What is the Lemon Law?
The Lemon Law is designed to
protect consumers that purchase new cars,
trucks, SUVs and mini-vans. As of 1993 all
fifty U.S. states have passed Lemon Laws.
Each state has different standards and
procedures, but all have similar coverage.
There are also other
Consumer Protection laws that apply to
consumer product purchases. Complaints,
recalls and class actions are also an option
for certain cases. There are options for
new, used and leased vehicles. |

What kind of vehicles are covered under state and federal
laws?
The Ohio Lemon Law covers cars, vans, light trucks
with less than 1-ton load capacity and not used in business, and
motorcycles. It also covers those parts of any motor home not used
for storage, cooking, eating or sleeping. It does not cover mobile
homes, manufactured homes or recreational vehicles.
However, if a consumer has a vehicle not covered by the
Ohio Lemon Law , we may still be able to help under the Magnuson-Moss
Warranty Act and other state and federal legislation. |
