Text

(a)
Except as otherwise provided in Section 18089, the department, upon the original registration of a manufactured home, mobilehome, commercial coach, truck camper, or floating home, shall establish a permanent title record for the manufactured home, mobilehome, commercial coach, truck camper, or floating home and shall issue a certificate of title to the legal owner and a registration card to the registered owner.
(b)
The department shall designate on the permanent title record as the legal owner the holder, if any, of the perfected security interest in the manufactured home, mobilehome, commercial coach, truck camper, or floating home. If there is more than one perfected security interest, the holder of the security interest designated in the application for the original registration as the legal owner shall be the legal owner.
(c)
The department shall designate on the permanent title record as junior lienholders those holders, if any, of perfected security interests in the manufactured home, mobilehome, commercial coach, truck camper, or floating home other than the legal owner. If there is more than one junior lienholder, they shall be listed on the permanent title record in the same order as is designated in the application for the original registration. A copy of the registration card shall be sent to each junior lienholder and the creditor identified on the manufacturer’s certificate of origin.
(d)
If an application for registration specifies more than one secured creditor and the department is unable to determine from the application which creditor is to be the legal owner, or the seniority order in which junior lienholders are to be designated, the department shall so notify the applicant for registration and all secured creditors and shall withhold registration or transfer of registration until the department receives the designation.
(e)
The certificate of title and the registration card issued pursuant to this section shall show the name and address of all registered owners, the legal owner, if any, and all junior lienholders, if any, with the junior lienholders listed in the same order as designated on the permanent title record.
