Common Defects and Malfunctions in Lemons
A defect may be considered any type of fault with the design or manufacturing (or even marketing or sale) of a vehicle, which negatively impacts its safety, function, or value. Some defects can lead to serious accidents, and others can affect the crash-worthiness of a vehicle and how well its occupants are protected in the event of a collision. If any defect is present, it can have serious consequences.
Your car may be a lemon under California lemon law if it has any of the following defects:
- Unintentional acceleration
- Brake failure
- Airbag and seatbelt malfunction
- Steering system failure
- Air conditioner malfunction
- Stalling
- Engine fire and failure
- Automatic transmission failure
- Fuel line defects
- Fuel injection defects
- Electrical problems
- Cruise control malfunction
If your vehicle has a defect and you have tried to have it repaired multiple times to no avail, you may have a lemon on your hands. It takes a skilled attorney who has the work ethic and ability to help you get fair compensation for your losses.
