What is a lemon law?

By the looks of it, its something to do with the industry fucking your car, and then you get a free one. But i know that cant be right. Someone help a noob?

Some states the law differs but in most the lemon law refers to having to have a car serviced 3 times within a certain time period (which varies around the country) for the same problem like say you bought a new car and within the first year it had to go into the shop 3 times because the trans. would not shift into gear properly. After the 3 time depending on the local lemon law and if it is even applicable that would constitute that car being a lemon as it has a reoccuring problem and the dealership would either have to give you your money back or give you another new car of same model.

Heh, thats pretty cool, i didn't know that, thanks
Also im part cherokee

yeah same here i know about some cars in general but not much about the engines

Depending on the state, almost any repeat problem can constitute a lemon. Here in VA, I believe it's bringing a new vehicle in 5 times for the same problem within 18 months, or something similar.

we have similar here in UK
