Lemon Law in Southern California

Every state has lemon laws that protect consumers from faulty vehicles or products, commonly referred to as “lemons.” Federal law also protects consumers for “lemon” claims under the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act.  All of these laws share a common objective of protecting consumers against the abuses of unreasonable manufacturers, but the specific provisions of each state’s lemon laws vary widely. That’s why you need an experienced lemon law attorney like Chas Pernice who is familiar with the lemon laws in all of the states where your case may proceed.

What is a “lemon” under California Law?

A lemon is a vehicle in which the defective condition substantially impairs its use, value or safety. A valid lemon law claim arises when defects demand continuous repair, even if the dealership successfully repairs each defect, as long as the problem continues to occur.

California’s lemon laws are derived from the “Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act” found in the California Civil Code and provide the legal basis upon which consumers may file lawsuits against the manufacturers of defective products including cars, trucks, motorcycles, RVs, boats and aircraft.
