Volvo Lemon Law Information

Do You Have a Volvo Lemon?

Although Volvos are considered to be a top safety choice for consumers, not all Volvos are created the same. If you find yourself repeatedly presenting your Volvo for repairs while under warranty, chances are that your Volvo is a lemon.
If your Volvo is a lemon, you have rights. We have both state and federal lemon laws that provide consumer protection in the form of a vehicle refund, replacement vehicle, cash compensation and/or the payment of reasonable attorneys fees and costs.

Volvo Lemon Law FAQs

Did you know that 1% of all Volvos that are purchased or leased are lemons. The California lemon laws apply to new, used, purchased and leased Volvos. Below are some of our frequently asked questions about Volvo lemon law claims.
What am I entitled to if my Volvo is a lemon? If your Volvo is a lemon, you are entitled to a refund, replacement Volvo or cash compensation. If you choose a refund, Volvo will reimburse you all monies you spent on your Volvo including your monthly payments, down payment, pro-rated registration, taxes and fees, minus a usage fee. The usage fee is a value for when you drove the Volvo ‘trouble-free.’ If you choose a replacement, Volvo will replace your lemon Volvo with one that is substantially similar. If you choose cash compensation, you will retain your current Volvo and receive cash compensation for its diminished value as a result of its defects.
Does the Lemon Law Apply to my Used Volvo? The California lemon law does apply to used vehicles as long as you purchased the used vehicle with a warranty and the repairs took place during the warranty period. Often times, used vehicles are sold while still under the manufacturer warranty. If this is the case and your vehicle was repaired while under warranty, you may qualify for lemon law relief.
