Home › Best Lemon Law Attorney Near Me › Trucks
Pickup trucks work hard, and when a new truck keeps going back for transmission, engine or electrical problems, it costs you time and money. California lemon law covers trucks, including many work trucks, but there are rules about size and business use you should know.
Short answer: the best lemon law attorney for a truck case knows this type of claim, charges you nothing, will go to trial when a manufacturer will not be fair, tells you who will handle your case, and has real reviews you can check.

Work trucks and business use
A truck bought mainly for personal or family use is covered regardless of size. A truck bought for a business can also qualify if it is under 10,000 pounds gross vehicle weight and the business has five or fewer vehicles registered in California. Read more: Lemon law for business and work vehicles.
Towing is normal use
Towing and hauling within the manufacturer's ratings is normal use. If a manufacturer blames towing for a defect, an attorney can push back with your repair records and the truck's ratings.

Trucks Lemon Law FAQ
Does California lemon law cover pickup trucks?
Yes. Trucks bought or leased for personal use are covered. Trucks bought for a business can also qualify if they are under 10,000 pounds GVWR and the business has five or fewer vehicles registered in California.
Is a heavy-duty truck like an F-250 or Ram 2500 covered?
If it was bought mainly for personal use, yes. If it was bought for business use, the weight limit and fleet-size rule apply. An attorney can check your truck's GVWR and how it was bought.
The dealer says my truck problem is from towing. Do I still have a claim?
Possibly. Towing within the manufacturer's ratings is normal use. Your repair records and the truck's ratings matter.
How much does a truck lemon law attorney cost?
Usually nothing. California Civil Code section 1794(d) makes the manufacturer pay your attorney fees and costs when you win. At America's Lemon Lawyer you pay $0, win or lose.
