The Song-Beverly Act applies to defects which constitute a substantial impairment to the use, value or safety of the vehicle to the owner or lessee. Therefore, inconveniences (static or poor reception in the radio, for example) normally do not make a Lemon Law claim. Serious problems with brakes, transmission, engine function, SRS/airbag, inoperable air conditioning, persistent water leaking, engine oil or transmission oil leaks, overheating, CHECK ENGINE, to cite a few, are examples of Lemon Law impairment to use, value, or safety of the vehicle. There are other federal laws that further expand on what is considered to be a defect that constitutes replacement of purchase price or a refund of monies spent.  more

If the defects can’t be repaired or the manufacturer refuse to repair the problem related to used vehicles then Lemon law is applied in this case. Few months ago I had bough a used car. At the time of buy I check all the papers and take a lemon law also. In couple of months it starts generating problem. Thanks go I had taken California lemon laws. When I go the dealer then he refused to repair the major problem. I used the California lemon law and within few days I get back all my money that I had invested on that. So always check the laws and then get the things.
