A “lemon” is a new vehicle that is found to have significant manufacturer errors that cause damages to the driver while still under warranty. These defects either cannot be repaired, or took an excessive amount of repairs to resolve.

What Vehicles Can Be Considered a Lemon?

In other words, a lemon is a brand new vehicle that was defective since the day you bought it. The following can be considered lemons:

  • Automobiles
  • Trucks
  • Mini-vans
  • Vans
  • Motorcycles
    Scooters
  • And some other vehicles

We will help you determine whether your vehicle counts as a “lemon” and what the next steps will be for filing a claim. There are some federal laws and rules that will apply everywhere in the United States, but each individual state has its own specific rules about what constitutes a lemon vehicle and how claims should be filed.

The National Lemon Law Center can help you navigate your state’s particular requirements.
