PER CURIAM.
The final judgment under review by this appeal is reversed as to the appellant A-United Auto Rentals of Broward County, Inc. and the cause is remanded to the trial court with directions to order a new trial in this cause as to punitive damages only [the default judgment and the compensatory damage award against the appellant being undisturbed by our ruling herein] upon a holding that it was reversible error for the trial court to have conducted a trial on punitive damages in this cause without properly notifying the appellant thereof, as such damages were unliquidated in nature. B/G Amusements, Inc. v. Mystery Fun House, Inc., 381 So.2d 318, 320 (Fla. 5th DCA 1980); Fla.R.Civ.P. 1.440(c). In all other respects the judgment under review is affirmed.
Affirmed in part; reversed and remanded in part.
