When you buy a new car, you expect to get years of reliability and flawless function. Unfortunately, motor vehicles are complex, with intricate mechanical and electrical systems.

Since 1970, California’s Lemon Law has ensured those who buy or lease a defective vehicle have legal options available to them. California Civil Code §1793.22 states the following:
“ §1793.22 requires vehicle manufacturers to replace a new vehicle, or make restitution to the consumer if, after making a reasonable number of attempts to repair it, the vehicle does not conform to applicable warranties.”
The original language of the statute leaves room for interpretation with the vague description of a “reasonable number” of repair attempts. Fortunately, the courts have clarified that a vehicle is a lemon if it meets a set of specific criteria.
Under the California Lemon Law, any car, truck, or SUV with a persistent defect may be a lemon if it meets the following qualifications:
Leased vehicles may also qualify for Lemon Law refunds as do used vehicles if they were sold with a written warranty issued at the time of sale.
If the Lemon Law applies to your car, truck, SUV, or motorcycle, you can hold the manufacturer accountable. Call the Lemon Law lawyers in Santa Ana to evaluate your claim to see if you have a case. Meanwhile, gather documentation such as the bill of sale, registration, repair invoices, your manufacturer’s warranty, and receipts for related expenses such as rental car or rideshare bills. Preparing for your claim helps to streamline the process for a faster resolution.
A successful Lemon Law claim in Santa Ana holds the manufacturer responsible for selling a car that is a lemon. The law compels the manufacturer of a lemon to refund the money the consumer paid toward the car or entitles them to a replacement vehicle of equal value.
An unsafe, unreliable vehicle can lead to an accident as well as months of inconvenience and distress. Don’t try to take on a complex claim with powerful manufacturers on your own. Often, manufacturers direct consumers to arbitrators who are not on the consumer’s side. Call or contact the Santa Ana Lemon Law lawyers at Young & Young, APC today so we can address the problem with prompt action and the right resolution for your Santa Ana Lemon Law case.
