Yorba Linda, CA
Yorba Linda is one of the wealthiest communities not only in Orange County, California, but indeed, in the entire country. Yet even here, residents face the risk of purchasing a defective vehicle that cannot be repaired. These flawed automobiles, known colloquially as “lemons,” can pose serious safety risks in addition to being worth far less than you paid for them. If you reside in Yorba Linda and recently purchased a new or used vehicle that is not working as it should, you may have a lemon on your hands.

Navigating the process is made far easier with help from a Yorba Linda lemon law lawyer.

Yorba Linda Lemon Law Claims in a Nutshell
How Lemon Law Claims Work
A lemon law claim begins when a vehicle you purchase has a defect that is covered by its manufacturer’s warranty but that the manufacturer cannot fix. Once the manufacturer has been given a reasonable amount of time to try to fix the flaw, you can ask the manufacturer to replace the vehicle, refund your money, or offer better usage deductions. There are time limitations to filing a claim, however, and you must make a formal demand of the manufacturer before suing to enforce your rights.
It is important that consumers in Yorba Linda recognize their rights when a vehicle they purchase turns out to be defective.
FAQs
California’s lemon law is meant to protect consumers, but its provisions and application can be confusing nonetheless. Some common questions that Neale & Fhima APC clients frequently ask regarding lemon laws include the following:
What exactly is a “lemon?”
A “lemon” refers to any car, truck, van, RV, motor home, or motorcycle with a substantial defect that impairs its use, value, or safety (and that its manufacturer’s warranty covers). Covered vehicles become “lemons” when their manufacturers are unable to fix such defects despite being given a reasonable opportunity to do so.
Does California’s lemon law cover used vehicles?
Used vehicles are covered under the state’s lemon law so long as they are still under the manufacturer’s warranty.
How many times do I have to take my vehicle in to be repaired before it is considered a “lemon”?
There is no set number of times that a manufacturer is given to attempt to repair a defective vehicle. Still, depending on the type of defect, anywhere between two to four unsuccessful repair attempts will cause your vehicle to be considered a lemon.
Do I get to choose what remedy I want?
If your vehicle is a lemon, you get to tell the manufacturer whether you want your money refunded, a replacement vehicle, or more favorable usage deductions. You can also ask the manufacturer to pay you the difference between the lemon car’s actual worth and the value of a similar vehicle without the defect.
