Trenton Lemon Law Attorneys Standing Up for Vehicle Owners

The Trenton Lemon Law was created to help consumers who unknowingly end up with unreliable vehicles. If your car, truck, or SUV continues to break down despite multiple repair attempts, you may qualify for:

• A replacement vehicle at no extra cost
• A full or partial refund of what you paid
• A cash settlement for loss of value
• Legal fees paid by the manufacturer if your case is successful

Our services cost you nothing — the manufacturer is responsible for legal fees.

The Trenton Lemon Law generally applies to:

• New cars, trucks, SUVs, vans, and certain motorcycles
• Leased vehicles with active manufacturer warranties
• 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.
• 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.
• Certain small-business vehicles

Not included: off-road vehicles, commercial fleets, or vehicles sold “as-is” without warranty.

You may qualify for a Trenton Lemon Law claim if:

• The defect reduces safety, usability, or value
• The manufacturer or dealer has made 2 or more failed repair attempts
• The vehicle has been out of service for 30 days or more
• The defect was first reported within 18 months/18,000 miles
• 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.

Keep your repair orders — they are the key to proving your claim.

Recurring issues that may qualify include:

• Engine misfires, power loss, or overheating
• Defective brakes or long stopping distances
• Transmission slipping, hard shifting, or failure
• Electrical problems like faulty sensors or warning lights
• Heater or AC failures (important for New Jersey winters!)
• Fuel, coolant, or oil leaks

If these problems keep coming back, your vehicle may be a lemon under New Jersey law.

The Trenton Lemon Law may also cover used cars if:

• They are still under the original manufacturer’s warranty
• The defect appeared within the 18 months/18,000-mile window
• The manufacturer had a reasonable chance to fix the problem

A quick case review will confirm if your used car qualifies.
