Defects That Trigger Lemon Law Protection in California

 A vehicle qualifies when specific defects compromise safety, reliability, or normal operation. Engine failures, brake issues, transmission faults, electrical malfunctions, and steering problems often fall under state protection.

We analyze repair invoices, technical service bulletins, and dealership notes to prove defect continuity and enforce manufacturer obligations.

How Defect Classification Impacts Your Case Value

Not all defects carry the same legal weight. Safety-related failures often accelerate eligibility for refund or replacement. Recurring drivability concerns or electrical faults can also strengthen recovery options.

We classify each defect category, determine its legal impact, and present a structured case directly to the manufacturer.
