Georgia’s Lemon Law gives you the power to fight back when your new vehicle just won’t cooperate — and the warranty repairs don’t work.
The law requires manufacturers to replace or repurchase the defective vehicle, or provide financial compensation. In some cases, they could be required to pay penalties too. Understanding Georgia’s Lemon Law
Georgia’s Lemon Law ensures that consumers aren’t stuck with defective vehicles that can’t be fixed. If your new or leased vehicle keeps having issues that affect its safety, use, or value, you may be entitled to:
- A replacement vehicle of equal value
- A full refund of your vehicle purchase price, including taxes and fees
- A cash settlement to compensate for diminished value
- Legal fees covered by the manufacturer if you win
No upfront costs — just the help you need.
What Vehicles Are Covered?
To qualify for Georgia Lemon Law, the defect must:
- Be substantial, affecting the vehicle’s safety, value, or use.
- Be reported during the Lemon Law rights period — two years from delivery or the first 24,000 miles, whichever comes first.
- Remain unresolved after a reasonable number of repair attempts: one attempt for a defect that is life-threatening or likely to cause injury, three attempts for other defects, or a cumulative 30 days out of service.
- Arbitration must be requested within one year after the Lemon Law rights period expires.
How Do I Qualify for a Georgia Lemon Law Claim?
To qualify for a lemon law case:
- The defect affects safety, use, or value
- The dealer or manufacturer has made 2 or more repair attempt
- Your vehicle has been out of service for 30+ days
- Filing deadlines are set by state law and are often much shorter than people expect — some states require action within months, not years. Contact us for a free review of the deadline that applies to your vehicle.
- Be reported 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.

Georgia Lemon Law and Used Cars
Georgia Lemon Law typically does not cover used vehicles unless:
- The vehicle is still under the original manufacturer’s warranty
- 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 a chance to repair the issue and failed
