San Antonio Lemon Law Attorneys Helping Drivers Resolve Defective Vehicle Problems

The San Antonio Lemon Law offers consumer protection to those who buy or lease new vehicles that fail to perform as promised. If your vehicle spends too much time in the shop or keeps having the same issue, you may be entitled to:

• A replacement vehicle of comparable value
• A complete refund, including taxes, title, and registration fees
• A cash settlement for reduced value or repair inconvenience
• Attorney’s fees paid by the manufacturer upon a successful claim

You pay nothing out of pocket — the manufacturer covers all legal costs when you win.

San Antonio Lemon Law applies to:

• New and leased vehicles purchased or registered in Texas
• Cars, trucks, SUVs, and vans used primarily for personal or household purposes
• Claims made within 24 months or 24,000 miles, whichever comes first
• Vehicles with 4 or more failed repair attempts or 30+ days out of service
• Certain small business vehicles that meet Texas Lemon Law standards

Not Covered: Used “as-is” vehicles, off-road or racing vehicles, and those heavily modified after purchase.

You may qualify if:

• The defect affects your car’s use, safety, or resale value
• The manufacturer or dealer has made 4 or more repair attempts for the same issue
• The vehicle has been out of service for 30 or more cumulative days
• The issue occurred during the warranty period or within 24 months/24,000 miles

Our San Antonio legal team will review your vehicle’s repair records — free of charge — to determine eligibility.

Common issues that may qualify under Texas Lemon Law include:

• Engine failure, stalling, or rough idling
• Transmission slipping or hesitation
• Steering or brake system malfunctions
• Electrical failures or dashboard warning light errors
• Air conditioning or heating that doesn’t work properly
• Persistent leaks, vibrations, or unusual noises

If these problems continue despite repeated repairs, your vehicle may qualify as a “lemon” under Texas law.

Texas Lemon Law primarily applies to new vehicles, but used car buyers may still be protected under the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act or dealer warranties if:

• The used car came with a written warranty or service contract
• The dealer failed to fix the defect within a reasonable time
• The issue appeared during the warranty period
