Your vehicle will likely qualify as a lemon if you report a defect to a dealer within the first 12 months or 12,000 miles of your ownership, whichever comes first, and if the vehicle is out of service for thirty days or more, or if it has been back to the dealer three times to repair the defect, or if it is a safety matter which has not been fixed the first time. Your car may also qualify if it has had many different problems, one after another. Even if you’re not eligible to recover under the Pennsylvania lemon law, you may be able to file a breach of warranty or similar claim. What you can recover under these laws is not as clearly defined, though most of our clients who file a breach of warranty claim receive a partial refund and keep the vehicle. Email david@lemonlawyerinfo.com with some details and we will tell you if you can qualify. You can also call us at 440-471-7071, give us some information, and we will tell you if your car, truck or other vehicle is a lemon under the Pennsylvania lemon law, and if a lawyer can help you. This is a free service and there is no obligation on your part.

NOTHING!! If you decide to retain an attorney for your Pennsylvania auto lemon law case, you will not have to pay anything out of pocket. If someone asks you to do that, call us and we will help with no cost to you. The PA lemon law requires the manufacturer of your vehicle to pay all of your legal fees and court costs if you win. Should Chernosky Law Offices agree to represent you in a lemon law or breach of warranty case, all attorney fees and the costs of bringing the case are paid by the manufacturer when your case is settled or won. If we don’t win, we don’t get paid! We do this so there is no risk to you and because we believe our system works.

Your car does not have to be “brand new”. If it is several years old, there is a good chance you can still use the PA lemon law. To qualify under the Pennsylvania lemon law, you must have originally purchased or leased the car as new, but you have several years to make a claim under the PA auto lemon law. Plus, even if you purchased a used vehicle that has defects, you may have a breach of warranty claim as long as the defects began when the car was under warranty. You never know until you try. Don’t lose money on a car that has problems which are not your fault. We can be your resource for your lemon law questions. Call 440-471-7071 or email david@lemonlawyerinfo.com, or fill out and submit the form on our website and let us help you understand your rights!

NO! The Pennsylvania lemon law only requires that you advise the dealer or your vehicle manufacturer that you have a defect within the first 12,000 miles and 12 months of your ownership. The subsequent repair attempts can occur after the first 12 months and 12,000 miles. You have four years to formally file for lemon law relief. As long as you reported the defects within the warranty period, then we can help you. The PA lemon law is not your only chance. We use other laws to recover something for our clients in 50% of our cases. Call 440-471-7071 or fill out the form on www.lemonlawyerinfo.com to find out if you can get some money or a new vehicle.

You will have to do almost nothing once we get involved with your case. Most of this can be done over the phone and through email and fax. Our PA auto lemon law attorney knows the fastest and easiest way for you to get a response from the manufacturer. You give us the information, we tell you if you have a case, and then we go to work immediately to get you a full refund, partial money back, or a new vehicle. Your work is very limited and you will be pleased at how simple it is to work with us.

If your auto is a lemon, the Pennsylvania lemon law says that the manufacturer must buy your vehicle back from you or replace it with a comparable new vehicle. Your lemon attorney in PA can also get fees paid by the manufacturer. If you decide to have your vehicle repurchased, you can get your down payment, trade in allowance and all car payments made. Plus the manufacturer must pay off the balance on any vehicle car loan.

Many times we get our clients a cash settlement and they keep their vehicles. This can be done even if the automobile is now fixed or you have already begun the process of trading it in. Our Pennsylvania lemon law attorneys have had great success in obtaining cash settlements, extended warranties, or both.

Contact us or submit your information using the form we have on the website! We can still do something for you because you now have a repair history and your vehicle may have lost some value if you try to sell it someday. The PA lemon law requires the manufacturer to repair the vehicle after a reasonable number of repair attempts. If the dealership made a few repair attempts or if the vehicle was out of service for a while because of the repairs, you may still have a claim under the lemon law in Pennsylvania even if the auto was ultimately repaired.

Provide us your information using the form on our website, call us at 440-471-7071, or send an email to david@lemonlawyerinfo.com. An attorney will evaluate your claim free of charge. We get started immediately after you tell us you want our help. Thank you for allowing us to be your source of information for PA lemon law and warranty issues.

You should take advantage of one or more of the other consumer protection laws designed to protect consumers who have purchased a problem vehicle, including the Pennsylvania Unfair Sales Practices Act, Pennsylvania Uniform Commercial Code, the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, and other contract remedies. These laws may enable you to get some money reimbursed to you or under some circumstances, get out of the vehicle entirely. Contact Chernosky Law Offices for a free, no-obligation consultation and we’ll tell you if we can help.

A lemon is an informal term used to describe a defective product, such as an automobile that doesn’t run properly. Most states have a lemon law designed to help consumers who bought problem vehicles.

Pennsylvania’s lemon law covers vehicles and light trucks. Other consumer laws, such as the Pennsylvania Consumer Protection Act, Pennsylvania Uniform Commercial Code, the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, and other contract remedies can be used to help us get you some compensation if you own a motorcycle, recreational vehicles, boat, motor scooter or bicycle.

If you recently purchased a new or used vehicle and you’re experiencing problems with it, you may have a lemon. One way to determine if your vehicle is a lemon is to take our online Lemon Test. You can also contact us and talk with an experienced lemon law attorney and warranty attorney who will review your vehicle history with you and let you know what options are available to you. Call us at 440-471-7071, send an email to david@lemonlawyerinfo.com, or submit your information into the form on our website and we will be happy to tell you if a Pennsylvania lemon law attorney can help you.

A breach of warranty is most common when there have been an unreasonable number of attempts to fix a particular problem during a vehicle’s warranty period, or there has been an unreasonable amount of time that the vehicle has been out of service because of repairs. The warranty can also be breached if the manufacturer refuses to repair a particular problem during the warranty period that should be covered under the warranty, but for whatever reason they claim it is not, or the manufacturer refuses to repair a particular defect after the warranty period has ended, but the problem was actually reported to them while the vehicle was still under warranty. Another possible way to prove breach of warranty is to show that the warranty has failed of its essential purpose because there have been so many problems with the vehicle that the warranty does not help much at all. Because there are a number of possibilities we suggest you contact us as soon as possible to discuss your options. As always, there is no charge for you to consult with one of our PA lemon lawyers or breach of warranty attorneys.

Every case is unique and the amount of times it takes to resolve it can vary. We have settled Pennsylvania lemon law cases and breach of warranty cases in as little as three (3) weeks. It is not unusual for cases to be resolved favorably within 30 to 90 days. On the other hand, a lemon law or consumer breach of warranty case that winds its way through the courts can take anywhere from four (4) to twelve (12) months, or longer. It is important that you do not delay. Call 440-471-7071, or email david@lemonlawyerinfo.com, or fill out our form online. We will not get started on a case unless and until you tell us to move forward.

Yes. If the vehicle is defective, it doesn’t matter if you purchased or leased it. Either way you can recover damages.

A vehicle can be considered a lemon, if there is a manufacturer’s defect that “substantially impairs” its use, value or safety. The manufacturer, through the dealer, is presumed to have made a reasonable number of attempts to repair the vehicle if one of the following is true: substantially the same problem has been subject to repair three or more times, the vehicle has been out of service for a total of 30 or more calendar days for repairs, eight or more different defective parts or problems have impaired the vehicle’s use or value, there has been at least one repair attempt for a safety-related problem, and the problem either continues to exist or recurs, a problem has not been fixed while the vehicle was under warranty and now the warranty is expired.

Do not be misled by dealers or others who say your vehicle doesn’t qualify under the PA lemon law. First, it’s in their best interest for you to not file a claim. Second, the lemon laws are complicated and they may not be qualified to determine if you’re entitled to relief. Finally, the lemon law is just one way to recover. You may have a breach of warranty claim or a claim under the Pennsylvania Consumer Protection Act, Pennsylvania Uniform Commercial Code, Federal Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, or other contract remedies. You should consult a lawyer in PA and if we decide to help with your case, it will not cost you anything. Call 440-471-7071 or email david@lemonlawyerinfo.com, or fill out the form and submit it over our website for a free, no-obligation case evaluation.

If your lawyer determines that the defects with your vehicle do not meet the requirements of Pennsylvania’s lemon law, you may still have a breach of warranty claim or a claim under other state and federal laws. Pennsylvania’s lemon law is only one of many laws designed to protect consumers who buy or lease a vehicle. The auto lemon law in PA and federal warranty laws in Pennsylvania are not exclusive. We offer a free consultation with an attorney who will review the facts of your case and let you know if you’re entitled to receive compensation for the problems you’ve experienced.

Getting started with a PA lemon law claim is easy with our Pennsylvania lemon lawyers. To build a strong lemon law or breach of warranty case, all you’ll need to begin is paperwork that shows the details of the purchase and the repair orders for the vehicle, as well as the vehicle registration. Don’t worry if you don’t have copies of all of the repair orders. We can obtain all the relevant documents you’ll need to file a claim. The most important thing is to get started with our Pennsylvania auto lemon law attorney sooner rather than later. Sending us the documents you have can get your case moving in the right direction and then we can supplement with other documents as we move forward.

No. Pennsylvania’s lemon laws state that you are the one who decides whether the manufacturer buys the vehicle back or replaces it with a new, problem-free vehicle. You are in command and you don’t have to accept any deal you’re not comfortable with.

Yes! Our experience has been that if a manufacturer wants to resolve your case with an extended warranty, we will, at the very least, be able to get you some money back in addition to the extended warranty. Contact us today to speak with an attorney immediately, or email david@lemonlawyerinfo.com to find out if you have a lemon law claim in Pennsylvania which our PA lemon law attorney can handle for purchasing a defective car, truck, motorcycle or RV.

You can try to work things out on your own and any recovery you get will be all yours. However, our experience has been that few consumers who represent themselves receive the full compensation they’re due. Most of our clients report wasting a lot of time trying to get the manufacturer or dealer to do the right thing before they call us. Hiring an attorney likely will put an end the delays and run-around and sends a strong message to the manufacturer that you mean business. And, because there are no out-of-pocket costs to you for our services, there’s no risk to letting us do the work for you in your lemon law or breach of warranty claim.

Yes. We will file the arbitration on your behalf if it is necessary. Keep in mind that generally, you are not bound by the arbitrator’s decision and, even if he or she rules against you, you can still file a lemon law or breach of warranty complaint in a court of law.
