We recently represented a client living in Livermore, CA, regarding his 2012 Mercedes Benz C250w. Nine months ago the car started leaking oil. He had given the Mercedes-Benz authorized dealership at least four opportunities to make the necessary repairs. In total the vehicle was in the dealer’s shop for more than 45 days and the oil leak still was not fixed! Continue reading
Lemon laws are American state laws that provide help for purchasers of cars and other consumer goods who have bought products that repeatedly fail to meet the standards of quality and performance.
Each state imposes different requirements for their lemon laws, but a basic condition common to almost all jurisdictions is that in order for the lemon law to apply, the automobile or product must have been purchased with a warranty. Products purchased “as is” are typically not covered by state or federal lemon laws.
The California lemon law applies to all new and used vehicles, whether purchased or leased, for personal and most small business use. Learn more about the California Lemon Law Requirements
You may have recently received a letter from the manufacturer of your car or truck offering you a trade-in of your vehicle for one of the manufacturer’s new vehicles. While this may at first glance look like a good deal, if you look closely you’ll see the manufacturer is probably only offering you the opportunity to trade up to a newer model. Under this trade in offer you would have to pay off the balance of your existing loan or lease, plus pay the mileage deduction allowed under the California law. Continue reading

A man from Simi Valley California contacted us about his 2008 GMC Acadia. It had over 50,000 miles on the vehicle but his recurrent problems had started at just over 5,000 miles.

He was a previous client of Mr. Delsack’s so he knew the drill. He emailed us copies of his purchase agreement, repair orders, registration, and title (he owned the vehicle). Mr. Delsack reviewed the paper work and called him as he thought his vehicle qualified under the California Lemon Law and agreed to represent him again. Continue reading
We had a gentleman call us about a problem with the T-top in his 2012 Jeep Wrangler. Whenever the vehicle was driven in heavy rain, water would leak in from the middle of the top and drip down onto the dashboard. The first time he experienced the problem was when the vehicle was new with only 900 miles on it. He continued to take the Wrangler to a manufacturer approved repair facility 6 more times for the same problem. He heard about the California Lemon Law and felt like he had given the dealership a reasonable number of repair attempts, so he contacted the Law Offices of Delsack & Associates. Continue reading
We had a gentleman call us regarding his 2013 Nissan Altima. Problems with the vehicle started from day one when he took it for a test drive and noticed that the passenger seat airbag light was illuminating.

That is when he contacted the Law Offices of Delsack & Associates to see if his car could qualify under the California Lemon Law. Continue reading
