(d) A dealer or agent of a dealer must disclose to a buyer if the vehicle title has been branded “reconstructed”, “flood damaged”, “salvage” or was a “taxi”. The buyer(s) shall acknowledge the disclosure as described in this subsection by signing a disclosure statement which has been approved by the Division of Motor Vehicles and is provided by the dealership. A copy of the disclosure statement shall be provided to the Delaware Division of Motor Vehicles with the title application. In the absence of any disclosure statement, the contract may be rescinded at any time by the buyer and the dealer shall provide a full and complete refund to the buyer of all purchase moneys, including interest paid, plus all fees paid.
