San Jose Lemon Law Attorneys Who Won’t Let You Drive a Defective Vehicle

San Jose Lemon Law was created to protect consumers from faulty cars that can’t be fixed. If your new or leased vehicle continues to have issues affecting safety, reliability, or value, you may be entitled to:

• A replacement vehicle of equal value
• A full refund of your vehicle purchase price, including taxes and fees
• A cash settlement for reduced resale value
• Legal costs covered by the manufacturer if you prevail

No out-of-pocket fees — just straightforward support.

San Jose Lemon Law covers:

• Newly purchased or leased personal vehicles
• Passenger cars, trucks, SUVs, vans, and motorcycles
• Filing deadlines are set by state law and are often much shorter than people expect — some states require action within months, not years. Ask us for a free review of the deadline that applies to your vehicle.
• Report the defect while the vehicle is still covered by the manufacturer’s warranty or within your state’s lemon-law rights period — these periods vary by state and can be as short as one year.
• Some business-use vehicles

Not Covered: Used cars without warranty, commercial vehicles, or vehicles modified after purchase.

You may qualify under San Jose Lemon Law if:

• The defect impacts the vehicle’s safety, value, or usability
• The dealer or manufacturer has attempted to repair the problem at least twice
• Your vehicle has been out of service for 30+ days
• Filing deadlines are set by state law and are often much shorter than people expect — some states require action within months, not years. Ask us for a free review of the deadline that applies to your vehicle.
• Report the defect while the vehicle is still covered by the manufacturer’s warranty or within your state’s lemon-law rights period — these periods vary by state and can be as short as one year.

Typical issues that may qualify under San Jose Lemon Law include:

• Engine stalling, shaking, or loss of power
• Brake problems or safety system malfunctions
• Electrical failures (wiring, dashboard warnings, lights)

If these problems keep coming back, you could have a lemon.

San Jose Lemon Law usually excludes used cars, unless:

• The vehicle is still covered by the original manufacturer’s warranty
• Filing deadlines are set by state law and are often much shorter than people expect — some states require action within months, not years. Ask us for a free review of the deadline that applies to your vehicle.
• The manufacturer had a chance to fix the problem but didn’t succeed
