The lemon law problem is defective vehicles! Every year in the U.S. auto makers buy back more than 75,000 cars, trucks and vans, and that's not counting motorcycles, RV's, and mobilehomes. Consumer groups say that most of these vehicles are "lemons" - vehicles with some sort of manufacturing defect that cannot be fixed by the dealer.

The National Association of Consumer Agency Administrators and the Consumer Federation of America report that consumer complaints related to used car sales rank first, auto repair complaints rank third, and complaints related to new car sales rank fourth. In other words, three of the top four consumer complaints and consumer fraud complaints involve cars.

Most states now have consumer protection, "lemon laws" in the area of new car sales and leases, and under certain circumstances used car sales. These laws state that if your situation qualifies, the manufacturer has to make good on any vehicle which qualifies as a "lemon," which you purchased or leased for personal or most business uses.

Did you know that if you’ve purchased a lemon, the California lemon laws may allow us to have the manufacturer repurchase your vehicle and refund most of your money?

Your situation qualifies for these consumer protection laws if your vehicle has a manufacturing defect which affects the safety, value, or use of the vehicle, cannot be repaired after a reasonable number of repair attempts, and the original repair occurred within the new car warranty period. A demonstrator vehicle, and used vehicles purchased while under the manufacturer’s new car warranty, are also covered.
