If you’ve leased a vehicle that keeps breaking down or has persistent defects, you may still be covered. Under state law, lessees have many of the same rights as buyers when it comes to holding manufacturers accountable.

What the Law Says About Leased Vehicles
California’s Lemon Law (officially part of the Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act) covers certain leased vehicles, including new cars, trucks, and SUVs that are leased primarily for personal or household use. The law applies if your vehicle is still under the original manufacturer’s warranty and has a defect that the dealership or manufacturer can’t fix within a reasonable number of repair attempts.
The law also requires that the defect significantly affect the use, value, or safety of the vehicle. This might include problems with the brakes, transmission, electronics, or anything else that causes ongoing safety concerns or inconvenience.
If your leased car qualifies under the law, the manufacturer must offer a remedy. That could mean repurchasing the vehicle, replacing it, or paying you a cash settlement.
What Makes Leased Vehicle Claims Different?
Lemon Law claims for leased vehicles follow many of the same rules as those for purchased ones, but there are a few key differences. For one, the lease agreement itself may include specific terms that could affect the resolution process. Additionally, some settlements may involve paying off the remaining balance of the lease as part of the buyback or replacement.
This is one reason why it helps to work with a lawyer familiar with leased vehicle claims. We can examine the lease and push for a resolution that covers all your financial losses, not just your out-of-pocket costs.
