YES, manufacturers only issue recalls as a remedy to widespread defects. If they fail to repair the recalled defect after a reasonable number of attempts, you may pursue be entitled to compensation, assuming your vehicle was within Georgia’s Lemon Law Rights Period or covered by a warranty when the recall was issued.
That said, manufacturers rarely issue recalls before they have a tested solution to the problem. So, while recalls are covered under the Georgia Lemon Law, failed repair attempts for recalls are very uncommon.
But remember, Georgia classifies vehicles as lemons if they’ve been out of service for repairs for a total of 30 days. Any time spent repairing recalls counts toward this total. And if that repair time pushes your vehicle past the 30-day threshold, you should qualify for compensation.
