The Lemon Law
The Lemon Law is a legal rule that helps consumers when a new vehicle they buy has serious problems that can’t be fixed after a reasonable number of repair attempts. If your new car consistently has issues like engine trouble or safety defects and repairs don’t resolve them, the law may require the manufacturer to replace the vehicle or refund your money. The specifics vary by state, but overall, the Lemon Law aims to protect buyers from defective vehicles that remain problematic despite repairs, ensuring fair treatment and recourse.
