When you buy a car, you never think it is going to be a lemon. However, sometimes you face a lot of problems after your purchase.
A lot of used car owners or people who are planning to buy a used car are asking whether the California Lemon Law can help them protect their rights or not in case the vehicle turns out to be defective.
The California Lemon Law provisions apply to new vehicles. However used cars that are under express written warranty can qualify as well. Therefore some general rules may apply to motorcycles, motor homes, used vehicles sold under the dealer’s express written warranty, “lemon” vehicles repurchased by the manufacturer and sold to consumers, and vehicles sold with a service contract.
According to California law, the first time that a lemon vehicle is resold, it must have a one-year factory warranty. The law requires as well that the car has a “lemon law buyback” title and a “lemon” sticker on the door jamb. The cars cannot be sold “as is”. In case you were sold a lemon illegally “as is”, you still have rights under the California Lemon Law.
The law covers cars that were purchased for personal, family or household but not commercial use.
