Get the Best Maine Lemon Law Attorney to Defend Your Rights!

If your vehicle has a defect that affects its safety, value, or use, and it cannot be repaired after multiple attempts, Maine Lemon Law guarantees your right to:

• Replacement: A new vehicle of the same make and model.
• Repurchase: A full refund, including taxes and fees, minus a mileage deduction.
• Cash Settlement: Compensation for the defect’s impact on the vehicle’s value, with possible civil penalties up to three times the original amount.

Maine law also ensures that attorney fees are covered, allowing you to pursue your claim without additional financial burdens.

Maine Lemon Law applies to:

• New and certified pre-owned vehicles under the manufacturer’s warranty.
• Used vehicles that are sold with remaining factory warranties.
• Vehicles like cars, trucks, motorcycles, SUVs, RVs, and certain business vehicles (under 10,000 lbs).

Exclusions may apply for minor defects, issues caused by misuse, or unauthorized alterations.

To qualify for Maine Lemon Law, the defect must:

• Be reported within 3 years of original delivery, or 18,000 miles of operation, whichever comes first (10 M.R.S.A. § 1161) — a longer window than most states.
• Survive a reasonable number of repair attempts. Maine presumes that standard is met with 3 repair attempts, just 1 attempt for a serious braking or steering failure, or 15 or more business days out of service (§ 1163(3)).
• Written notice to the manufacturer is required, triggering a final 7-business-day opportunity to repair (§ 1163(6)).
• After arbitration, an appeal to Superior Court must be filed within 21 days of the decision (§ 1169(4)).

Maine Lemon Law covers a variety of defects that impact the vehicle’s functionality or safety, including:

• Engine failure
• Transmission issues
• Electrical system malfunctions
• Brake system failure
• Faulty airbags
• Steering or suspension defects

These defects must persist despite multiple repair attempts and should be covered by the vehicle’s warranty.

Maine Lemon Law applies to used vehicles under specific conditions:

• The defect must still be covered by the original manufacturer’s warranty.
• The defect must significantly impact the vehicle’s safety, value, or use.
• The defect must remain unresolved after reasonable repair attempts.
