9 (2) The applicant for a certificate of title shall indicate

11 taxicab, police vehicle, or lease vehicle or if the motor
12 vehicle or mobile home is a rebuilt vehicle, as those terms are
13 defined in s. 319.14. If the applicant indicates on the
14 application for a certificate of title that the motor vehicle is
15 a rebuilt vehicle, the department shall visually inspect the
16 vehicle. If, upon inspection, the department has reasonable
17 cause to believe that the vehicle is unsafe or not equipped as
18 required by law, the department shall issue an affidavit-of
19 compliance and the applicant must then make necessary repairs
20 and present the vehicle to a law enforcement department for
21 confirmation that any defect has been corrected pursuant to s.
22 316.6105, before a certificate of title may be issued for such
23 vehicle. Upon issuance of a certificate of title for such
24 vehicle, the department shall stamp, in a conspicuous place on
25 the title, words stating the nature of the proposed use of the
26 vehicle or stating that the vehicle has been rebuilt. This
27 subsection applies to a mobile home, travel trailer, camping
28 trailer, truck camper, or fifth-wheel recreation trailer only
29 when the mobile home or vehicle is a rebuilt vehicle as defined
30 in s. 319.14.
