Our California lemon law attorney in Los Angeles at Shainfeld Law, P.C. knows that once a vehicle make or model gets a reputation for being a “lemon” it is a difficult label for the manufacturer to shake.
The fact is, vehicles that are “lemons” come in different shapes, sizes, and models ranging from expensive SUVs and modestly priced sedans to boats and RVs.
According to the California Lemon Law, the only real factor that ties vehicles that are lemons together is the fact that they cannot be fixed after a qualifying number of attempts.
What are the Most Common Issues that Make a Car Eligible for a Lemon Law Claim?
There are some similarities in California lemon law cases, including those that cause safety issues for those inside.
There are general or common “problems” that may lead to a legitimate claim, typically because they seriously impact the vehicle’s ability to operate.
Common lemon law issues may involve serious drivability issues including, but not limited to:
- Transmission lunging, jumping, lurching, and jerky shifting.
- Oil, coolant, water, or fuel leakage.
- Engine failure, overheating, or sluggish performance.
- Brakes, steering column, or axle issues.
What most consumers do not know is, their vehicle trouble can extend much further to:
- Air conditioning or heating systems.
- Back-up cameras.
- Doors.
- Paint.
- Power loss and electrical system problems.
- Windows.
