What is a Motor Vehicle Dealer Bond?

A motor vehicle dealer bond, also known as an auto dealer bond,  shows proof that the auto dealer is trustworthy in their prices, services, and treatment of the customer and the vehicle itself. A motor vehicle dealer bond can help with the business’ reputation  overall. This bond, as any other bond, is meant to protect both parties. The customer can make a claim on the bond if they feel as though the dealer has acted in an unprofessional manner or the work provided on the vehicle put the customer in danger. The surety will compensate the customer based on the motor vehicle bond the owner has obtained. It is then the responsibility of the auto dealer to pay back the surety for the claim made on the bond. A motor vehicle dealer bond helps the owner of the dealership because it shows proof of responsibility, liability, and trustworthiness to the customers.
