The California Lemon Law - What Are The Rights Of Californians Regarding This Law?

By:


This law, the Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act, better known as the California Lemon Law was put into place to protect the rights of all Californians no matter where they live in the state. If anyone feels they purchased a lemon vehicle, whether it is a car, truck, RV or motorcycle, they have a right to get retribution under this law.

This law is the vehicle consumer's best friend and over the years has helped countless people to fight the giant and powerful automobile manufacturers and force them to make good on their lemon vehicles. As long as the vehicle is still under warranty, it doesn't matter if it's new, used or leased. Warranty's stated in very clear language what they cover and if the vehicle doesn't hold up, you can demand remuneration.

The California Lemon Law gives the consumer many rights such as: the right to sue for a replacement or money back, the right to be reimbursed for any and all payments made on the vehicle, costs of a rental car, costs of towing and any other expenses having to do with the vehicle defect. And, if the vehicle cannot be fixed after a reasonable number of attempts have been made, then the consumer is entitled to a full refund or a replacement vehicle of equal or better value.

The only suggestion that everyone that has gone through this can give is that you get yourself an attorney that specializes in this law. There is much legal jargon that only attorneys will understand. You see, many manufacturers will dispute your claim and if you don't know this law inside and out, they will take advantage of this and you might lose your claim.

Most attorneys will give you a free consultation. And many will even do a free evaluation to see if you qualify under this law. What you should look for though is also someone that will work for you without any out of pocket expense. What these attorneys do is to take a percentage of what they make for you. What's so good about that is if they don't recover any money, then you pay them nothing. Therefore, you have nothing to lose.

Just remember that this law was put in effect for you. Make use of it. If you believe you have a lemon, don't wait; get evaluated. Take advantage of this law. Don't think it's too much trouble. Let an attorney that won't cost you any out of pocket money do all the work for you. It will be worth it in the long run.
