Why Dealers Choose Our Exterior Implied Warranty Guide
When your dealership offers any warranty—implied, limited, or manufacturer—you must display the FTC Implied Warranty Buyers Guide. Our exterior version combines permanent adhesive with a clean, professional no-lines design. Compliant with 16 CFR Part 455, built for outdoor durability, and ready to apply in seconds.
Implied Warranty Disclosure Compliance
16 CFR Part 455 requires the Implied Warranty version of the Buyers Guide whenever a dealer offers any warranty coverage, even if state law implies it. Our sticker displays the full warranty disclosure, coverage details, and conditions in a professional no-lines layout. Avoids regulatory exposure and provides buyers with transparent warranty terms at point of sale.
Clean No-Lines Professional Design
Unlike standard ruled or gridded forms, our no-lines design presents warranty information in a clean, modern format. Improves readability for lot customers and projects professionalism. ASA/NADA-compliant layout eliminates the institutional appearance of traditional printed forms, enhancing dealership credibility.
Permanent Adhesive for Outdoor Glass
PA (Permanent Adhesive) bonds permanently to exterior glass and withstands 60+ days of sun, rain, wind, and temperature shifts. 4-sided outdoor-grade adhesive prevents peeling, curling, or adhesive failure. Ideal for dealerships with open lots, high-inventory turnover, and vehicles stored in harsh climates.
Heavy White Weather-Resistant Stock
10-mil heavy white polyester survives UV fade, moisture penetration, and tearing. Maintains legibility and adhesion through 60+ days of outdoor lot exposure. Weather-resistant material ensures compliance documentation remains readable through auction cycles, transit, and harsh seasonal conditions.
5–7 Business Day Turnaround
From approved proof to delivery from Mansfield TX in 5–7 business days. Supports seasonal inventory planning and ensures fresh stock for dealership peaks. Expedited options available for rush compliance needs. Minimum order flexibility accommodates active dealers ordering 1,000+ units quarterly.
Wholesale Pricing and Volume Discounts
Per-unit pricing decreases with volume. Active dealers ordering 1,000+ units per quarter unlock tiered wholesale pricing. No hidden setup fees or per-order surcharges. Our all-in-one service—design, printing, permanent adhesive, QC, and shipment—reduces total cost of compliance versus in-house or third-party printing.
Exterior Implied Warranty Guide — Dealer FAQ
Q. When do we need the Implied Warranty version instead of AS IS?
Whenever your dealership offers any warranty—expressed, implied, or limited—you must use the Implied Warranty Buyers Guide, not AS IS. Even if state law automatically implies a warranty, you must disclose it. Some states (Maine, Maryland, Mississippi, West Virginia) prohibit AS IS sales entirely. When in doubt, use Implied Warranty to stay compliant.
Q. What does 'no-lines' mean?
'No-lines' refers to the form design. Instead of ruled or gridded backgrounds typical of traditional forms, our no-lines design uses clean spacing and typography to present warranty information. This creates a more professional, modern appearance while remaining fully FTC-compliant and ASA/NADA-standard.
Q. What's the difference between PA (Permanent) and light-adhesive versions?
PA = Permanent Adhesive for exterior glass on open lots. Light adhesive is for interior or covered lots. Permanent adhesive bonds permanently and resists 60+ days of sun, rain, and wind. Light-tack fails in 10–15 days on outdoor glass. If your lot is covered, ask about interior versions for cost savings.
Q. How does PA adhesive perform in extreme heat or cold?
Permanent adhesive cures fully in 72 hours at normal temperatures. Once cured, it withstands temperature extremes—from 100°F+ TX lots to sub-zero northern storage. Our heavy white polyester stock resists brittleness in cold and warping in heat. The 4-sided adhesive bond prevents edge-curl regardless of seasonal swings.
Q. Can we customize the warranty text or dealer info?
Yes, within FTC compliance limits. You can customize the warranty coverage details, terms, and conditions to match your dealership's specific offering. Dealer name, address, and phone print on the backer. Submit your warranty language for compliance review; our team confirms it meets 16 CFR Part 455 before production.
Q. What's the minimum order and turnaround?
Minimum order is 250 units. 5–7 business days from proof approval to shipment from Mansfield TX. Most active dealers order 1,000+ units per quarter. Expedited production (3–4 business days) available for rush orders; contact sales for surcharge details.
Q. Do we need to keep records of these stickers for compliance?
Yes. FTC record-keeping rules require dealers to retain documentation of warranty disclosures for each vehicle sold. Our stickers are digitally recorded at production; we maintain records and can provide audit-ready documentation if needed. Store your stickers safely and retain proof of application for regulatory audits.

How Dealers Use Exterior Implied Warranty Stickers
Warranty-Offering Dealerships
Dealers providing any form of warranty coverage—limited to specific systems, manufacturer-backed guarantees, or dealer-backed warranties—are legally required to disclose terms in the FTC Buyers Guide format. Our stickers display your warranty coverage, coverage period, and claim procedures in a professional no-lines design that enhances buyer confidence and transparency.
State-Mandated Implied Warranty Markets
Maine, Maryland, Mississippi, and West Virginia prohibit AS IS sales, automatically implying warranty coverage. Dealers in these states must use the Implied Warranty Buyers Guide on every vehicle. Our exterior PA stickers meet state-specific disclosure requirements while surviving harsh climate conditions and lot exposure.
High-Turnover Dealership Lots
Vehicles turning inventory every 10–20 days need durable, permanent-adhesive stickers that survive repeated washing, rain, and temperature swings. Permanent adhesive bonds instantly and never fails during the vehicle’s lot stay. Your lot team applies once per vehicle—no re-stickering, no adhesion failures, no compliance gaps.
Multi-Location Groups with Varied Warranty Programs
Centralize warranty disclosure management across multiple locations with customized stickers reflecting each dealership’s specific warranty terms. Our compliance team reviews each warranty language before production, ensuring consistency and regulatory alignment across your group’s lot operations.
Auction and Fleet Operations
Wholesale auction houses and fleet dealers offering limited warranties on lot vehicles benefit from permanent-adhesive stickers that survive auction cycles, transit, and rough handling. Heavy polyester stock and permanent adhesive mean warranty disclosures remain legible and secure through auction to retail sale.
Professional Lot Presentation
Our clean no-lines design projects professionalism compared to traditional ruled or gridded forms. Modern typography and spacing improve buyer readability and build confidence in warranty terms. Professional appearance correlates with dealership credibility and customer willingness to purchase with warranty.
FTC Implied Warranty Buyers Guide Under 16 CFR Part 455
The Federal Trade Commission’s Used Car Rule (16 CFR Part 455) distinguishes between two Buyers Guide forms: AS IS (for vehicles sold without warranty) and Implied Warranty (for vehicles sold with any warranty coverage). If your dealership offers a warranty—even limited to specific systems or expressed in limited terms—you must use the Implied Warranty version on the vehicle’s driver-side window.
The Implied Warranty Buyers Guide discloses coverage scope, duration, conditions, and any exclusions. It must state whether the vehicle is sold “as is with no warranty,” with a limited warranty, or with a full warranty. The form must display the dealer’s contact information and buyer remedies for warranty claims or disputes. AK Dealer Services ensures every sticker meets FTC formatting and content requirements before shipment.
Dealers in Maine, Maryland, Mississippi, and West Virginia face additional state-level constraints: used vehicle sales in these states cannot be AS IS. State law automatically implies warranty coverage, and dealers must disclose it on the Buyers Guide. Our Implied Warranty stickers accommodate these state requirements without additional customization.
Regulatory penalties for non-compliance or missing disclosures can reach $500+ per vehicle under FTC enforcement. Our stickers eliminate dealer-specific compliance risk by ensuring every vehicle receives the correct form type, legible disclosure, and audit-ready documentation.
Outdoor Durability and Permanent Adhesive Performance
Permanent adhesive (PA) is engineered for exterior glass applications where stickers must endure 60+ days of continuous sun, rain, humidity, temperature swings, and rough handling. Unlike removable or light-tack options, permanent adhesive creates an irreversible bond that prevents peeling, curling, or adhesion failure regardless of weather conditions.
Our heavy white polyester stock complements permanent adhesive performance. The 10-mil gauge resists UV fade, moisture penetration, and tearing. The material maintains structural integrity and legibility even after extended sun exposure or storage in high-humidity climates. Weather-resistant polyester doesn’t degrade like paper-based forms, ensuring warranty disclosure remains readable through auction cycles and seasonal transitions.
Permanent adhesive cures fully in 72 hours at normal temperature and humidity (60–75°F). Initial set is 24 hours; vehicles can be driven or washed after that period with minimal risk. During full cure, avoid high-pressure washing or rain on the windshield. Once cured, the sticker withstands hot-climate Texas lot storage (100°F+), coastal humidity, and northern winter freeze-thaw without degradation or edge-curling.
Our quality control includes adhesion testing on random samples from each production run. If adhesion performance fails our standards, we reprint the entire batch at no additional cost. This guarantee reflects our confidence in permanent adhesive durability and polyester stock performance across all climates.
Ordering Process
Step 1: Warranty Content and Proof
Submit your dealership’s warranty terms, coverage details, exclusions, and contact information. Our FTC compliance team reviews the warranty language to ensure 16 CFR Part 455 compliance. We create a proof showing layout, typography, and warranty disclosure formatting. You approve in writing (2–3 business days for proof review).
Step 2: Order Placement
Confirm minimum order quantity (250+ units), delivery address, and timeline. Our sales team provides a formal quote and SKU assignment. You authorize production and select payment terms (net 30 or prepaid options available).
Step 3: Production
Once proof is approved, production begins immediately. 5–7 business days includes warranty printing, cutting, permanent adhesive application, quality check, and packing. You receive email notifications at production start and shipment dispatch.
Step 4: Delivery and Application
Stickers arrive in bulk boxes (typically 250–500 units per box). Unpack and store at receiving. Application is simple: clean the glass with mild soap and water, dry completely, remove any old stickers or wax, peel the backing, and apply with firm pressure. Initial set is 24 hours; full cure is 72 hours.
Step 5: Reorder (Optional)
Once your warranty sticker design is approved and filed, reorders require no new proof. Simply place the order with your SKU and delivery details. Reorder turnaround is often 5–6 business days because design and compliance review are already complete.
