How Many California Vehicles Qualify as Lemons Each Year?

Our California lemon law attorney in Los Angeles at Shainfeld Law, P.C. knows that when California residents buy or lease a new or used vehicle that is still under the manufacturer’s warranty, they are often surprised to learn that they may have a lemon on their hands.

Unfortunately, it is estimated that more than 150,000 vehicles sold in California are lemons. However, since it is not just cars, trucks, and SUVs that qualify under the California Lemon Law — as RVs, boats, and motorcycles are also protected by the law — experts believe the number to be much higher, and closer to 200,000 vehicles total.

Our California lemon lawyer knows that when consumers believe their vehicle is exhibiting defects that cannot be fixed by the dealership after a qualifying number of attempts, they cannot believe this is happening to them. The reality is, you are not alone. The better news is, our Los Angeles lemon law attorney has produced real results for hundreds of real people just like you who were in the same position.

We have a 99% success rate, and typically produce results for our California lemon law clients in as little as 30-60 days.

How Do I Know If My Vehicle Qualifies as a Lemon in California?

Consumers must meet several requirements before their vehicle qualifies as a lemon in California.

That includes:

  • The vehicle is covered by an existing and valid manufacturer’s warranty.
  • The vehicle was purchased from a dealer or manufacturer, not a private seller.
  • The vehicle has undergone a reasonable number of repair attempts for the same issue without a remedy.

If you believe your vehicle is exhibiting signs of being a lemon, take action right away, so your rights are protected from the beginning.

If we can prove your claim, the vehicle’s manufacturer will be liable for repurchasing or replacing the defective vehicle or providing a cash settlement as an alternative remedy.

The vehicle manufacturer will also be responsible for paying our legal fees, so you will never pay any out-of-pocket costs to pursue a positive outcome. Call us now to learn more.
