Kansas City Lemon Law Attorneys Helping Drivers with Defective Vehicles

The Kansas City Lemon Law gives car owners and lessees powerful protection when their new vehicle doesn’t perform as promised. If your car continues to have defects affecting safety, use, or value, you may qualify for:

• A replacement vehicle of equal value
• A full refund, including registration, taxes, and title fees
• A financial settlement for reduced vehicle value
• Attorney’s fees paid by the manufacturer if your claim succeeds

No upfront or out-of-pocket expenses for you.

Kansas City Lemon Law applies to:

• New or leased passenger vehicles purchased or registered in Kansas
• Cars, trucks, SUVs, and vans for personal or household use
• Claims made within 1 year of delivery or before the manufacturer’s warranty expires
• Vehicles with 4 or more unsuccessful repair attempts or 30+ cumulative days in the shop
• Certain small business vehicles that meet Kansas ’s legal criteria

Not Covered: Used “as-is” vehicles, off-road vehicles, or those substantially altered after purchase.

You may qualify if:

• The defect affects your car’s safety, performance, or resale value
• The dealer or manufacturer made 4 or more repair attempts for the same issue
• The car was out of service for 30 or more total days
• The issue was reported within 1 year of delivery or while under warranty

If you’re unsure, our attorneys can review your repair records for free.

Recurring issues that often qualify include:

• Engine stalling, overheating, or rough idling
• Transmission slipping or shifting problems
• Steering or brake system failures
• Electrical malfunctions (battery, sensors, dashboard lights)
• HVAC system problems (heating or A/C not working properly)
• Persistent leaks (oil, coolant, or transmission fluid)

If your vehicle has any of these ongoing problems, it may qualify as a lemon under Kansas law.

While Kansas Lemon Law primarily protects new vehicles, some used cars may also qualify if:

• The defect appeared while the original manufacturer’s warranty was still active
• The issue occurred within 1 year of delivery
• The manufacturer was given a fair chance to fix it but failed
