I purchased a used vehicle from a car dealership, and it was sold AS-IS, but I purchased an extended warranty, can I qualify for California Lemon Law protection?
no. Firstly, on the AS-IS point, if there is no warranty being provided, it automatically means no lemon law claim or case as there is no warranty in place. On the second point of extended warranty, in California there is no such thing as an extended warranty being sold to a consumer. A warranty is described as something you are given as part of the sale transaction you dont pay for it. The moment you purchase what you are being represented as an extended warranty, you are actually purchasing a Service Contract or Mechanical Breakdown policy, both of which are simply insurance policies against unexpected breakdowns. These policies are not repeat not applicable to California lemon law. That being said, there is one German manufacturer that if you do purchased one of their Certified Pre-Owned Cars, you can buy their factory extended warranty protection, and this is a warranty, as the word warranty appears on the application form. This is not the norm, but rather the exception. California
