Frequently Asked Questions
How long does the Lemon Law process take?
The length of the process can vary depending on the complexity of the case and how cooperative the manufacturer is. Some cases are resolved within a few months, while others may take longer.
Our team works diligently to expedite the process and get you the best outcome as quickly as possible.
Does Lemon Law only apply to new cars?
While Lemon Laws primarily cover new or leased vehicles, some states also provide protection for used vehicles, especially if they are still covered under the manufacturer’s warranty.
It’s best to consult with an attorney to understand the specific laws in your state.
What types of vehicle issues are typically covered under Lemon Law?
The defects must affect the safety, value, or performance of the vehicle. Common covered defects include:
- Engine or transmission problems
- Brake or steering failures
- Electrical issues
- Airbag malfunctions
- Suspension or alignment defects
- Any other serious issue that affects the use of the vehicle
How many repair attempts qualify for a Lemon Law claim?
In most states, a vehicle qualifies as a lemon if the manufacturer has attempted to repair the same problem multiple times (usually 3-4 attempts) and failed to fix it.
Alternatively, if your vehicle has been out of service for 30 days or more due to repairs, you may also qualify.
Which vehicles are covered under Lemon Law?
Most new and leased vehicles are covered under the Lemon Law. This includes cars, trucks, SUVs, motorcycles, and sometimes even boats and RVs.
The vehicle must usually still be under the manufacturer’s warranty, and the problems must have occurred during this period.
What is a “lemon” under the Lemon Law?
A vehicle is considered a “lemon” if it has significant defects that impair its safety, use, or value, and the manufacturer has been unable to repair the issues after a reasonable number of attempts.
The exact criteria vary by state, but generally, if your vehicle has been in the shop for repeated repairs, you may have a valid claim.
Do I need to go to court for a breach of contract case?
Not necessarily. Many contract disputes can be resolved through negotiation, mediation, or arbitration without going to court. However, if necessary, our team is prepared to litigate on your behalf.
Can I still enforce a contract if there’s only a partial breach?
Yes, even a partial breach can give rise to a legal claim. Depending on the severity, you may be entitled to damages or contract enforcement.
How much time do I have to file a breach of contract claim?
The statute of limitations varies depending on the jurisdiction and type of contract. It’s important to act promptly to preserve your legal options.
What are the most common remedies for breach of contract?
The remedies for breach of contract typically include damages (monetary compensation), specific performance (forcing the breaching party to fulfill their part of the contract), or contract cancellation.
