California's lemon law gives consumers the right to take legal action against dealers and manufacturers of defective vehicles, if they cannot repair a vehicle under the warranty after a reasonable number of repair attempts. The Lemon law covers cars, trucks, motorhomes, trailers, 5th wheels, boats, motorcycles, and all consumer goods.

The lemon law covers new and used vehicles sold with the balance of the new car warranty. Used vehicles are also covered by the lemon law if the manufacturer extended the original factory warranty (as in the case of most sales of certified used vehicles) or if the dealer provided the consumer a warranty.

The defect or malfunction must substantially affect the vehicle's use, value or safety. Minor defects are not covered.

If your vehicle qualifies as a lemon, you could be entitled to a new replacement vehicle, a full refund, or a partial refund of the money you have paid! In addition to replacing the vehicle or reimbursing you for the price you paid for the vehicle, you could also be reimbursed your license fees, tow fees, and other out-of-pocket repairs, interest on your loan, DMV fees, rental car fees, and other related expenses along with attorney's fees.
