What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
New Mexico licenses vehicle dealers through the Taxation and Revenue Department's Motor Vehicle Division, and §66-4-7 sets a reduced bond for a dealer of motorcycles only: $12,500, versus the $50,000 bond a full motor-vehicle dealer files. The bond is a buyer-protection guarantee.
It is payable to the state for the use and benefit of the purchaser and the purchaser's vendees, conditioned on payment for any loss caused by failure of the title, fraudulent misrepresentation, or breach of warranty as to freedom from liens on a motorcycle sold by the dealer. If a buyer is harmed, they can recover against the bond.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. The bond runs concurrently with the license (which expires March 31), so we track it and send renewal notices 60 and 30 days out to keep your filing continuous.
