Is Your Car Covered by Lemon Law in Glendale?
Did you buy or lease your car in California? Was it under the original manufacturer warranty when the problem started? Has the same issue sent it back to the shop again and again? Let’s check the basics:
- Bought or leased in California?
- The problem began while the vehicle was under its original manufacturer warranty
- Back to an authorized dealer two or more times for the same issue?
- The car has spent a lot of time in the shop (roughly 30 days or more, total)?
- New or pre-owned: both can qualify, as long as there was factory warranty coverage.
- Own a small business, or drive rideshare? You may be covered, too.
Still not sure? Even if you’ve only had one or two repair visits, reach out. We look at your full situation, not one repair in isolation. Learn more about lemon law requirements & qualifications.
How Lemon Law Helps You in Glendale
Lemon law is on your side. If the manufacturer can’t fix a serious problem after a reasonable number of tries, the law says they owe you a remedy. California’s core statute is the Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act, which covers vehicles with defects that affect their use, value, or safety.
The defect has to arise while the original warranty is in effect, but it’s fine if that warranty later expires. What counts as a “reasonable” number of repair attempts depends on the defect, the safety risk, and your repair record.
The good news: if your claim succeeds, the manufacturer pays your attorney’s fees, not you. That’s what makes working with Barry Law Firm free to you. Learn more about attorney fees.
What Defects Count?
The list is practical. Do any of these sound familiar?
- Engine or transmission trouble: stalling, loss of power, or gear problems
- Electrical glitches, sensor failures, or a battery that drains fast
- Brakes that don’t respond right, lose power, or make the car hard to drive
- Steering problems: heavy turning or loose play in the wheel
- Battery or electric-vehicle system errors
- Infotainment that keeps shutting down or resetting
- Warning lights that stay on, or safety alerts that keep coming back

If You Win, What Could You Get?
- Buyback or return — the manufacturer takes back your car. Learn about California Lemon Law buybacks.
- Cash settlement — you keep the car and get paid for its lost value.
- Loan or lease payoff as part of a buyback.
- Reimbursement for extras like towing, rental cars, and other out-of-pocket costs.
- Attorney’s fees covered by the manufacturer, not by you.

Why Lemon Law Cases Feel Local
You’re in Glendale. You take your car to a trusted local dealer or service center, but the law protects you across all of California. Lemon law claims usually target the manufacturer, not just the dealer, and they’re sometimes handled in Los Angeles County courts. We focus on drivers from Glendale, Burbank, Pasadena, and the surrounding neighborhoods. You probably know Brand Boulevard, the 134, and the 2 freeway; that’s our home turf, too.
We work with drivers across Downtown Glendale, Adams Hill, Rossmoyne, Verdugo Woodlands, Chevy Chase Canyon, Glenoaks Canyon, Montrose, and Sparr Heights. We know the local streets and the local repair shops. The claim itself goes to the manufacturer, and we handle that part directly for you.

Your Questions, Answered
How much does a Glendale lemon law attorney cost? Nothing out of pocket. Manufacturers cover attorney’s fees when you win, so we review your case for free and never send you a bill.
How long will my case take? Some cases resolve in four to six months. If the manufacturer fights it, it can take longer, but most claims settle without a trial. Learn about the lemon law process.
Can I still file a claim if my warranty ran out? Yes, as long as the problem started before the warranty ended. What matters is the timing of the defect, not whether the warranty has since expired.
Do used cars qualify? Yes, if your car still had factory warranty coverage when the repairs began. Both new and pre-owned vehicles can be covered. Here’s a checklist to see if your car is a lemon.
Do I sue the dealer or the manufacturer? Most claims are against the manufacturer, even when the dealer performed the repairs. We handle that back-and-forth for you. See how to file a lemon law claim in California.
