Does My 2018 to 2022 Acura ILX Qualify as a Lemon?
This is one of the most important questions that a consumer should ask when considering the options available to them if their vehicle is defective. The fact is that not all vehicles will qualify as a lemon under the lemon law. For vehicles to meet the definition of a lemon and for consumers to have the right to file claims, the vehicles must meet the following conditions:
- The vehicle must have a defect that affects use, safety, or value
- The vehicle must have been subject to a reasonable number of repairs
- The vehicle’s issues must have started when the vehicle was still under active warranty (or the vehicle must still be under warranty)
If your Acura ILX meets the definition of a lemon under the lemon law, then you could pursue a lemon law claim. For more information about these conditions and your right to pursue an Acura ILX power window failure lemon law lawsuit, contact our team today.
The Defects Present in the Acura ILX
The ILX has a power window failure that specifically affects the window regulator/motor, which result in windows getting stuck or operating slowly. In addition to windows that operate slowly, other signs of the defect can include grinding noises, clicking noises, jerky movement, window sliding down on its own, burning smell, windows getting stuck, or windows falling completely into the door. This can be caused by a failing motor, worn regulator cables, a damaged regulator mechanism, and more.
If your vehicle is showing signs of power window failure and repair attempts have been unable to address the issue, then your vehicle may be a lemon.
Can I File a Lemon Law Claim?
Yes, you could have the right to file a claim. As mentioned above, to be eligible to file your claim, your vehicle must meet all the conditions as established under the lemon law.

So, how long do consumers have to file their lemon law claims? Currently, claims can be subject to one of two deadlines; this is based on a recent update to the lemon law.
