(1) Replace the recreational vehicle with a comparable new recreational vehicle.

(2) At the manufacturer's option, accept return of the recreational vehicle and refund the full purchase price, and any amounts paid by the consumer at the point of sale, and all collateral costs, less a reasonable allowance for use by the consumer, or any holder of a perfected security interest in the recreational vehicle, as their interest may appear, if the transaction was a sale. Refunds shall be made to the consumer and lienholder of record, if any, as their interests may appear.

B. A reasonable allowance for use by the consumer shall be determined by the commission and shall be that amount directly attributable to use by the consumer prior to his first written notice of a nonconformity to the manufacturer, agent, or dealer, and during any subsequent period when the vehicle was not out of service by reason of repair.

C. The consumer shall have no more than one hundred eighty days after the end of the express warranty term to file a complaint with the manufacturer and the commission to force compliance with the provisions of this Section.
