Minnesota Lemon Law Attorneys Protecting Drivers from Defective Vehicles

The Minnesota Lemon Law was established to protect Minnesota vehicle owners from being stuck with cars that fail to meet normal standards of quality, performance, and safety. If your new or leased vehicle continues to have recurring issues, you may be entitled to:

• A replacement vehicle of similar value
• A full refund including purchase price, taxes, and registration
• A financial settlement for lost value
• Attorney’s fees covered by the manufacturer if your case succeeds

You pay nothing out of pocket for legal services.

Minnesota Lemon Law applies to:

• New and leased vehicles for personal or family use
• Cars, trucks, SUVs, vans, and motorcycles
• Claims filed within 2 years of delivery or during the manufacturer’s warranty period (Minnesota-specific rule)
• Vehicles with the same issue repaired 4 or more times, or out of service for 30+ cumulative days
• Some small business vehicles within Minnesota’s legal weight limits

Not Covered: As-is used cars, off-road vehicles, or vehicles significantly altered after purchase.

You might qualify if:

• The defect affects your car’s use, safety, or resale value
• The manufacturer or dealer attempted to fix the issue 4 or more times
• The vehicle was unavailable for 30+ days due to repairs
• The issue appeared within 2 years or during the manufacturer’s warranty

Common recurring problems that may qualify include:

• Engine stalling, failure, or overheating
• Transmission slipping, jerking, or hard shifting
• Brake or steering system issues
• Electrical malfunctions (dashboard, battery, wiring, lights)
• Heating or air conditioning not working
• Persistent leaks (oil, coolant, or fuel)

If these issues continue despite repeated repairs, your car may legally qualify as a lemon.

Minnesota Lemon Law primarily covers new vehicles, but certain used vehicles may qualify if:

• The manufacturer’s original warranty is still valid
• The problem appeared within 2 years or during warranty coverage
• The manufacturer had a reasonable chance to fix the issue but didn’t
