What To Do If Your Lexus Is A Lemon
It is vital that Lexus or one of its authorized dealerships was given an opportunity to fix the problem. Under California lemon law, manufacturers are allowed a reasonable number of attempts to fix the problem before deeming a vehicle a lemon. Also, check to see if your vehicle is covered by a written warranty. New cars and used cars such as those sold as certified pre-owned vehicles will likely be covered by a written manufacturer’s warranty. It’s important to know if a warranty covered your vehicle at the time the problems arose.
Once Lexus has had more than one attempt to fix the problem, here are a few things you may do if you believe your vehicle is a lemon:
- Contact The Barry Law Firm immediately for a FAST and FREE consultation.
- Collect all repair orders (request from a certified dealership if needed).
- Save all communication with the dealership and/or manufacturer.
- Gather your purchase agreement / lease agreement and registration.
- Document all problems with your vehicle.
- Keep a list of incidental costs related to your vehicle. For example, if you must get your vehicle towed because of its defects, keep receipts of those costs.
