Learn About Your Washington Lemon Law Rights
First, the Washington Lemon Law protects consumers who buy or lease motor vehicles, including demonstration vehicles, certain motorcycles, and motor homes. The Washington Lemon Law also covers some used motor vehicles bought with less than 24,000 miles and within 2 years from the original sale or lease date.
The Washington Lemon Law applies to 2 kinds of defects: (1) serious safety defects (life threatening vehicle problems) and (2) defects that substantially impair a car or truck’s use, value, or safety.
To seek relief under the Washington Lemon Law, a consumer who meets the law’s various requirements must send a written request to the manufacturer for a repurchase or replacement. If the manufacturer does not respond or does not provide a satisfactory response within 40 days, then the consumer may submit a claim to the state’s lemon law arbitration board. Claims under the Washington Lemon Law must be submitted to the state-run arbitration program within 30 months of the original sale.
Does My Car Qualify Under the Washington Lemon Law?
A vehicle may be a “lemon” if it has one or more qualifying defects that have undergone a reasonable number of attempts to diagnose or repair the vehicle. Under the Washington Lemon Law, a car or truck is subject to “a reasonable number of attempts” if:
- The vehicle undergoes at least two (2) attempts to diagnose or repair a serious safety defect (at least once during the manufacturer’s warranty period and the Lemon Law eligibility period) and the defect continues to exist;
- The vehicle has two (2) or more different serious safety defects that occur within a 12-month period. Each such defect must undergo diagnosis or repair at least once during the manufacturer’s warranty period and the eligibility period;
- The vehicle undergoes at least four (4) attempts to diagnose or repair a defect (at least once during the manufacturer’s warranty and the eligibility period) and the nonconformity continues to exist; or
- The vehicle is out of service a cumulative total of thirty (30) or more calendar days for diagnosis or repair of one or more defects or serious safety defects (at least 15 days during the manufacturer’s warranty period and the eligibility period).
The Washington State Lemon Law defines “eligibility period” as 2 years from the original delivery or 24,000 miles of use, whichever occurs first.
What About the Federal Lemon Law
Even if your repair history does not satisfy the lemon law, our Washington lemon law attorneys can assess if your car’s repair history is sufficient to qualify you for damages under the federal lemon law known as the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act. This law requires that your vehicle be presented for repeated repairs. This is a very effective law that helps provide consumers with money damages and sometimes repurchase or replacement relief when the Washington lemon law for cars may not apply.
Our Washington Lemon Law attorney will evaluate your situation free of charge and advise you on whether you may qualify for relief under the Washington Lemon Law. If you do not meet the requirements of the Washington Auto Lemon Law, you may still be entitled to relief under a federal lemon law called the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act. You have lots of options so take a moment to tell us your problem and we’ll tell you how we can help.
The state of Washington lemon law and other laws cited above require the manufacturer to pay your attorney fees. Therefore, any advice or actual representation that our Washington lemon law attorneys provide to our clients will be done at no charge to you.
