(A) Request authorization from the manufacturer or distributor to replace the components, parts, and accessories damaged or otherwise correct the damage; or
(B) Reject the vehicle within the time frame specified in the dealer agreement;
(2) If the manufacturer or distributor refuses or fails to authorize repair of the damage within ten (10) days after receipt of notification or if the dealer rejects the recreational vehicle because of damage, ownership of the new recreational vehicle reverts to the manufacturer or distributor; and
(3) The dealer shall exercise due care in custody of the damaged recreational vehicle, but the dealer has no other obligations, financial or otherwise, with respect to that recreational vehicle.
(b)
(1) A dealer agreement shall include a time frame for inspection and rejection by the dealer.
(2) The time frame shall not be less than three (3) business days after the physical delivery of the recreational vehicle.

(1) A recreational vehicle that has at the time of delivery to the dealer an unreasonable number of miles on its odometer, as determined by the dealer, may be subject to rejection by the dealer and reversion of the vehicle to the manufacturer or distributor.
(2) However, if the number of miles on the odometer of the recreational vehicle is less than the sum of the distance in miles between the dealer and the factory of the manufacturer or point of distribution plus one hundred (100) miles, the dealer shall not consider the number of miles on the odometer unreasonable.
