Is Your BMW A Lemon?
Your BMW must meet certain criteria before qualifying as a lemon under California law. One of the most important requirements is that you will need a written warranty, which usually comes with newly purchased vehicles, leases, and certified pre-owned cars. Another requirement is to demonstrate that your vehicle has a material problem that the manufacturer or a certified dealership cannot fix after multiple attempts.
Let The Barry Law Firm review your potential case to determine if you qualify for a lemon law claim.
