Is your vehicle a lemon?
California Lemon Law stipulates certain conditions under which a car may be eligible for legal action:
- Your car has problems that affect its use, value, or safety;
- These problems are covered by your manufacturer’s warranty; and
- The vehicle is still defective after you have given your dealership or repair shop a reasonable number of opportunities to repair it.
The law does not define a specific number of repair attempts needed before filing a claim. A vehicle may, however, be considered a lemon if, within 18 months or 18,000 miles:
- The defect isn’t fixed within four attempts;
- A potentially dangerous defect isn’t fixed within two attempts; or
- The vehicle has been in the repair shop for over 30 days in total.
It’s important to note, however, that the 18 month/18,000 mile guideline is not a requirement to file a lemon law claim—the number of repair attempts required varies on a case-by-case basis.
If you’re unsure whether your vehicle qualifies, contact us at 877-217-7676. We’ll examine the specifics of your situation and help you determine whether you’re covered under California’s lemon laws or under other consumer protection laws.
Bought a lemon? Here’s what to do.
If you recently purchased or leased a vehicle in the Bay Area and have been in and out of the shop, here’s what you should do:
1. Save all documentation: To build a case, you’ll need your bill of sale or lease agreement, the work orders from each repair attempt, the manufacturer’s warranty, and any other receipts related to the costs incurred as a result of the defects.
2. Notify the manufacturer: California law requires that the manufacturer be given the opportunity to repair the vehicle before you can file a claim.
3. Consult a San Francisco lemon law attorney: If the issue still has not been fixed, contact Lemon Law Help for guidance. We’ll review your case, explain your rights, and answer any questions you have about the legal process.
