    OFFICE OF THE ATTORNEY GENERAL FLORIDA NEW MOTOR VEHICLE ARBITRATION BOARD QUARTERLY CASE SUMMARIES January 2001 - March 2001 (1st Quarter) JURISDICTION: Consumer §681.102(4), F.S. B & P Duplicating Service, Inc. v. General Motors Corporation, Chevrolet Motor Division, 2001-0014/ORL (Fla. NMVAB February 22, 2001). The Manufacturer moved to dismiss the Consumer’s case on the grounds that B & P Duplicating Service, Inc., was not a “consumer” eligible for relief under the Lemon Law, because the legislature did not intend for the protection of the Lemon Law to extend to vehicles purchased solely for business purposes and utilized by multiple drivers. The vehicle was purchased to be added to the Consumer’s fleet of 15 vehicles which were driven by various technicians and salesmen in the course of their employment with the Consumer. Approximately seven to 10 employees had access to and drove the vehicle in the course of their employment. The Board relied on the statutory definition of “consumer” and looked to the intent provision of the Lemon Law which, in pertinent part, recognizes that a motor vehicle is a major consumer purchase. The Board concluded that the vehicle was purchased as a commercial fleet vehicle and not as a “major consumer purchase” and, therefore, B & P Duplicating Service, Inc. was not a “consumer” as defined in the Lemon Law. The case was dismissed. Motor Vehicle §681.102(14), F.S. (1995); §681.102(15), F.S. (1997) Crown Cleaning Supplies and Equipment, Inc. v. Ford Motor Company, 2000-1105/ORL (Fla. NMVAB January 26, 2001). The Consumer’s Request for Arbitration was initially rejected by the Division of Consumer Services because the Consumer indicated that the vehicle was a truck with a gross vehicle weight over 10,000 pounds.

Clifton Building Company/Stephan Burgyan - 17853 Lake Road - Built in 1900 The house was built in 1900 by the "Clifton Building Company;" Charles W. Root was the first owner. Originally the house was smaller than today. Mr. Root made improvements con­ sisting of a large kidney-shaped front porch, a larger front entry and a room at the rear of the house which is now the library. When the term hand made is used in the inter­ view it means that Mr. Burgyan has constructed the items mentioned. Mr. Burgyan has restored the woodwork on the lower floor to its natural oak. It is easy to state this fact but the process was sand blasting in order to remove many layers of paint and the stubborn stain. The motif of the house is gothic. The gothic arch is seen in door panels and the dining room wainscoting. Wherever the gothiC arch fits in appropriately Mr. Burgyan has made paneling, radiator enclosures and book cases in this motif. The front entry has high wainscoting in the restored oak. A hand made wrought iron coat pole has been installed to take the place of the original coat hook method.

  • Illustrated Guide to Crossovers, Suvs, Vans, Shuttles, and Small Buses for Vanpools
    Illustrated Guide to Crossovers, SUVs, Vans, Shuttles, and Small Buses for Vanpools Introduction: Under the “Commuter Highway Vehicle” laws (26 U.S.C. Sec. 132 (f)) vanpools are defined as any highway vehicle that has seating capacity of at least seven adults including the driver. Vehicle appearance does not matter, nor does the name “van” have to describe the vehicle as long as seven adults can be seated. Vanpools can utilize minivans, crossovers, SUVs, traditional vans, and even body‐ on‐chassis minibuses. To avoid commercial drivers license (CDL) requirements, vanpool vehicles must have seating for no more than 15 (including the driver) passengers, and must weigh less than 26,000 lbs. (To provide perspective, a typical 26,000 lb. bus can seat approximately 45‐passengers and would normally be built on a Freightliner or International medium‐duty commercial truck chassis). Many vanpool agencies utilize multiple vehicle types to accommodate special needs: smaller vehicles when they must park inside garages; larger vehicles when an ADA passenger is a pool participant; larger vehicles when a pool outgrows its original vehicle; and smaller vehicles when a larger pool loses some passengers. There are multiple variables to consider when choosing the most appropriate vanpool vehicle for any particular situation: Driver comfort. Drivers are critical volunteers that help sustain the vanpool. Drivers should enjoy driving the vehicle. Drivers should feel safe and confident while driving the vehicle. If drivers are required to store the vehicle at their homes they should not be embarrassed by the vehicle’s appearance. If vanpool drivers are allowed a certain amount of personal miles in compensation for volunteering, the vehicle should be desirable to drive and to be seen in.

  • Office of the Attorney General Florida New Motor Vehicle Arbitration Board
    OFFICE OF THE ATTORNEY GENERAL FLORIDA NEW MOTOR VEHICLE ARBITRATION BOARD QUARTERLY CASE SUMMARIES January 2008 - March 2008 (1st Quarter) JURISDICTION: Consumer §681.102(4), F.S. Rayser v. Ford Motor Company, 2007-0538/JAX (Fla. NMVAB March 18, 2008) The Consumers purchased a new 2006 Ford F-350 pickup truck in Florida. Prior to the arbitration hearing, the vehicle was repossessed by the lienholder. At the hearing, the Consumers acknowledged that in fact the vehicle was repossessed and that they did not have current possession of the vehicle. The statute defines a “Consumer” as „The purchaser, other than for purposes of resale, or the lessee, of a motor vehicle primarily used for personal, family, or household purposes; any person to whom such vehicle is transferred for the same purposes during the duration of the Lemon Law rights period; and any other person entitled by the terms of the warranty to enforce the obligations of the warranty.” Since the Consumers no longer possessed the motor vehicle which was the subject of the claim, they were not, for purposes of this proceeding, a “consumer” as defined by the statute. Therefore, the case was dismissed. Motor Vehicle §681.102(15), F.S. Clark and Kerrigan v. Volkswagen/Audi of America, Inc., 2007-0777/TPA (Fla. NMVAB March 3, 2008) The Consumers purchased a 2005 Volkswagen Beetle in Florida on September 9, 2005. The Manufacturer contended that the case should be dismissed because the Consumers purchased a used vehicle, not a demonstrator. The Manufacturer introduced into evidence the former owner‟s Retail Purchase Agreement and a copy of the CarFax History Report on the vehicle.

  • 'N 'Goes' Forward with New Innovations in the 2005 Chrysler Town & Country Minivan
    Contact: Amy Grundman Chrysler Group ‘Stows’ Away the Competition ’N ‘Goes’ Forward with New Innovations in the 2005 Chrysler Town & Country Minivan August 31, 2004, Auburn Hills, Mich. - OVERVIEW More than 20 years ago, Chrysler Corporation changed the way people think about transportation with the invention of the minivan. More than 10 million sales later, the Chrysler Town & Country is the premium nameplate in the minivan market segment. “Stow ’n Go™ represents yet another leapfrog for the Chrysler Group in the minivan market segment,” said Larry Lyons, Vice President—Front-Wheel Drive Product Team. “Stow ’n Go is one of the more than 15 new features and safety enhancements that offer unmatched versatility and storage on our new 2005 minivans.” Designed and engineered from the inside out, Chrysler has raised the bar for innovations with the 2005 Chrysler Town & Country minivan. The minivan-first Stow ’n Go seating and storage system not only provides fold-in-the-floor second- and third-row seats, but gives an additional 12 cu. ft. of storage area when the seats are in their upright position. The seating configuration goes from seven seats to two in less than 30 seconds, with an effortless, one-hand operation. “With inspired engineering like the new Stow ’n Go seating and storage system, Chrysler Town & Country continues to be the premier, luxury minivan in the market today,” said Jeff Bell, Vice President—Chrysler. “We will continue to be the minivan leader by listening to our customers, not resting on our laurels. With luxurious interior features such as leather heated seats, three-zone temperature controls and premium entertainment amenities, the original premium minivan, Chrysler Town & Country, sets the standard for the rest of the market.” Chrysler Group invested $400 million to create an all-new platform and bring its new 2005 Chrysler and Dodge minivans to market in just 18 months.

Biberstein Submitted to the System Design and Management Program in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Science in Engineering and Management ABSTRACT The focus of this thesis is to determine if the program teams of original- equipment-manufacturer A (OEM-A), a global automobile manufacturer, are isolated, to some degree, from their targeted customers. Qualitative research (interviews) was conducted to determine the degree of customer interaction and the needs of program teams for customer input during the product development process. In addition to defining the current state of market research at OEM-A, informal market research conducted by program engineers (independent of the market research activity) is summarized based on a ten-month sampling.
