A new or used car should always be accompanied with a warranty. It is a friend of your car that helps in the hours of emergency.

The warranty that accompanies a used car is known as the used car warranty law. In some countries, it is also called ‘lemon law’. You must be wondering what is the relation between a car and a lemon. It is interesting to know that a car is called a ‘lemon’ when despite regular repairs from the dealer, the car still continues to have defects.

The car qualifies to become lemon when the car has been repaired for so many times for the same repeated defect within the warranty period and the defect still persists. Hence, we can say that lemon law is a safeguard tool for the auto warranty.

The lemon law is a clause in used car warranties that protects us from defected cars and fraudulent dealers. Under this law, the dealer has to give a written warranty explaining in details all the terms and conditions as well as coverage claimed in the warranty. Also, the lemon law or the used car warranty law states that in case the dealer is not able to repair the defects after number of attempts, then the car owner is applicable to get full refund of the car’s purchase price.
