(a)
In the absence of the regularly required supporting evidence of ownership and upon application for registration or transfer of a manufactured home, mobilehome, commercial coach, truck camper, or floating home, the department may accept an undertaking or bond which shall be conditioned to protect the department and all officers and employees thereof and any subsequent purchaser of the manufactured home, mobilehome, commercial coach, truck camper, or floating home, any person acquiring a lien or security interest thereon, or the successor in interest of that purchaser or that person against any loss or damage on account of any defect in or undisclosed claim upon the right, title, and interest of the applicant or other person in and to the manufactured home, mobilehome, commercial coach, truck camper, or floating home.
