Protecting Consumers With Defective Vehicles

Buying a vehicle should bring peace of mind. 

When it instead brings repeated repairs, breakdowns, and frustration, the law may protect you. 

At Mediator Law Group, we help consumers enforce their rights under state and federal Lemon Laws. If your vehicle has ongoing defects that the manufacturer cannot fix, you may be entitled to a refund or replacement.

What Is Lemon Law?

Lemon Laws are consumer protection laws designed to help people who purchase or lease defective vehicles. 

If a manufacturer cannot repair a substantial defect within a reasonable number of attempts, the law may require them to: 

  • Replace the vehicle 
  • Refund your money 
  • Pay related costs 

 

Each state has its own Lemon Law, and there are also federal protections under the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, which governs written warranties. 

What Qualifies as a “Lemon”?

While laws vary by state, a vehicle may qualify if: 

  • It has a substantial defect covered by warranty 
  • The defect affects safety, value, or use 
  • The manufacturer has had multiple repair attempts 
  • The vehicle has been out of service for an extended period 

 

Common qualifying issues include: 

  • Engine or transmission problems 
  • Brake system failures 
  • Electrical defects 
  • Steering or suspension issues 
  • Persistent warning lights 
  • Repeated stalling or breakdowns 

 

Not every repair issue qualifies, which is why careful evaluation matters.

New vs. Used Vehicles

Many people believe Lemon Law only applies to brand-new cars. 

That is not always true. 

Some states extend protections to certified pre-owned or used vehicles that remain under manufacturer warranty. Federal warranty protections may also apply depending on the circumstances. 

If you are unsure, it is worth having your case reviewed. 

What Compensation Can You Receive?

If your vehicle qualifies under Lemon Law, you may be entitled to: 

  • A full refund of your purchase price 
  • A replacement vehicle 
  • Reimbursement of registration and taxes 
  • Towing and rental car expenses 
  • Attorney’s fees 

 

In many cases, the manufacturer must pay your attorney’s fees if you prevail. 

Why Act Sooner Rather Than Later?

Lemon Law claims often have strict time limits. 

Waiting too long may impact your rights. Documentation is also critical. Repair orders, service records, and communication history help strengthen your case. 

The sooner you speak with an attorney, the clearer your path forward becomes.
