Buying a new vehicle should be an exciting experience, but when the car has serious defects that cannot be repaired, it can quickly become a nightmare. This is where the Lemon Law comes into play. This law protects California consumers and ensures that they are not stuck with a defective vehicle. In this blog, we explore the main benefits the Lemon Law offers consumers affected by "lemon" vehicles.
1. Protection for new and used vehicle purchasers
One of the major benefits of the Lemon Law is that it protects both new and used vehicle buyers as long as they are covered by a manufacturer's warranty. This guarantees consumers' rights, even if they purchase a used vehicle with serious mechanical problems.
2. Guaranteed repairs or replacements
The Lemon Law requires manufacturers to attempt to repair the vehicle within a reasonable number of attempts. If defects persist, the manufacturer must offer a replacement or full refund. This repair or replacement guarantee prevents consumers from being stuck with a defective vehicle.
3. Fair Refunds
If the manufacturer cannot fix the problem, you are entitled to a full refund of the value of the vehicle, including taxes, fees, and other related costs. In addition, in some cases, consumers may also receive additional compensation for damages suffered due to the defective vehicle.
4. Covered legal costs.
Another important benefit of the California Lemon Law is that, if they win the case, the manufacturer must cover the consumer's attorney's fees. This means you don't have to worry about legal costs, as the manufacturer will be responsible for paying them.
