RAM LEMON LAW

In order for your Ram truck to qualify as a lemon under the California Lemon Law, the issues you are facing with your Ram truck must be considered substantial. This means that the problems must substantially impact the use, value, or safety of your Ram truck. A common misconception is that in order for a truck to qualify as a lemon, the problems must impact the safety of the truck. This is not true. Some examples of problems that could be considered substantial are problems involving:

• Brakes
• Engines
• Steering
• Electrical systems
• Suspension
• Air conditioning/heating systems
• Windows
• Transmissions
• Doors
• Back up cameras
• Water leaks

There are several possible scenarios that qualify your Ram truck for monetary recovery or vehicle replacement under the California Lemon Law. It is important to remember that your truck does not have to be brand new or have incredibly low mileage in order to be protected. Even if you have over 50,000 miles on your Ram truck, if you took it in for repair while it was still under warranty it could still potentially be considered a lemon. Technically, even if it is no longer under warranty there is still a possibility of qualifying if there is an ongoing problem that required it to be in the shop several times prior to the expiration of the warranty. Additionally, your Ram truck could qualify as a lemon if it has been in the shop for an excessive number of days since you took possession of the car – even if all of the repairs have been for separate issues. A Ram truck that needs to be constantly repaired for different issues can often qualify as one that is substantially impaired under the Lemon Law.
