification, or if the dealer rejects the recreational vehicle because of damage, ownership of the new recreational vehicle shall revert to the manufacturer. (C) The dealer shall exercise due care in custody of the damaged recreational vehicle, but the dealer shall have no other obligations, financial or otherwise, with respect to that recreational vehicle. (D) The time frame for inspection and rejection by the dealer must be part of the manufacturer/dealer agreement and may not be less than two business days after the physical delivery of the recreational vehicle. (E) Any recreational vehicle that has, at the time of delivery to the dealer, an unreasonable amount of miles on its odometer, as determined by the dealer, may be subject to rejection by the dealer and reversion of the vehicle to the manufacturer. In no instance shall a dealer deem an amount less than the distance between the dealer and the manufacturer's factory or point of distribution, plus one hundred miles, as unreasonable.
