Information on California Lemon Law
June 28, 2007 (Press Release) --
Lemon Law in California:
Most state “Lemon Laws” are at least loosely modeled upon the Federal Lemon Law known as the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act.
Know more about Lemon Law in your state and get rid of your lemon.
A recent court ruling by the California Supreme Court has ruled that the California lemon law applies only to vehicles actually purchased within the state.
This may come as a strong blow to Californians, who enjoy the first, and one of the most powerful, lemon laws in the United States. Consumers, who buy their vehicles out of state, bring them home, and then find out that they have non conformities that prevent them from being repaired will find out that they have no protection under California Lemon law.
California Lemon Laws and the federal Lemon Law (the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act) provide for compensation to California consumers of defective automobiles and trucks and other vehicles and products including motorcycles, RV’s, boats, computers and other consumer appliances and products.
Attorneys for the state of California called the ruling fair, pointing out that enforcing the statute costs money, and that it doesn’t seem reasonable for the law to represent buyers who don’t pay the sales taxes that support it.
The savings encountered when purchasing a vehicle in a neighboring, lower-taxed state may be significant. Anyone planning such a purchase should be aware, however, that the savings may turn out not to be all that significant if the vehicle turns out to be defective. A $5000 savings on a defective, useless quarter of a million dollar motor home is no bargain. Buyers should exercise caution.
Following are 6 steps to California Lemon Law Defense:
1. Bring you vehicle in early
2. Keep repair orders
3. Be consistent in your complaints
4. Check on TSB’s
5. Don’t be misled by bad advice
6. Beware of Arbitration
