ATLANTA — The Surety Group is extending the Florida auto
dealer bond deadline for rooftops that haven't yet renewed.

Dealers now can complete contracts with the Surety Group by May
10.

For dealers who haven't renewed their bond, the Surety Group
has five Florida programs to choose from, including one for dealers with
impaired credit.

Officials indicated a new program feature this year is
financing, which is available with a down payment and four monthly installments
for qualified Florida dealers. The Surety Group is also waiving several
underwriting requirements, making it easier to qualify for a surety bond.

In addition, the Surety Group is taking applications by
phone at (800) 486-8211. Callers can speak directly to an underwriter who can
complete an application quickly.

In most cases, officials said a Florida dealer bond will be
approved the same day.

The rates and program requirements are online now at the
Surety Group website at suretygroup.com.
