About the California Lemon Law
The California Lemon Law refers to the Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act. The law applies to multiple products, including vehicles. Under the California lemon law, consumers who either purchase or lease a vehicle that turns out to be defective are protected and may have the right to file a claim. The lemon law required that auto manufacturers honor their warranties, provide repairs, and either replace the vehicle or issue a refund if they cannot repair the product. For vehicles to be considered lemons and for consumers to be eligible to pursue a claim, certain conditions must be met.

- Have a defect that affects value, use, or safety of the vehicle
- Have a defect that started when the vehicle was still under an active warranty
- Have been subjected to a reasonable number of repairs (this number will vary based on the severity of the defect)
If all requirements are met, then the vehicle will likely qualify as a lemon under the law, meaning that consumers could have the right to file a lawsuit and receive compensation. For mor information, contact our firm.

What Is The Time Limit For Bringing A Lawsuit For A Lemon Law Vehicle?
The time limit to file a lemon lawsuit or claim has two different targets, with the earliest date of the two applying. The first one establishes a one year time limit from the expiration of your factory warranty. The second one sets the date as 6 years from the date you took delivery of your vehicle from the dealer.
How Long Do I have to File a Lemon Law Claim?
Every claim, including lemon law claims, are subject to a deadline called a “statute of limitations.” The statute of limitations determines the total length of time that claimants have to file their claims. If claimants do not file their claims on time, consumers could lose their right to pursue their claims. So, how much time do you have to file a lemon law claim?
Under the lemon law, claims may be subject to one of two deadlines, since the law has recently been updated. Under the original filing period, consumers had up to four years to file their claims, although claims had to be filed while the manufacturer warranty was still active. The recent update to the law gives more time for consumers to file their claims. More specifically, consumers will have up to one year from the expiration of the manufacturer’s warranty to file their claims; this must be no longer than six years from the original delivery date of the vehicle (which can be different than the purchase date of the vehicle). Since this is a recent update to the statute of limitations, it is important that you seek legal help as soon as possible to understand exactly how long you have to file your claim.
