Lemon Law
Calif. Auto Defect Law Incentivizes Overlitigation
Law 360 - April 7, 2020
California’s so-called lemon law, made up of the Song-Beverly
Consumer Warranty Act and the Tanner Consumer Protection Act, was
meant to help consumers obtain quick resolution for serious
vehicle defects. Under the law, if a vehicle is not repaired
after a reasonable number of attempts, the consumer is entitled
to a prompt replacement or refund of the purchase price.
