Nevada Lemon Law protects drivers who buy or lease new vehicles that turn out to be defective and can’t be fixed under the manufacturer’s warranty.
If your vehicle qualifies, the manufacturer must offer a replacement, a full refund, or a cash settlement — and in some cases, you may be entitled to extra compensation for the inconvenience. Nevada Lemon Law: What It Can Do For You
The Nevada Lemon Law offers consumers protection when their new vehicle repeatedly fails to meet expectations. If you’ve tried to get your car repaired multiple times and it’s still defective, you could be entitled to:
- A replacement vehicle of equal value
- A full buyback, including taxes, registration, and loan payments
- A cash settlemen t for inconvenience and loss of vehicle value
- Legal fees covered by the manufacturer — not you
We’ll guide you through the entire process, with no upfront fees to you.
What Vehicles Are Covered by Nevada Lemon Law?
Nevada Lemon Law applies to:
- New vehicles purchased or leased in Nevada
- Cars, trucks, SUVs, motorcycles, vans, and some recreational vehicles
- Vehicles still under manufacturer’s warranty
Not covered: Used vehicles without warranty, commercial vehicles, or defects caused by abuse or accidents.
Am I Eligible Under Nevada Lemon Law?
To qualify for Nevada Lemon Law, the defect must:
- Substantially impair the vehicle’s use and value, and be reported during the express warranty term or 1 year from original delivery, whichever comes first.
- Survive a reasonable number of repair attempts. Nevada presumes that standard is met when the same defect has been repaired 4 or more times, or the vehicle has been out of service 30 or more cumulative days — both within that same warranty term or first year (Nev. Rev. Stat. § 597.630(2)).
- A lawsuit must be filed within 18 months of the original delivery date (§ 597.650).
Common Defects Under Nevada Lemon Law
Typical issues that qualify under Nevada Lemon Law include:
- Transmission issues (slipping, jerking, or delayed shifting)
- Brake malfunctions or steering problems
- Fluid leaks or engine overheating
- Electrical problems (warning lights, battery issues, or dashboard failures)
- AC or heater system malfunctions
- Dead battery or alternator issues
- And more…
If your vehicle has had multiple repairs for any of these issues, you may have a lemon.
Nevada Lemon Law and Used Cars
Nevada Lemon Law generally does not cover used vehicles, but some certified pre-owned cars may qualify under the manufacturer’s original warranty. To qualify:
- The used car must still be under the original warranty
- The issue must occur within 18 months or 18,000 miles
- There must have been attempts to fix the problem
