California Lemon Law For Ford Vehicles

When it comes to all-American vehicles, you think of Ford. For more than a century, Ford Motor Company has produced millions of cars and trucks that people across the U.S. rely on for daily driving.

Despite their legacy of practically inventing the modern vehicle, Ford does not always get everything right. Some Ford vehicles have turned out to be frustrating and costly lemons to consumers like yourself.

Is Your Ford A Lemon?

For your Ford to qualify as a lemon under California law, you must have purchased it with a written warranty from a dealership and not a private party.

Another prerequisite is for you to have taken your new, leased, or certified pre-owned vehicle to a dealership numerous times for repair attempts. If you’ve taken your Ford to get repaired multiple times while covered under warranty, your Ford may qualify as a lemon under California law.

Defects In Ford Vehicles That Can Warrant A Lemon Law Claim

Any material defect that cannot be fixed in a reasonable number of attempts can qualify your Ford as a lemon. Defects that could warrant a Ford Lemon Law claim include:

• Transmission problems
• Engine surging / stalling / loss of power
• Electrical problems / warning light errors
• Driveshaft fractures
• Defective start / stop system
• Wiring and electrical problems including shorts
• Seatbelt detachment from anchor
• Windows / sunroof shattering
• Brake problems
• Airbag and curtain airbag problems including detachment
• Fuel pump defects
• Excessive oil consumption

You may be eligible for a lemon law claim If your vehicle has these or other problems that interfere with its use and/or safety.
