Default What you need to know about Lemon Laws

I am posting this information for all of us that are having vibration problems and other problems that we seem to have repeatedly. Most states have ways to deal with your dealer over these issues. One, a new truck or secondly, your money back and attorney fees paid by the dealer if it comes to that.

Here is a link on all state laws and how to start the Lemon Law process.

I for one have a vibration problem and am going to present my dealer with the information that applies to my state just so they know I am not a stupid consumer who is going to allow them to roll over me.

Aforementioned link is: http://www.lemonlaw.bbb.org/

In brief the BBB has this informtion of there home page but use the link above to access it due to some of the addtional links below not working on this post.

If enough of us raise hell the corporate office will take action and get these dealers in line. Trust me I know how to put the preasure on.

Lemon Law
Every state, along with the District of Columbia, has a lemon law. Lemon laws establish a standard for when vehicles should be repurchased or replaced by the manufacturer. The lemon laws contain eligibility requirements, notice requirements, and also set out specific remedies that a consumer may recover in a legal action against the manufacturer if a vehicle cannot be fixed to conform to the warranty after a reasonable number of repair attempts. It is important for you to know your rights and resonsibilities.
Please select a state or territory for more information on about your lemon law

Select state from list Alaska Alabama Arkansas Arizona California Colorado Connecticut District Of Columbia Delaware Florida Georgia Hawaii Iowa Idaho Illinois Indiana Kansas Kentucky Louisiana Massachusetts Maryland Maine Michigan Minnesota Missouri Mississippi Montana North Carolina North Dakota Nebraska New Hampshire New Jersey New Mexico Nevada New York Ohio Oklahoma Oregon Pennsylvania Puerto Rico Rhode Island South Carolina South Dakota Tennessee Texas Utah Virginia Virgin Islands Vermont Washington Wisconsin West Virginia Wyoming

Step to solve your lemon law/warranty dispute?
Contact your Dealer Service Manager. In many instances the dealer may be able to resolve your concern directly. Make sure to keep copies (or obtain copies) of all work orders and other documents related to the service of your vehicle.

Most automobile companies have customer service staff available to assist a buyer who has a warranty-related problem. If your dealer has not been able to resolve your dispute, talking directly to the warrantor is a good next step.
