Orlando Lemon Law makes sure drivers aren’t left with cars that can’t be fixed under warranty.
Florida law requires manufacturers to repurchase, replace, or repair defective vehicles — and in many cases, provide compensation if they fail to do so. Understanding Orlando Lemon Law
The Orlando Lemon Law was created to protect consumers from cars that just don’t work as promised. If your new or leased vehicle has ongoing defects that reduce its safety, usability, or resale value, you may be eligible for:
- A replacement vehicle of equal value
- A complete refund of your purchase price, including taxes and fees
- A financial settlement for lost value
- Attorney’s fees covered by the manufacturer if your case is successful
No upfront costs. No hidden charges.
What Vehicles Are Covered?
Orlando Lemon Law protections apply to:
- Newly purchased or leased passenger vehicles
- Cars, trucks, SUVs, vans, and motorcycles
- Claims made within 24 months of delivery (per Florida statute)
- Vehicles with 3+ failed repair attempts or more than 15 days in the shop
- Certain small business vehicles under 10,000 lbs.
Not Covered: Used cars sold “as-is,” off-road vehicles, or modified vehicles.
Do I Qualify for an Orlando Lemon Law Claim?
You may qualify if:
- The defect impacts your vehicle’s safety, use, or value
- The dealer or manufacturer has tried to fix the issue at least 3 times
- Your car has been out of service for 15 or more days
- The problem was reported within Florida’s 24-month Lemon Law rights period

Common Defects Under Orlando Lemon Law
Some recurring problems that often qualify include:
- Engine stalling, overheating, or power loss
- Brake failures or steering problems
- Electrical malfunctions (dashboard lights, wiring, battery drain)
- Heating and air conditioning breakdowns
- Oil, fuel, or coolant leaks
- Transmission slipping, hard shifting, or delays
If these issues keep coming back, your car may legally be considered a lemon
Orlando Lemon Law and Used Cars
Florida Lemon Law mainly applies to new vehicles, but some used cars may qualify if:
- The original manufacturer’s warranty is still active
- The defect was reported within 24 months of delivery
- The manufacturer had a chance to repair the issue but did not succeed
Check your used vehicle’s eligibility — it only takes a few minutes.
