National State Local – What You Should Know About Lemon Laws

Lemon laws are state laws that offer some relief to people who have bought cars that continuously do not meet quality and performance standards. While the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act does protect all Americans, most states have their own additional laws, called lemon laws that define what a lemon is in that particular state. State laws can vary greatly from state to state and what you may consider a lemon may not meet your individual state's definition.

Generally, if you've had your car in for repair at least four times for the same problem, you may have a lemon. If you suspect your car is a lemon, there are certain things you need to do to prove your case.

This also goes for inspection's, if your vehicle does not pass for any reason the dealership is responsible to fix it and to see it will pass inspection at no charge also. Lemon laws can vary, but not by to much it depends on the state you reside in. But in most cases they are the same. Lemon laws also give you the right to a full refund if you are not satisfied with your purchase as long as it is within the 30 day period.

First off you have to find out if your state considers your vehicle a lemon, each state would have a different definition of a lemon. If your car is not considered a lemon in your state, don't worry there are other options you can take to remedy the situation.

The dealership you take your car into to be repaired will probably not provide you with any service bulletins from the manufacturer regarding your specific make and model of vehicle. It is up to you to ask for them, and if you suspect your car is a lemon, it is highly suggested that you do so.

Consult an Attorney

If you believe your car is a lemon, you should consult a qualified attorney in your state to see if you have a claim under your state's lemon laws. Make sure the attorney you consult is familiar with lemon laws of your state.

Conclusion

It can be frustrating to keep taking your car into the dealership for the same problem over and over again. If this is happening to you, it's possible your car is a lemon and you may want to investigate whether or not your car falls under your individual state's definition of a lemon
