California’s
Lemon Law was recently revised, adding valuable new protection for
consumers of new vehicles purchased or leased after January 1,
2001. Under this new revision, if a vehicle is repaired two
times for a defect that is likely to result in serious bodily injury
or death, the vehicle is “presumed” to be a lemon.
This
is great news for consumers with problems such as vehicle stalling,
brake failure, steering problems, and other obvious safety related
issues.
In
addition, the new revision states that vehicles used primarily for
business purposes are also entitled to Lemon Law protection, as long
as the registered owner of the vehicle does not have more than five
vehicles registered in his/her name/business.
