2. Legal remedies
A. Lemon Law Most states have lemon laws providing that a vehicle is presumed defective and qualifying upon a certain number of repairs or days out of service.
B. Magnuson-Moss Act This federal law sets forth certain requirements for warranties and provides for recovery of legal fees to a prevailing consumer under certain circumstances.
C. Breach of express warranty Even if a vehicle does not qualify for lemon law, other remedies are possible. If the manufacturer fails to repair the vehicle after a reasonable number of attempts, a claim can be filed.
D. Breach of Implied Warranty Your vehicle should meet certain expectations of quality and performance, and if it doesn't, you may have a case under such a claim.
E. Deceptive Practices Misleading or deceptive actions by the manufacturer or dealer could entitle you to compensation under deceptive practices laws.
