The unfortunate thing about the lemon law’ is that not only is it not applicable to all fifty states, but it is often interpreted differently in each one.
For example, in some states used cars are not included. In others motor homes and motor bikes have differing criteria.
The motor part of the mobile home may be covered whereas the living area would not be.
Similarly, some leased vehicles would be covered in some states but vehicles used for business would not be.
Briefly, these laws can be confusing. It truly is a case of not knowing how or if you are covered unless you look up the specific laws for your own state.
But it is not only the lemon laws that protect you. If you have a written warranty you could be covered by several other laws to enable you to get compensation or the car repaired not at your cost.
In all, about 25,000 cars are bought back by manufacturers each year in the United States. Considering how many cars are sold annually this is not such a great number.
But if you are unlucky enough to be one of the 25,000 then you will obviously want to do something about it.
