Michigan's Lemon Law Protects Consumers From Buying 'Lemons' or Defective Vehicles
Every state has its own unique Lemon Law statute. Michigan's Lemon Law statute, MCL Section 257.1402 is officially titled "Repair of defect or condition" and, although in not the most simple manner, states as follows:
If a new motor vehicle has any defect or condition that impairs the use or value of the new motor vehicle to the consumer or which prevents the new motor vehicle from conforming to the manufacturer's express warranty, the manufacturer or a new motor vehicle dealer of that type of motor vehicle shall repair the defect or condition as required under section 3 if the consumer initially reported the defect or condition to the manufacturer or the new motor vehicle dealer within 1 of the following time periods, whichever is earlier:
- (a) During the term the manufacturer's express warranty is in effect.
- (b) Not later than 1 year from the date of delivery of the new motor vehicle to the original consumer.
So what does that all mean? Finding a good lemon lawyer is essential to defending your rights against big car manufacturers and dealerships.
In Layman's Terms, In Order to Qualify as a 'Lemon' in Michigan, the Car Must:
(1) have an issue that impairs the USE OR VALUE; and
(2) that issue VIOLATES the manufacturer's express warranty.
