Lemon Law... Changes in the California Lemon Law

California’s Lemon Law was recently revised, adding valuable new protection for consumers of new vehicles purchased or leased after January 1, 2001.  Under this new revision, if a vehicle is repaired two times for a defect that is likely to result in serious bodily injury or death, the vehicle is “presumed” to be a lemon.

This is great news for consumers with problems such as vehicle stalling, brake failure, steering problems, and other obvious safety related issues.

In addition, the new revision states that vehicles used primarily for business purposes are also entitled to Lemon Law protection, as long as the registered owner of the vehicle does not have more than five vehicles registered in his/her name/business.

If you have a vehicle that has suffered from repeated safety problems, we invite you to call our law offices for a free case review and consultation.
