Homepage Fill Out a Valid Florida Buyers Order Template
Table of Contents

In Florida, navigating the car buying process requires familiarity with key documents, among which the Florida Buyers Order form stands prominently. Produced by the Florida Automobile Dealers Association (FADA) and provided by The Reynolds and Reynolds Company, this pivotal document delineates the critical aspects and agreements involved in the purchase of a new or used vehicle. It holds numerous sections that capture vital information such as the customer's personal details, the vehicle's description including its year, make, model, and VIN, along with detailed financials covering the cash price of the vehicle, applied discounts, taxes, and fees. Significantly, it distinguishes between new, used, and demonstrator vehicles, offering a transparent account of the vehicle's condition and any warranties or disclaimers associated with it. The form serves not just as a contract but as a comprehensive record of the sale, emphasizing the buyer's acknowledgments concerning the vehicle's history, condition, and the terms of the sale. Moreover, it includes provisions regarding trade-ins and outlines the financing negotiation process, offering insights into potential financing through the dealer or a third party. It's also noteworthy for its explicit disclaimers and warranty details, guiding buyers through their rights and the vehicle’s guarantees or lack thereof, ensuring a clear understanding of the purchase’s implications. This document ultimately functions as both a protective measure and a guideline, ensuring all parties are on the same page, legally and financially, regarding the transaction.

Listed Questions and Answers

What is a Florida Buyer's Order form?

A Florida Buyer's Order form is a document used in vehicle transactions, outlining the terms of the sale between the dealership and the buyer. It details the vehicle being purchased, including its price, any accessories or additional services, applicable taxes, fees, and any trade-in information. This form serves as a binding agreement once signed by both parties.

Who needs to sign the Florida Buyer's Order form?

Both the customer (or co-customer, if applicable) and the dealership manager must sign the Florida Buyer's Order form. The customer's signature confirms their agreement to the terms and conditions of the sale, while the manager's signature makes the transaction official and binding.

Does the Buyer's Order form affect the manufacturer's warranty?

No, the manufacturer's warranty is not affected by the dealer's disclaimer of warranties. The form specifies that the only warranties applying to the vehicle are those offered by the manufacturer, ensuring any existing warranties remain in effect regardless of the dealership's own disclaimers.

Can I arrange financing through my own lender, or must I go through the dealer?

Customers have the freedom to secure financing through the dealer or a financing entity of their choosing. However, the retail installment sales contract will typically be assigned by the dealer to a financial institution, which will then hold the credit obligation.

What happens if the dealer cannot obtain credit approval for me?

If the dealer cannot obtain credit approval for the customer, or if they are unable to sell the retail installment sales contract to a financial institution on acceptable terms, they may terminate the order. This right of termination by the dealer cannot be waived unless it is done so in writing.

Is there an opportunity to inspect the vehicle before completing the purchase?

Yes, customers are encouraged to thoroughly inspect the vehicle, arrange for a third-party inspection, or engage in a test drive to ensure the vehicle meets their satisfaction. The dealership provides an opportunity for this inspection and test drive, and it is noted in the document whether the customer has either completed or declined this offering.

What disclosures are made for used vehicles?

For used vehicles, the dealer discloses that the vehicle has been previously driven and makes no representation regarding its history, condition, safety system, or suitability. Customers are acknowledged to understand they may retain a third-party to provide historical information about the vehicle and that it is sold as is, with all faults.

What are the implications of the "AS IS" clause for new, demonstrator, or executive vehicles?

The "AS IS" clause indicates that new, demonstrator, or executive vehicles are sold in their current condition without warranties, except those provided by the manufacturer. The dealership expressly disclaims all implied warranties, including merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose.

How are trade-ins handled in the Florida Buyer's Order form?

Trade-ins are accounted for in the vehicle transaction, with the form detailing the make, model, color, VIN, and mileage of the trade-in vehicle. It specifies whether the customer has any outstanding liens and provides a space for the agreed value of the trade-in to be deducted from the vehicle purchase price.

What is the arbitration and limitation acknowledgements section about?

This section outlines that both parties agree to submit any claims to binding arbitration, as detailed elsewhere in the document. It limits the types of damages a customer can recover from the dealer, excluding special and consequential damages, among others. This ensures disputes are resolved through arbitration rather than court proceedings.

Common mistakes

  1. Not thoroughly reviewing the vehicle status section, where it indicates if the car is new, used, a demo, or an executive vehicle. Understanding this helps in knowing what warranties or disclaimers apply.

  2. Overlooking the Purchase Information section. This mistake can lead to misconceptions about the warranties and the vehicle’s condition. Pay attention to whether the vehicle is sold as-is or with faults.

  3. Ignoring the Used Vehicle Disclosure section. Buyers might not realize the importance of acknowledging that the dealer hasn’t made any representations about the vehicle's history or condition.

  4. Skipping over the sections related to fees, like the Predelivery Service Fee or the Electronic Registration Filing Fee. These fees add to the total cost, and not accounting for them can result in unexpected expenses.

  5. Failing to verify the financial details, such as the Cash Price of the Vehicle, Accessories, Subtotal, and the Sales Tax %. It's crucial for understanding the full financial commitment.

  6. Overlooking the need for an independent inspection as suggested under the Used Vehicle Disclosure. This oversight can lead to unforeseen issues after the purchase.

  7. Not reading the Financing Negotiation/Approval section carefully. This can lead to surprises in financing terms or the realization that the dealer may assign the contract to a bank or finance company.

  8. Not accurately disclosing information about a trade-in vehicle’s condition, history, or liens, which is required under the TRADE-IN section. This can delay the process or change the trade-in value.

Each of these mistakes can lead to misunderstandings, financial discrepancies, or even legal issues after the purchase. It’s critical for buyers to take the time to read and understand every part of the Florida Buyers Order form to ensure a transparent and fair vehicle purchase.

Documents used along the form

When buying a vehicle in Florida, the Buyer's Order form is a critical document. However, this isn't the only piece of paperwork involved in the process. Several other forms and documents often accompany it, each serving a distinct purpose in the journey to vehicle ownership. Understanding these documents can help streamline the buying process, ensuring a smoother transition from shopper to owner.

  • Vehicle Title - This document serves as official proof of ownership. It lists vital information about the vehicle, such as its make, model, year, and VIN (Vehicle Identification Number).
  • Odometer Disclosure Statement - A form that officially documents the vehicle's mileage at the time of sale, protecting against odometer fraud.
  • Bill of Sale - This document summarizes the transaction details, including the price paid for the vehicle, thereby serving as a sales receipt.
  • Vehicle Registration Application - A form to apply for the vehicle’s registration in Florida, facilitating its legal operation on public roads.
  • Proof of Insurance - Proof that the buyer has obtained the necessary insurance for the vehicle according to Florida’s minimum coverage requirements.
  • Loan Agreement - If the vehicle is being financed, this agreement outlines the loan’s terms, including interest rate and repayment period.
  • Extended Warranty Plan - An optional agreement that extends the warranty beyond what the manufacturer offers, providing additional coverage for certain repairs.
  • Vehicle Inspection Report - For used vehicles, this report details the condition of the car, including any potential issues or past repairs.

Each of these documents plays a vital role in ensuring a transparent and lawful vehicle transaction. Together, they provide a comprehensive overview of the vehicle's history, condition, and the terms of its sale. Buyers should thoroughly review and understand each of these forms before completing their vehicle purchase to ensure a secure and satisfactory ownership experience.

Similar forms

The Florida Buyers Order form is similar to several other documents used in the purchase of vehicles, offering a comprehensive outline of the transaction details, terms, and conditions and serving as a pivotal record for both the buyer and the seller. Understanding its parallels with other forms can clarify its purpose and importance.

Vehicle Purchase Agreement: Like the Florida Buyers Order form, a Vehicle Purchase Agreement is a crucial document in the car buying process, detailing the agreement between the buyer and the seller. They both provide a record of sale specifics such as the car's make, model, year, VIN (Vehicle Identification Number), and the agreed-upon purchase price. Additionally, these documents outline any warranties or disclaimers and itemize added fees and services, ensuring that both parties have a clear understanding of the terms of sale including any financing arrangements. The similarity in function and content underlines their role in facilitating a transparent transaction process.

Bill of Sale: The Bill of Sale shares common features with the Florida Buyers Order form, primarily acting as a proof of purchase document. It records the transaction between two parties, listing the vehicle's critical information and the sale price much like the Buyers Order. However, the Bill of Sale is typically simpler, mainly serving to establish the transfer of ownership from seller to buyer. While it may not provide as detailed information on warranties or financing terms as the Buyers Order, it plays a vital role in the legal transfer process, often required for registration and title transfer purposes. Thus, both documents are essential, with the Buyers Order offering more comprehensive details of the sale agreement and the Bill of Sale serving as a legal proof of the ownership transfer.

Finance Agreement: Another document similar to the Florida Buyers Order form is the Finance Agreement, which is specifically used when the vehicle's purchase is being financed. While the Buyers Order might include financing terms and details as part of the transaction, a Finance Agreement delves deeper into the specifics of the loan, including interest rates, payment schedule, and terms of repayment. Both documents are integral in the vehicle purchase process with financing involved, with the Finance Agreement building on the financial details that may be initially outlined in the Buyers Order. Together, they ensure both the buyer and the lender have a clear, mutual understanding of the financial obligations tied to the vehicle's purchase.

Dos and Don'ts

When filling out the Florida Buyers Order form, certain practices can help ensure the process is smooth and effective. Here are things you should and shouldn't do.

Do:
  • Review the entire form: Before signing, read each section carefully to understand all terms and conditions.
  • Verify vehicle information: Make sure the stock number, VIN, make, model, year, and color match the vehicle you intend to purchase.
  • Confirm the price details: Check the cash price of the vehicle, including accessories, pre-sale information, and any added fees like the predelivery service fee, to ensure they are correctly listed.
  • Understand the warranty disclosures: Be clear on what warranties apply, especially the distinction between dealer disclaimers and manufacturer warranties for new, demo, and used vehicles.
  • Check the trade-in section: If applicable, ensure all details about a trade-in vehicle are accurate, including the make, model, year, VIN, color, and any financial obligations remaining.
Don't:
  • Overlook fees: Be aware of additional charges such as electronic registration filing fee, lead acid battery fee, and new tire fees, ensuring they are justified.
  • Sign without understanding: Don't rush into signing the form without fully understanding every aspect, including your rights regarding the vehicle condition, disclosures about its history, and the financial implications of the sale.

By following these guidelines, purchasers can navigate the complexities of buying a vehicle in Florida more effectively, ensuring rights are protected and expectations are clear.

Misconceptions

When it comes to purchasing a vehicle in Florida, the Florida Buyers Order form is a crucial document that outlines the terms and conditions of the sale. However, there are several misconceptions about this form:

  • It's only a formality without legal binding. Contrary to what some believe, the Florida Buyers Order is a legally binding document once signed by both the dealer and the buyer, detailing the agreement terms including price and any warranties or disclaimers.
  • The price listed is the final price. The listed cash price of the vehicle can be subject to additional fees and taxes not included in the initial price, such as electronic registration filing fees, sales tax, and possibly others as detailed in the order.
  • Warranties are automatic. The order clearly states that for new, demonstrator, or executive vehicles, any warranty comes directly from the manufacturer, not the dealer. Used vehicles are sold as-is, with all faults unless otherwise stated, making independent inspections crucial.
  • All vehicles have a warranty. Specifically, used vehicles may not come with a warranty, as indicated by the "AS IS - NO DEALER WARRANTY" disclaimer, leaving the buyer responsible for future repairs that are not covered by a manufacturer's warranty.
  • Dealers must disclose vehicle history for used cars. The form explains that while the dealer makes no representation regarding the vehicle's history, the buyer is encouraged to seek out third-party history reports and inspections for a used vehicle.
  • The buyer's order contains full financing details. Financing terms including APR and monthly payment amounts are often finalized in a separate retail installment sales contract, not in the initial buyer's order.
  • Trade-ins negate all debts on the vehicle. If a trade-in vehicle has outstanding liens greater than its value, the buyer remains responsible for settling those debts, not the dealer.
  • The form guarantees financing from the dealer. It's mentioned that financing can be obtained through the dealer or a third party, and the dealer may not guarantee financing approval.
  • There are no additional fees once you decide to buy. The buyer's order outlines various additional costs, including potential fees for battery and tire disposal, service contracts, and registration, which can add to the total sales price.
  • Signing the order means you can't back out. While signing the order is a commitment, certain conditions, such as financing approval, must be met. Plus, there might be provisions within the order itself or the subsequent retail installment contract allowing cancellation under specific circumstances.

Understanding these aspects of the Florida Buyers Order form can help buyers navigate the purchase process with more confidence and ensure they are fully informed before making a commitment.

Key takeaways

When dealing with the Florida Buyers Order form, a thorough understanding of every section is crucial for both buyers and sellers. Here are key takeaways to remember:

  • Ensure all personal information is filled out correctly, including full names, dates of birth, addresses, and contact details for both the customer and, if applicable, the co-customer.
  • The vehicle identification number (VIN), year, make, model, body style, color, and mileage are essential details that must be accurately listed to identify the vehicle being purchased.
  • Pay close attention to the "New / Demo and Executive Vehicle Disclosure" section if purchasing a new, demonstrator, or executive vehicle. It outlines the as-is condition and the disclaimer of warranties, except those provided by the manufacturer.
  • For used vehicles, the "Used Vehicle Disclosure" clarifies that the vehicle comes with no representations regarding its history or condition beyond what might be covered by any remaining manufacturer's warranty. It’s important for buyers to acknowledge this by signing.
  • The financial aspect of the purchase, including the cash price of the vehicle, any allowances for pre-owned vehicles, the subtotal, and details of any trade-in values, need careful review.
  • Be aware of additional fees such as the Pre-delivery Service Fee, Electronic Registration Filing Fee, Lead Acid Battery Fee, and the Florida New Tire Fee, as these can affect the overall cost.
  • Understand the sales tax, county tax, and any applicable fees related to Florida’s Lemon Law – Warranty Enforcement Act, as these will also contribute to the final purchasing price.
  • If trading in a vehicle, the specifics about the trade-in, including the year, make, model, color, VIN, mileage, and information about any liens, must be provided.
  • The financing section offers the buyer the option to secure financing through the dealer or independently. It also outlines the conditions that must be met for the sale to proceed, emphasizing the dealer's right to terminate the order under certain circumstances.
  • The arbitration and limitation acknowledgments section limits the types of damages that can be recovered in disputes and specifies the use of binding arbitration to resolve issues.
  • Finally, it's essential not to sign the document until all terms and conditions on both the front and reverse sides of the order have been read, understood, and agreed upon. This signature signifies the buyer’s acceptance of all provisions, including disclaimers and acknowledgments.

Understanding these key points and carefully reviewing the Florida Buyers Order form can help ensure a transparent and satisfactory vehicle purchase process in Florida.
