New Haven Lemon Law Lawyers Who Make Sure You Don’t Get Stuck With a Defective Car

The New Haven Lemon Law is designed to protect drivers from cars, trucks, or motorcycles that can’t be fixed after repeated repairs. If your vehicle is defective, you could be entitled to:

• A replacement vehicle of equal value
• A refund of your purchase price, including taxes and registration fees
• A cash payout for the reduced value of your vehicle
• All legal fees covered by the manufacturer if you win your case

No upfront charges — just results.

Under New Haven Lemon Law, the following are typically covered:

• New cars purchased or leased for personal use
• Passenger cars, trucks, SUVs, vans, and motorcycles
• Filing deadlines are set by state law and are often much shorter than people expect — some states require action within months, not years. Ask us for a free review of the deadline that applies to your vehicle.
• Report the defect while the vehicle is still covered by the manufacturer’s warranty or within your state’s lemon-law rights period — these periods vary by state and can be as short as one year.
• Certain small business vehicles.

Exclusions: Used cars with no warranty, heavily modified vehicles, and commercial-use vehicles.

You may qualify for a New Haven Lemon Law claim if:

• The defect impacts safety, use, or resale value
• The dealer or manufacturer made multiple repair attempts without fixing the issue
• The car was unusable for 30 or more days due to repairs
• Filing deadlines are set by state law and are often much shorter than people expect — some states require action within months, not years. Ask us for a free review of the deadline that applies to your vehicle.
• Report the defect while the vehicle is still covered by the manufacturer’s warranty or within your state’s lemon-law rights period — these periods vary by state and can be as short as one year.

• The manufacturer had the chance to repair the issue but failed
