Recycled Lemons

The California lemon law has certain requirements to prevent lemon laundering or recycling of lemon vehicles. According to the California law, the manufacturer must:

  • Tell the buyer that the vehicle was repurcased due to the lemon law;

  • Put a "lemon law buyback" decal on the lemon vehicle; Brand the title with the words "lemon law buyback";

  • Have the new buyer sign a disclosure form showing that the consumer was informed that the vehicle was a lemon law buyback;and

  • Provide a one-year warranty for the defects that caused the manufacturer to buy back the lemon vehicle in the first place.
