You roll out of the dealership with your new vehicle. You’ve spent money on what you thought was a good purchase.
Then the problems begin. You find yourself in the shop – dealing with one car problem after the next. You are constantly on the phone and dropping your defective vehicle off at the dealership. You are driving a rental what seems like more often than you have your own car. Bottom line, you are spending hour after hour dealing with problems you know you shouldn’t be having – you suspect you have a lemon.
You’re not stuck. There are “lemon laws” under which you have rights. Each case is different because your rights are defined by the lemon laws in California and the warranty that came with your vehicle.

They don’t back down because they don’t expect you to fully take advantage of your lemon law rights.

The California Lemon Law, outlined in Civ. Code § 1793.2 et seq. is designed to protect consumers who have purchased cars that are not working as they should.
California’s lemon law says consumers have the right to a refund or replacement when they buy vehicles that need constant repairs or have serious and persistent mechanical problems.
Formally known as the Tanner Consumer Protection Act, the lemon law covers all motor vehicles sold or leased in California with a manufacturer’s warranty. It lays out the process dissatisfied vehicle buyers can follow to recover the money they paid for a “lemon” and all related costs, like repairs and towing.
The law covers all types of motor vehicles sold with a manufacturer’s warranty in California.
The majority of Lemon Law cases are attributed to defective brand new and even not “new motor vehicle” automobiles. Our California car lemon law attorneys can help.
When you purchase or lease a new motorcycle the California Lemon Law can be a very powerful tool when dealing with giant vehicle manufacturers. Reach out to our motorcycle lemon law attorneys in California if you have been sold a lemon.
If the manufacturer or dealer is unable to service or repair the truck they sold to you, then the California Lemon Law protects you.
Have you purchased a defective recreational vehicle (RV)? You’re not alone. Our California RV Lemon Law Attorneys can help.
If the manufacturer or dealer is unable to service or repair the bus to meet the terms of the warranty then the manufacturer is required to replace the vehicle or refund your money.
As well as the part of a motor home that functions as a vehicle (not the part used as a habitation).
Leased vehicles are covered, because they should have a warranty. Used vehicles can be covered as long as the manufacturer’s original warranty applies. Cars used for business qualify as long as the business owns five or fewer vehicles. Vehicles intended for off-road use, like ATVs and “dirt bikes,” are not covered but you still have protection under the Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act.
If your vehicle’s manufacturer does not promptly offer you a replacement or refund for a known lemon, you should contact California lemon law attorney Valerie G. Fernandez Campbell. We will file a lawsuit seeking the money or replacement that you’re legally entitled to. The manufacturer may settle with you outside of court, or your case may go to trial. Attorney Valerie G. Fernandez Campbell can tell you more about the process in your own lemon law case.
If you win a lemon law claim, you can choose to either replace your vehicle at no cost to you or receive a full refund. This is your choice, not the “manufacturers”. In a lemon lawsuit, you are also entitled to ask for a refund of all the additional costs the lemon caused, such as towing and rental cars.
Retaining an experienced attorney will ensure you do not waive any of your rights. Even if you would prefer to “settle” and just get “some of your payments back,” working with an attorney will help you negotiate the process. And, again, this is all done at no cost to you, as our services will be paid for by the manufacturer.

When a lot of cars are mass produced by a motor vehicle manufacturer, the occasional mistake can be made, overlooked or missed by inspectors. Sometimes, a bad design can even be put into production.
If you’ve bought a car, truck, motorcycle or other motor vehicle and you got one of the “mistakes,” you have a way in California to reverse your bad luck. The State of California recognizes that their help is needed to defend your warranty rights against the large and powerful manufacturers of motor vehicles.
They are state and federal consumer protection laws that were enacted to protect consumers from the reluctance of motor vehicle manufacturers to treat consumers in a fair and honorable manner. When your manufacturer cannot honor their warranties and treat consumers in a fair and reasonable fashion, the laws provide protection to those who have bought or leased these motor vehicles. The laws allow manufacturers a reasonable number of repair attempts, but manufacturers who fail to properly repair the motor vehicle must either replace the vehicle or refund the consumer’s money. The defect or problem with the motor vehicle must be substantial and the manufacturer must be given an opportunity to repair.
If LemonLaw123.com and your records show your motor vehicle is a lemon, you can receive three things:
1. A replacement vehicle or cash refund.
2. All your monthly payments, registration costs, taxes paid and down payment.
3. Your reasonable costs and expenses such as towing costs, rental costs and your reasonable fees and costs for an attorney.
The lemon law protection begins after the first time it was taken to the dealer to correct or repair the problem. If you delay reporting the problem of the motor vehicle to the dealer, the manufacturer is entitled to deduct a usage fee for the miles you used the vehicle without any problems. This means the manufacturer can request that you pay a usage fee for the good or trouble free miles you drove the motor vehicle before you reported the problem.
Manufacturers can offer to replace your vehicle with a new model just like your current “lemon” vehicle. If you loved the vehicle, but wish it was not a “lemon” you would receive the replacement model and your loan or lease payment would remain the same. You can be charged for any use you made of the vehicle before you reported the problem to a dealer and any taxes or fees that are owed.
Solving a lemon law claim can take as little as 30 days. However, some lemon law cases are complicated and often take 3-6 months to complete.
Most lemon law attorneys charge contingency fees at the rate of between 30-40%. Although California lemon law requires a manufacturer to pay the legal fee after the consumer wins the case, it’s essential to understand the breakdown.
If the used vehicle you purchased is no longer covered by the original manufacturer’s warranty, your car may still qualify as a lemon if the dealer you purchased it from included their own warranty (usually a 30, 60, or 90-day warranty, if anything).
The California Lemon Law protects consumers who purchase cars that don’t function properly. It limits how many repair attempts a manufacturer can make before they are required to buy back or replace the vehicle. If a car with a manufacturer’s warranty continues to have issues after several repairs, the manufacturer must offer a refund or a replacement.
California’s Lemon Law protects consumers when a vehicle has a persistent problem that hasn’t been resolved despite a reasonable number of repair attempts. This is known as the Lemon Law Presumption.
For the Lemon Law Presumption to apply, the following conditions must be met:
