A person may maintain an action against a dealer, crusher, or body shop on the corporate surety bond if:
the person suffers a loss or damage because of:
fraud;
fraudulent representation; or
a violation of Section 41-3-210; and
the loss or damage results from the action of:
a licensed dealer;
a licensed dealer's salesperson acting on behalf of the dealer or within the scope of the salesperson's employment;
a licensed crusher; or
a body shop.
Successive recovery against a surety on a bond is permitted, but the total aggregate liability on the bond to all persons making claims, regardless of the number of claimants or the number of years a bond remains in force, may not exceed the amount of the bond.
A cause of action may not be maintained against any surety under any bond required under this chapter except as provided in Section 41-3-205.
