Determining Whether My Vehicle Is a “Lemon”

A “lemon” is a car, SUV, truck or other vehicle that has never really worked correctly from the start.  Whether it’s slow acceleration, faulty brakes or a myriad of other mechanical problems, a vehicle like this never functions correctly no matter how many times you take it in for repairs. To determine whether you have a Lemon Law claim, check to see whether your new vehicle is still under the original manufacturer’s warranty. If it is, you probably have a claim. If you own a used vehicle, then you will need one of three specific warranties to have a Lemon Law claim. These warranties are discussed in greater detail in a separate section below. Either way, you need to have made a “reasonable number of attempts” to get your new vehicle repaired before filing a legal claim. Find out more in: Do You Have a Lemon?

How Much Does It Cost to Hire a La Habra Lemon Law Lawyer?

Here’s the great news, if your claim is successful, the law requires the auto manufacturer to pay your legal fees. If for some reason your claim is unsuccessful, then you owe us nothing. To get started on your claim, call our La Habra lemon law attorneys at (888) 407-2955 for a free consultation on your lemon.

How Do I Choose the Best Lemon Law Attorney in La Habra?

Do your research and find out what other clients are saying about a law firm. Go online and read client reviews. Were these clients satisfied with the service they received, or did they feel like they were just a number on a file? Did their lemon law lawyer answer their questions and take time to explain things, or was he always in a hurry? Take a minute to explore a law firm’s website and read the attorneys’ bios. Have they won major settlements and financial awards for their clients? At Neale & Fhima, we treat every client as an important individual, and we take great care in answering all their questions.

What Defects Are Covered Under the Lemon Law?

The Lemon Law in California refers to “nonconformities,” which are defined as any defect or malfunction that is covered by the manufacturer’s original warranty.  Nonconformities compromise the use, value or safety of the vehicle. A skilled and experienced La Habra lemon law attorney can explain the ins and outs of nonconformities in greater detail and help determine whether you have a claim.

What Are the Steps to Filing a Lemon Law Claim in La Habra?

The process starts by sending a demand letter to your vehicle’s manufacturer. One of our La Habra lemon law attorneys at Neale & Fhima can do this on your behalf. Our attorneys expect resistance because auto manufacturers are multinational corporations with dozens of lawyers who work hard to defeat lawsuits and reduce financial payouts. Our aggressive La Habra lemon law attorneys are not intimidated by this. At Neale & Fhima, we pride ourselves on creating legal strategies that give our clients the best possible opportunities to succeed with their legal claims.

Is There a Time Limit on Filing a Lemon Law Claim?

There sure is! The statute of limitations under California’s Lemon Law is four years, but don’t wait that long. If you have purchased or leased a lemon, start collecting copies of your repair bills and call a La Habra lemon law attorney right away.  The longer you wait, the more frustrated you will become.

What About California’s Lemon Law and Used Cars?

Some used cars are covered under California’s Lemon Law, depending on whether your car has a warranty. If you bought the car “as is,” then the law does not apply, unless you can prove that fraud was involved. But if you have one of three specific warranties, then you may be protected. A La Habra lemon law attorney can help you determine whether you have the right kind of warranty to proceed with a claim.  Here are the three types of warranties that qualify:

Transferred New Car Warranty

As a buyer of a recent model used car, you may have a copy of the manufacturer’s new car warranty.  When a titled vehicle is sold to a new owner and the vehicle is still under its original warranty period, the warranty protections transfer to you for the duration of that period.

Certified Pre-Owned (CPO) Warranty

“Certified Pre-Owned” vehicles have more protections than typical used cars.  Only authorized dealerships can sell CPOs, so if you bought your vehicle elsewhere, this warranty will not apply to you.  Certified Pre-Owned means that these used cars have been inspected, repaired and resold, and therefore they come with a CPO warranty.

Lemon Law Buyback Warranty

If you buy a used car that was once a lemon (but the manufacturer repaired it and resold it), then you should have received a “lemon law buyback warranty.”  Manufacturers are required by law to provide new owners of these buyback lemons a 12-month/12,000-mile warranty covering the lemon’s defect.

A La Habra used car lemon law attorney can help you sort your way through this somewhat complicated maze of used car warranties to determine whether you have a claim.    Call us at (888) 407-2955 and we’ll answer your questions.

Overview of California Lemon Law

A surprising number of new vehicles roll off the assembly line with significant defects. Whether this is because of poor design or poor workmanship is anybody’s guess. Some of the defects pose serious safety risks, and all of them lead to major frustration for owners.

The California Lemon Law is known officially as the Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act. This act was passed by the California General Assembly to protect unsuspecting consumers who buy these vehicles in good faith and don’t find out about the defects until after they sign the sales contract.  If you are one of these car buyers in La Habra, California, don’t hesitate to contact Neale & Fhima.  You don’t have to put up with a defective vehicle.
