FAQ

Lemon Law Questions from Mount Shasta Drivers

How long do I have to file a lemon law claim in Mount Shasta?

The deadline depends on whether your vehicle’s manufacturer has opted into California’s updated lemon law procedures under AB 1755. If your manufacturer opted in, you must file within one year after your express warranty expires, and no later than six years from the original date of vehicle delivery — whichever comes first. If your manufacturer has not opted in, the prior rule applies: you generally have four years from when you first discovered or should have discovered the defect. Because the deadline varies by manufacturer and circumstances can affect tolling, contact us promptly to preserve your rights.

Do I need to go through arbitration first?

No. California lemon law does not require you to participate in manufacturer arbitration programs before filing a lawsuit. Many programs are designed to delay and discourage valid claims. We file directly in Siskiyou County Superior Court when necessary to get you the best result.

Can I get a lemon law refund on a leased vehicle in Mount Shasta?

Yes. Leased vehicles are fully covered under the Song-Beverly Act. If your leased car qualifies, you may receive a refund of all lease payments made, the down payment, and any other out-of-pocket costs — plus the manufacturer pays our attorney’s fees.

What if the manufacturer denies my claim?

Manufacturer denials are common and often reversed through litigation. Our Mount Shasta lemon law attorneys know how to challenge denials and will pursue your case aggressively in court, with no cost to you unless we win.
