Guide
Florida's notice (§681.104) is sent after the presumption thresholds are met, by registered mail or express service, to the manufacturer. It tells the manufacturer the vehicle is a lemon under the statute and demands action.
The clock it opens: the manufacturer has 10 days to designate a reasonably accessible repair facility, and then 10 days after you deliver the vehicle to complete a final repair attempt. For recreational vehicles the total period is 45 days. If the manufacturer fails to respond or the final attempt fails, its right to another attempt is waived — and the file is ready for the Florida Motor Vehicle Arbitration Board.
Keep the mailing receipt with your repair log. In Florida files, the registered-mail receipt is often the single most important piece of paper after the repair orders themselves.
The repair-log tracker, your state's notice letter, the buyback worksheet, and your deadline calendar.
