Buying, Selling, or Leasing a Vehicle

Lemon Laws

What are lemon laws?

They usually apply to new cars purchased for personal, family, or household use. These laws entitle you to a replacement car or a refund if your new car is so defective that it is beyond satisfactory repair by the dealer. You must, however, give the dealer a reasonable opportunity to repair the car.
