Understanding Florida’s Lemon Law
The Florida Motor Vehicle Warranty Enforcement Act, also known as the Florida Lemon Law, covers problems and nonconformities with new and leased vehicles. These problems must affect the car’s use, safety, or value. The law ensures that consumers receive the protections they deserve.
The Florida Lemon Law says that manufacturers must fix these vehicle problems within the first 24 months of ownership. If they cannot fix the issues, they should offer a refund or a replacement. To qualify, you need to file a claim within 2 years and 60 days of your purchase or lease of the vehicle. Acting early leads to the best outcome.
How a Lemon Law Attorney Can Help
Navigating the complexities of state Lemon Laws can be overwhelming. Our Florida Lemon Law lawyers practicing in St. Petersburg take care of every step. We help you file your claim and negotiate with manufacturers. We understand the nuances of both state’s Lemon Law and federal Lemon Laws, ensuring your case is in expert hands.
With our help, you can:
- Enforce your vehicle warranty rights.
- Hold manufacturers accountable for not only violations of the lemon law, but also for breach of warranty.
- Pursue claims under the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act. The federal Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act provides even broader protections than the Florida Lemon Law. This law lets us file claims long after the Lemon Law Rights Period ends. This helps us address a manufacturer’s failure to fix any defect during the warranty period. Still, acting as soon as possible provides you with the best chance at securing compensation.
Does Your Vehicle Qualify?
The Lemon Law requires that the vehicle have a substantial defect that affects the use, value, or safety of the vehicle. This defect must persist after a final repair attempt by the manufacturer or authorized dealer. The qualifications for a Lemon Law claim vary by state, but the law covers new and leased vehicles in Florida.
You may have a valid Lemon Law claim if:
- Your vehicle has been out of service for 30 cumulative days
- The defect persists after three or more repair attempts
- The manufacturer fails to fix the issue after the final repair opportunity
Benefits of Filing a Lemon Law Claim
Krohn & Moss, Ltd. will work with you to obtain a settlement of your choice, which may be one of the following three outcomes:
- Repurchase: The manufacturer may buy back the defective vehicle and refund what you have paid towards the vehicle, including all finance interest charges and sales taxes, less a reasonable statutorily calculated offset for your use of the vehicle.
- Replacement Vehicle: The manufacturer may replace the vehicle with a comparable model valued up to 105 percent of the MSRP of your vehicle.
- Compensation: You may receive monetary compensation as an alternative to the manufacturer repurchasing or replacing your vehicle, in order to compensate you for how much you overpaid for your vehicle.
The Lemon Law aims to make sure that manufacturers keep their vehicle warranty promises. It also helps ensure that consumers get reliable vehicles.
