About the California Lemon Law
The California Lemon Law provides protection to consumers who have purchased or leased a defective vehicle within the manufacturer’s original warranty period. In order for a vehicle to qualify under the California Lemon Law, it must have a defect or “nonconformity” that substantially impairs the use, value, or safety of the vehicle. The manufacturer must be given a “reasonable” number of attempts to repair the vehicle. If the manufacturer is unable to repair the defective vehicle within a “reasonable” amount of attempts the auto manufacturer is obligated to promptly repurchase or replace the vehicle.

How Many Warranty Repair Attempts are Required to Qualify Under the California Lemon Law?
The California Lemon Law does not specify an exact number of repair attempts for a vehicle to qualify as a lemon. The law states that there must be a “reasonable” number of repair attempts on the vehicle. The number of repair attempts to satisfy this requirement is determined on a case-by-case basis, depending on the severity of the vehicle’s defect. This requirement may be satisfied by two or more repair attempts for safety-related defects and requires more repair attempts for non-safety related concerns. Alternatively, this requirement may be satisfied if the vehicle has been in the repair facility for a cumulative total of over 30 days (not necessarily at one time).
Does the California Lemon Law Apply to Vehicles with More than 18,000 Miles or Vehicles that are Older than 18 Months?
Yes. The California Lemon Law applies to vehicles with more than 18,000 miles or older than 18 months. A vehicle may qualify under the California Lemon Law if the vehicle has had multiple warranty repair attempts performed for one or more problems.
Does the California Lemon Law Apply to My Leased Vehicle?
Yes. The California Lemon Law applies to purchased, financed, and leased vehicles.
If My Vehicle Qualifies as a Lemon, What Remedies are Available to Me?
If your vehicle qualifies under the California Lemon Law, you may be entitled to a repurchase, cash settlement, or a replacement vehicle. The buyer of a lemon vehicle is entitled to receive a repurchase or “refund” of the down payment, monthly payments, registration fees, taxes, and incidental expenses incurred for related repairs, rental cars or towing, plus legal fees and costs (minus a statutory mileage offset for the miles driven before the first repair attempt). If you elect to receive a replacement vehicle, it would generally be the same MSRP value as your “lemon” vehicle.
