Irvine Lemon Law Lawyer

If you purchase a vehicle covered under a manufacturer’s warranty, there is a reasonable expectation that you will not need to repair the vehicle for anything serious in the short term, especially if the vehicle was purchased new.

Manufacturer express warranties exist just in case something unexpected goes wrong, but unfortunately, many manufacturers will fight warranty claims. An Irvine lemon law attorney can help if you have experienced such an incident.

The Lemon Law Offers Strong Protection for Consumers

The California Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act, applicable statewide, is referred to as the lemon law, and is one of the strongest legal protections for consumers in the state when it comes to vehicle purchases. A lemon is a vehicle that fails to perform as advertised, contains defects, or presents diminished value, use, or safety shortly after purchase. The law provides a legal remedy to consumers who have purchased lemons, holding manufacturers accountable.

The state’s lemon law is one of the most flexible and robust in the country when it comes to the level of protection it provides. If you believe you have purchased a lemon, an experienced Irvine lemon law attorney can help navigate the process of holding a manufacturer accountable under the terms of their express warranty. Every warranty is different, and each contains complex terms and conditions, so you should not attempt this type of claim alone.

A vehicle can qualify as a lemon after the consumer has directly contacted the manufacturer and reasonable attempts have been made by the manufacturer to repair the problem. “Reasonable” is a subjective term, but generally, this means the manufacturer has attempted at least four times to repair an issue. This drops to two attempts if the issue is considerably dangerous, presenting a risk of great bodily harm or death on the road.

The lemon law will also apply if the vehicle has been out of commission for more than 30 cumulative days after the claimant takes delivery of the vehicle. However, it is possible for the manufacturer to have an extension granted if any forces outside of their control prevent them from performing the necessary repairs on the vehicle. Your attorney can address any such issues that might arise with your claim.

The lemon law applies to purchased and leased vehicles, including used vehicles still covered by a manufacturer’s warranty. If you are having trouble parsing through the details of your vehicle’s express warranty, an Irvine lemon law attorney can help. If you intend to seek a resolution to the issue, your attorney can streamline the process substantially and ensure you receive fair treatment from the manufacturer.

Resolving Your Lemon Law Claim in Irvine

Your Irvine lemon law attorney can guide you through the process of filing your claim and reaching an acceptable resolution with the manufacturer. The majority of lemon law claims in California are resolved through vehicle replacement or refund. Both the manufacturer and the claimant must agree to a replacement, but it is natural for the claimant to be wary of accepting the same type of vehicle that just recently gave them so much trouble.

If you choose a refund, the manufacturer is required to buy back the vehicle at the price you paid, but you will be charged for the mileage you added to the odometer between the time you took delivery of the vehicle and the time of the first repair. Your Irvine lemon law attorney can ensure the manufacturer’s offer is fair and reasonable. If you tried to handle the claim alone, the manufacturer may have attempted to offer a lowball settlement.
