In California, your vehicle is considered a lemon if it has met the following requirements:
- Your vehicle is under warranty and has been brought to the dealer twice.
- The defects are substantial and affect the vehicle’s value, safety, and use.
- Your vehicle has spent more than 30 days in the dealership, consecutive or not, but the problem persists.
Keep in mind that lemon law covers both new and used vehicles. It doesn’t cost anything to hire an attorney. They’ll check if you have a case, and if you do, they’ll handle it on your behalf, free of charge. They only get paid if you win.
I have once purchased a lemon and used this company to represent me. I was happy with how they assisted me and the compensation they got me in the end. They have handled General Motors, Nissan, GMC, and Chevy lemon law cases and are most experienced in this field.
