Gothenburg, Sweden January 18 — Lemon laws protect consumers that have purchased cars that repeatedly fail to meet set standards regarding performance and quality. A car that fails to meet these standards is called a lemon. There is no nation wide lemon law, and it is therefore important for the consumer to know the law governing his or her particular state. In some states, the consumer will for instance be covered not only after a purchase, but also when leasing vehicles. The laws also vary significantly from state to state when it comes to previously used cars.

The lemon laws in Nevada are similar to those found in many other states, but will vary at some points. You should therefore never assume that you will have the same protection in Nevada as in any other American state. Compared to other states, the Nevada lemon law can decrease your rights as well as increase them, depending on your current situation.

According to the Nevada lemon law, you will be protected by the lemon law when purchasing a new motor vehicle unless it is an off-road vehicle or a motor home. You are considered a protected buyer when you purchase a motor vehicle that is normally used by individuals, families or households. You should note that under the Nevada lemon law you are protected as soon as you have contracted to purchase such a vehicle, even if you haven’t actually bought the vehicle yet.

As soon as you suspect that your car might be a lemon, you should write to the manufacturer of the car. To stay protected by the Nevada lemon law, it is important that you actually write a letter. Simply calling the manufacturer is not enough. The letter should be sent to the manufacturer before the manufacturer’s warranties expires, or within one year after the car was delivered to the first buyer. The date that occurs first of these two is the important date. If this date occurs once you have notified the manufacturer, you still stay protected. As soon as you have notified the manufacturer by sending a letter, your car is entitled to necessary repairs. You car should be repaired by the manufacturer, the manufactorer’s agent or an authorized dealer.

According to Nevada lemon law, the manufacturer – or the agent or authorized dealer – can choose to give you another car instead of repairing your old one. They can also refund the purchase price to you. If they fail to repair your car despite having tried it four times or during more than 30 days of repair time, they are forced to replace the car or give you a refund. To receive a new vehicle or a refund, you old car must have a problem that "substantially impairs the use and value of the motor vehicle to the buyer". The problem must not be "the result of abuse, neglect or unauthorized modifications or alterations."
