The Lemon Law deals with new cars that have been built with manufacturer’s defects. It is very complicated to have a vehicle qualify for the manufacturer to buy it back. It general it deals with how many days it is out of service because of defects being repaired. If you just purchased a new car, there is probably a Lemon Law book in the glove box. If you have a used car, look in the glove box and the original owner probably left the Lemon Law booklet in there.

A vehicle that continues to have a defect that substantially impairs its use, value, or safety. Generally, if the car has been repaired 4 or more times for the same Defect within the Warranty Period and the Defect has not been fixed, the car qualifies as a Lemon. All States differ so you should consult the Lemon Law Summary and the State Statutes for your particular State. Note that the warranty period may or may not coincide with the Manufacturer’s Warrant.
