Fighting for your rights, the right way.

The Lemon Law Isn't Just For Cars

5/26/2018

 
​The Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act is commonly known as the Lemon Law, but actually provides much broader consumer protections than just for vehicles.  It covers all manner of new consumer goods that are used, bought, or leased primarily for personal, family, or household purposes. Consumer goods include furniture, household appliances, home electronic products, assistive devices for individuals with disabilities, and 5th wheels, among others.

 This Warranty Act also sets forth requirements for notification to consumers about both express and implied warranties to ensure those warranties and any disclaimers are more readily understood.  If you experience product defects, you must notify the manufacturer before the warranty expires (preferably in writing), so keep an eye on your warranty expirations!  Put them in your e-calendar, register them, set a reminder for three months prior to the expiration.  Manufacturers are betting on you forgetting or not thinking it's worth the hassle.  Be the hassle!

    My goal is to help you avoid common car sales scams, educate you about your rights, and teach you to walk away from a bad deal.

    And, I get to vent about my pet peeves and those times when I think....  aaaaggghh, don't do that!

    I have a playful sense of humor.  Please take my blog posts with a grain of salt. They'll taste better that way.

    If you want legal advice, it's not here.  But you can call my office at
    ​(559) 691-6900 and we'll see what we can do for you. No guarantees, but it might be your lucky day!
