Gaithersburg Lemon Law Attorneys Helping Drivers Get Justice for Defective Vehicles

The Gaithersburg Lemon Law exists to protect consumers from being trapped with defective cars. If your vehicle continues to malfunction under warranty, you may be eligible for:

• A complete refund of your vehicle purchase
• A replacement vehicle from the manufacturer
• A cash settlement for ongoing issues
• No legal fees, since the manufacturer pays your attorney costs

You pay nothing unless we win your case.

Under Maryland Lemon Law, the following vehicles qualify:

• New cars, trucks, SUVs, and vans under warranty
• Leased vehicles covered by the manufacturer’s warranty
• Vehicles used primarily for personal or household purposes
• Defects occurring within the first 12 months or 18,000 miles

Not covered: used vehicles sold “as is,” RVs, or motorcycles.

You may qualify if:

• The defect impacts your car’s safety, performance, or value
• The dealer made 3 or more failed repairs for the same issue
• Your car was out of service for 30 or more days
• The issue occurred while the vehicle was still under warranty
• You filed your claim within Maryland’s legal timeframe

Keep records of all repair orders, invoices, and service visits — they’re crucial evidence for your claim.

Gaithersburg drivers frequently report these issues under Maryland Lemon Law:

• Transmission or engine failures
• Electrical or wiring problems
• Faulty air conditioning or heating systems
• Brake or steering malfunctions
• Persistent dashboard lights or warning codes
• Suspension and alignment defects
• Water leaks, rattles, or vibration issues

If your dealer can’t fix these problems after several attempts, your car may qualify as a lemon.

While Maryland Lemon Law primarily covers new vehicles, certain used cars can qualify if:

• The defect appeared within 12 months or 18,000 miles
• The manufacturer’s original warranty is still active
• The dealer or manufacturer had multiple chances to repair it
