Pennsylvania Lemon Law protects Reading residents who purchased or leased defective vehicles that can’t be fixed despite multiple repair attempts.
If your car’s defect affects its safety, value, or reliability, the manufacturer may be obligated to buy back, replace, or compensate you. How Reading Lemon Law Works
The Reading Lemon Law ensures that car owners aren’t stuck with vehicles that spend more time in the repair shop than on the road. If your car has repeated mechanical or electrical issues under warranty, you could receive:
- A refund of your purchase price
- A replacement vehicle of equal value
- A cash settlement for inconvenience and repair delays
- Free legal representation, since the manufacturer covers attorney fees
You never pay anything unless we win your case.
Vehicles Covered Under Reading Lemon Law
Under Pennsylvania Lemon Law, the following vehicles are covered:
- New passenger cars, SUVs, and trucks under factory warranty
- Leased vehicles still covered by manufacturer warranty
- Personal-use vehicles primarily used by individuals or families
- Defects reported within the first 12 months or 12,000 miles
Not covered: motorcycles, RVs, or vehicles sold “as is.”
Do You Qualify for a Reading Lemon Law Claim?
You may be eligible if:
- The issue affects your vehicle’s use, safety, or market value
- The manufacturer or dealer has made 3 or more unsuccessful repair attempts
- Your vehicle has been out of service for 30 or more days due to repairs
- The defect appeared during the warranty period
- The claim is filed within Pennsylvania’s required timeframe
Keep all repair orders and communication records — they are crucial evidence for your claim.
