How to Spot a Lemon: 6 Easy Steps

01

Assess Your Vehicle’s Qualification

If you purchased your vehicle new or as a Certified Pre-owned, and it is less than 4 years old, it could qualify as a Lemon if it has recurring problems that the dealership is unable to repair under warranty.

02

Review Warranty & Repair Records​

Review the vehicle’s warranty and any repair records. Pay attention to any recurring issues that persist despite multiple repairs. These could indicate a deeper problem that might qualify the car as a lemon.

03

Track Recurring Issues

If your vehicle has been in the shop 2 or more times for the same issue while under warranty and the issue still exists, it is likely a Lemon. Keep detailed records of all repairs and the corresponding mileage.

04

Monitor Time in the Shop

If your vehicle is in the shop for 30 days within the first 18 months or 18,000 miles, or if it is in the shop for 30 consecutive days for a single repair, it may qualify as a Lemon. Could you document the time your vehicle spends in the repair shop?

05

Beware of Sensor Issues

Pay close attention to any warning lights on the dashboard, especially if they frequently turn on and off. Problems with sensors, such as faulty readings from the engine, brakes, or airbags, can be a sign of a deeper issue that might classify the vehicle as a lemon.

06

Lemon Law FAQs

Yes, the Lemon Law applies to both new and used vehicles as long as the vehicle was sold or leased with a warranty. This includes certified pre-owned vehicles and vehicles purchased with extended warranties.
The law covers cars, trucks, SUVs, motorcycles, RVs, and even certain leased vehicles. The vehicle must be intended primarily for personal, family, or household use. Some business vehicles may also qualify if they meet certain criteria.

If your vehicle is determined to be a lemon, you may be entitled to:

  • A full refund of the vehicle’s purchase price, including taxes and fees.
  • A replacement vehicle of similar value.
  • Compensation for repair costs, towing, rental cars, and more.

 

No. At Lyfe Law, we don’t charge any upfront fees or contingency fees. Under California Lemon Law, the vehicle manufacturer is responsible for paying attorney fees if you win your case. This means you pay nothing out of pocket for experienced legal representation.

The Lemon Law generally applies during the original warranty period of the vehicle. However, there may be additional rights under federal law that extend beyond the warranty period. It’s important to act quickly and consult with an attorney to avoid missing deadlines.
