Moreno Valley Lemon Law
Californiaās Lemon Law protects consumers who have purchased or leased new or used vehicles that have been repeatedly serviced for the same defect. The law applies to cars, trucks, motorcycles, motorhomes, and other vehicles.
Under the law, a vehicle is considered a lemon if it has a substantial defect that cannot be repaired within a certain number of attempts. If this is the case, then the manufacturer must either replace the vehicle or provide a refund.
Additionally, consumers may be able to pursue other damages from the dealer or manufacturer, such as fraud, breach of contract, or violations of consumer protection laws.
Other guidelines for the Lemon Law may vary depending on the type of vehicle and other factors. Our experienced attorneys can help you understand your rights under Californiaās Lemon Law and determine if you have a valid claim.
