Is Your New Vehicle a Lemon?

A new vehicle can become a major source of frustration when defects continue after the manufacturer or its authorized repair facility has had opportunities to fix them.

Problems that may warrant further evaluation can include:

  • Engine or transmission problems
  • Electrical or computer system issues
  • Braking or steering concerns
  • Recurring warning lights
  • Air conditioning or climate-control failures
  • Safety-related defects
  • Persistent noises, leaks, or performance problems
  • Other recurring warranty-covered defects

California's Lemon Law does not require every vehicle problem to be identical or for a vehicle to be completely unusable. The circumstances surrounding the defect, warranty, repair attempts, and manufacturer's response can all matter.

Keep Your Repair Records

Your repair history can be an important part of evaluating a potential Lemon Law claim. Save every repair order and document the problems you reported, the work performed, and how long the vehicle was unavailable.

You should also keep your:

  • Purchase or lease agreement
  • Current vehicle registration
  • Manufacturer warranty information
  • Dealer repair orders
  • Maintenance records
  • Communications with the dealership or manufacturer

Whether you're in the San Fernando Valley, Los Angeles, or elsewhere in California, our team is available to evaluate your situation.

New Car Lemon Law FAQs

  • How Many Repairs Does It Take for a New Car to Be a Lemon?

    There is no single number that automatically determines every Lemon Law case. California law considers whether the manufacturer has had a reasonable opportunity to repair the vehicle and other circumstances surrounding the claim.

  • Does My New Vehicle Have to Be Completely Unusable?

    No. A vehicle does not necessarily have to be completely undriveable for a Lemon Law claim to be considered. The type and seriousness of the defect and the repair history can be important.

  • Should I Continue Taking My Vehicle to the Dealership?

    If your vehicle has a warranty problem, follow the applicable warranty and manufacturer repair process and keep detailed records of every visit. If you're concerned about your rights, a case evaluation can help you understand your options.
