Minnesota Lemon Law ensures that consumers who purchase or lease vehicles with defects that are not fixed after a reasonable number of attempts are entitled to compensation. This compensation may include:

• Replacement: A comparable vehicle of the same make and model.
• Repurchase: A full refund, including taxes and fees, minus a mileage offset.
• Cash Settlement: Compensation for the decreased value or damages, with possible civil penalties up to triple the original amount.

Minnesota Lemon Law also requires manufacturers to cover attorney fees, ensuring consumers can pursue their claims without additional financial stress.

Minnesota Lemon Law applies to:

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

Exclusions include minor defects, misuse, or unauthorized modifications.

To qualify for Minnesota Lemon Law, the defect must:

• Be reported during the express warranty term or 2 years from original delivery, whichever comes first (Minn. Stat. § 325F.665, subd. 2).
• Survive a reasonable number of repair attempts. Minnesota presumes that standard is met when the same defect has been repaired 4 or more times, or the vehicle has been out of service 30 or more business days — both within that same 2-year window (subd. 3(b)). A defect causing complete brake or steering failure needs only 1 repair attempt to trigger the presumption (subd. 3(c)).
• A lawsuit must be filed within 3 years of original delivery, extended to 6 months past an informal dispute decision if you pursued that route first (subd. 10).

Minnesota Lemon Law covers defects that interfere with the operation or safety of the vehicle, such as:

• Engine failure
• Squealing brakes
• Coolant leaks
• Window leaks
• Electrical failure
• Transmission issues

These defects must persist after a reasonable number of repair attempts and be covered by the manufacturer’s warranty.

Minnesota Lemon Law applies to used vehicles under specific conditions:

• The defect must still be covered by the original manufacturer’s warranty.
• It must affect the vehicle’s safety, value, or use.
• The defect must remain unresolved after a reasonable number of repair attempts.
