Lemon Law

Lemon Law is a legal protection for consumers who purchase new or used vehicles that turn out to have significant problems or defects that cannot be fixed after a reasonable number of repair attempts. If a vehicle is considered a "lemon," the manufacturer is typically required to replace the vehicle or refund the purchase price. These laws vary by state but aim to ensure buyers are not stuck with unreliable vehicles and encourage manufacturers to maintain high quality standards. To qualify, the vehicle usually needs to have ongoing issues within a certain time frame or mileage limit.
