Welcome to LemonLaw.org - National Lemon Law Resource and Information website.
Lemon laws are American state laws that provide a remedy for purchasers of cars in order to compensate for cars that repeatedly fail to meet standards of quality and performance. These vehicles are called lemons. The federal lemon law (the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act) protects citizens of all states. The rights afforded to consumers by lemon laws may exceed the warranties expressed in purchase contracts. Lemon law is the common nickname for these laws, but each state has different names for the laws and acts.

THE LEMON LAW PROBLEM IS DEFECTIVE VEHICLES
It has been estimated that in the U.S. auto makers buy back more than 100,000 cars, trucks and suv's every single year - and that's not counting motorcycles, RV's, and mobile homes. These are "lemons" - vehicles with some sort of manufacturing defect that cannot be fixed by the dealer.
The National Association of Consumer Agency Administrators and the Consumer Federation of America report that consumer complaints related to used car sales rank first, auto repair complaints rank third, and complaints related to new car sales rank fourth. In other words three of the top four consumer complaints, and consumer fraud complaints, involve cars.
Most states now have consumer protection laws, "lemon laws," pertaining to the purchase or lease of new vehicles, and under certain circumstances used vehicles. These laws state that if your situation qualifies the manufacturer must make good on any vehicle which qualifies as a "lemon" which was purchased or leased for personal use, or most business uses.
