- Florida law meant to protect car buyers hasn’t changed in 56 years. Is it still enough?
Florida's 56-year-old consumer protection law requires car dealers to carry a $25,000 surety bond, but rising car costs and recent cases like Pamela Wright's title dispute suggest the law may no longer provide adequate protection. A lawsuit involving 11 consumers competing for the same bond highlights concerns that the fixed bond amount fails to address modern financial losses.
