Buying a new car, or even a car that is new to you, can be an exciting — though stressful — experience.
But when that exciting experience turns into one filled with constant problems and the vehicle you purchased either never functioned as it was supposed to or the problems never seemed to be fixed no matter how many repairs you paid for, contact the American Lemon Law Group to assist you in making the auto manufacturer do the right thing: take the sour lemons back.
Though not all car owners know their rights when they purchase a faulty vehicle, lemon laws are in place to protect the consumer and help prevent or remedy financial loss.
How Lemon Laws Protect Car Buyers
Essentially, lemon laws are designed to provide some legal remedy to those owners who purchase a car with a serious mechanical or safety defect that gives the owners no other choice but to place their car in the shop for repairs or tow it to the dealer’s garage for replacement.
In most states, a vehicle qualifies as a lemon if:
- It has a substantial defect that affects its use, safety, or value.
- The defect persists after a reasonable number of repair attempts.
- The vehicle has been at the garage for repairs for an extended period of time.
If either situation fits your vehicle, you can contact the American Lemon Law Group for help in understanding what is — and is not — allowed according to lemon law in your state.
To learn more about federal laws, you can visit the Federal Trade Commission’s (FTC) website and read up on laws regarding warranties and consumer protections.

Why Legal Support Matters in Lemon Law Cases
1. Leveling the Playing Field
Manufacturers have their legal teams ready on their side to help mitigate the impact of lemon laws. If a consumer doesn’t have help on their side to fight for their consumer rights then there’s a good chance that they’re going to be left holding the short end of the stick. Contact the American Lemon Law Group for such cases and to ensure such manufacturers do not get off the hook.
2. Speeding Up the Process
For consumers who purchase a faulty vehicle, choosing between two lousy options — putting the car in the shop where it may (or may not) work the way they agreed to pay for it to, or not repairing the car and having a very expensive paper weight sitting in your driveway— is a lot but, with a knowledgeable team from the American Lemon Law Group to assist you, all will be done in no time.
3. Ensuring Maximum Compensation
Most people think that they can get a replacement vehicle and that’s it when they think about lemon laws but most lemon laws have stipulations built right in so they can also be repaid in other forms, such as rental and tow bills. An experienced attorney will work to make sure that you’re repaid in the way you deserve.
