San Jose Lemon Law

In many cases, I am amazed at the things told consumers by the dealerships and manufacturers. I like to tell consumers they should never take legal advice from a car dealer or manufacturer. If you have questions about your car or whether or not you qualify for a refund under the Lemon Law, just ask one of our experienced Lemon Law Attorneys. Based on our experience in dealing with these cases on a daily basis, we can answer any questions you may have about your Lemon Law case.
What is a "Lemon" vehicle under the California Lemon Law?
The California Lemon Law gives California consumers the ability to get a refund for their defective cars and trucks. The California Lemon Law covers new and used vehicles sold or leased in California. Vehicles purchased outside of California by active duty military stationed in California are also covered by the California Lemon Law.
To qualify for a refund under the California Lemon Law, the defective car must first undergo multiple repair attempts by the dealership under the manufacturer's bumper-to-bumper warranty. Under the Lemon Law a consumer can ask for a refund, new replacement vehicle, or cash compensation.
What are the requirements for a refund or new replacement vehicle under the California Lemon Law?
A car is a Lemon if it has a substantial defect and the use, value or safety of the car is substantially impaired. If the car has been repaired 3 or more times for the same defect within the manufacturer's bumper-to-bumper warranty period and the defect was never fixed to your satisfaction, it may qualify as a "LEMON" and you can get a refund, including tax, dmv fees, and loan interest.
