Anyone thinking about lemon law?
I have been to the dealership 4 times with issues and my trade is sitting in the used lot. It has crossed my mind to lemon it and just get my old car back. Anyone else thinking about this?

Not sure how it is in AZ but in most states it has to have been in the shop for 3 or 4 times (depending on the state) for the same issue which still hasn't been resolved - or 30 consecutive calendar days or business days (again depending on the state). So if your state's laws are like most others you still have a little way to go to take advantage of the lemon law. Good luck!

Mine made a weird sound going into second and then it didn't want to shift right. Others have had a stiff clutch pedal and I guy I work with has to pump the clutch on his so it will shift. According to the dealership these are all problems with the pedal assembly not the clutch itself. |

According to A.R.S. § 44-1264, it is presumed that a reasonable number of attempts have been undertaken to conform a motor vehicle to the applicable express warranties under the Arizona Lemon Law if either:
Meeting the Arizona Lemon Law’s presumptions is not required to have a valid AZ Lemon Law claim. With that being said, having either of the Arizona Lemon Law’s presumptions met is helpful because it shifts the burden of proof under the AZ Lemon Law from the consumer to the car’s manufacturer. This is an additional advantage that the Arizona Lemon Law provides consumers. For additional Arizona Lemon Law information and a free no obligation case review visit FREE CASE REVIEW. Applicable Statute of Limitations for the Arizona Lemon Law The AZ Lemon Law’s protections are available in the first 2 years or 24,000 of a vehicle’s ownership and 6 months beyond that. For a consumer to exercise his or her rights under the Arizona Lemon Law, the consumer must: (i) report the warranty problem to the manufacturer, its agent or its authorized dealer or issuer of a warranty, AND (ii) begin an Arizona Lemon Law action within six months following the earlier of: (a) expiration of the express warranty term, or (b) two years or 24,000 miles following the date of delivery of the vehicle to the consumer, whichever is earlier. Those consumers that may be timed out of the Arizona Lemon Law, may still find Looks like very consumer friendly lemon laws in AZ. |

Yes Arizona and California both protect the consumers very well when it comes to these things I love the car but in the back of my mind I have thought lemon this one wait a year or two until they get all the bugs figured out and then buy one.

It has crossed my mind. Good to see the actual law. Based on the mile limitations I have about 4 more months to figure things out.
Of course I would get another FRS, hopefully get lucky with the next one. Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk 2 |

Explain please? I only ask because when washing mine last week the mirror felt kind of loose. Not falling off loose, but you could feel it moving. Weird...
