About us

Law Offices of Braff P.C.

You may have leased or purchased a truck that fails to function properly despite multiple repair attempts. You need not worry if this is the case. Your rights, as a consumer, are protected under the Song Beverly Consumer Warranty Act of California which is known as the California Lemon Law.

Trucks are covered by the ‘Lemon’ law in California since they are passenger vehicles. However, it must be under the ‘factory’ warranty and must meet the requirements of California’s ‘Lemon’ law. It is prudent to consult with an expert ‘Lemon’ law attorney in this scenario. We have years of experience in this field of law and have represented hundreds of frustrated consumers with ‘Lemon’ vehicles. We are not afraid to confront the lawyers retained by resourceful auto-manufacturing companies, and we ensure that our clients are fairly compensated for their losses and troubles.

New or Certified Pre-Owned Trucks – You are Covered by Lemon Law

Whether you purchase or lease a new truck, it comes with at least one manufacturer’s warranty. Therefore, we know that your vehicle is covered by the Song Beverly Consumer Warranty Act of California. However, you must file a ‘Lemon’ law claim within the warranty period; otherwise, you lose the opportunity to be compensated for your losses. Many trucks have more than one warranty and they cover different systems and parts. The additional warranties ensure that the defects or problems, that fall outside the category of normal wear and tear, are going to be covered by the manufacturer for a specified period.

Do not drive a truck which may be a ‘lemon’. It can cause fatal accidents. Book an initial consultation with us as soon as possible, get fairly compensated for your losses and stay safe on the road.

The Law Offices of Braff P.C. know that a pre-owned truck with the original manufacturer’s warranty is also covered by California’s Lemon Law. However, it is prudent to consult with us in Morgan Hill if you want to learn about your options as a consumer. It is also possible for older trucks, with higher mileage, to be covered under California’s Lemon Law. Even if they are not covered by a manufacturer’s warranty.

Your vehicle will be covered under California’s Lemon Law if it comes with a dealer’s factory warranty, or with an extended service contract at the time of the purchase. This type of warranty remains valid for a shorter period. Therefore, it is important to consult with us as soon as possible if you believe that your pre-owned truck may be a ‘Lemon’. Your vehicle also qualifies to be a ‘Lemon’ if the dealer misrepresented a truck’s original condition. Do not worry about a ‘Lemon’ vehicle in your possession before consulting with the Law Offices of Braff P.C.

Examples of Defects Covered Under the Lemon Law

According to the Song Beverly Consumer Warranty Act of California, a truck qualifies as a ‘Lemon’ vehicle if it has a substantial defect that negatively impacts its safety, use or value. Some of the defects of the truck which are covered by warranty are:

  • Malfunctioning engine that:
  • Misfires
  • Frequently stalls
  • Has surging issues
  • Abnormally vibrates
  • Becomes overheated
  • Make abnormal noises
  • Fails to start or has difficulty starting
  • Malfunctioning brakes with:
  • Failure of brake pedal
  • Premature wear and tear
  • Failure of anti-lock braking mechanism
  • Faulty power steering causing:
  • Vibrations
  • Leakage of fluid
  • The truck to pull to one side
  • Defective lights, such as:
  • Taillights
  • Headlights
  • Brake lights
  • Turn signals
  • Dashboard lights
  • Malfunctioning heating and cooling system
  • Faulty electrical system, such as blown fuses and other defects
  • Problems with transmission, such as slipping, hesitation, jerking, fluid leaks and hard shifting

Does Your Truck Qualify to Be a ‘Lemon’?

Every ‘Lemon’ law claim is unique, and the court makes the final decision with regards to whether a truck qualifies to be a ‘Lemon’. However, we can determine if a pickup vehicle is a ‘Lemon’ based upon several guidelines. Your truck may be a ‘Lemon’ if:

  • It has an ‘Express’ warranty and the defects are covered by this warranty.
  • No alteration to the truck or aftermarket part is responsible for the defect/s.
  • The defect negatively affects the value, safety, and performance of the truck.
  • It has been repeatedly in and out of the repair shop for the same substantial defect.
  • It has been in the repair shop multiple times even though mechanics have failed to repair the defect.
  • You have used and maintained the truck according to the guidelines in warranty and it continues to have issues.

Lemon Law for Commercial Trucks

California’s Lemon Law covers trucks (with a Manufacturer’s Warranty) for personal use, as well as the commercial trucks, which are being used by small businesses to protect them from financial losses. A commercial truck (purchased or leased) is covered under California’s ‘Lemon’ law if:

  • Its gross weight is less than 10,000 pounds.
  • The business has five or fewer vehicles registered in California in its name.

For a commercial or personal truck to be considered a ‘Lemon’, the ‘reasonable number of attempts’ need not be four times. If the defect is serious and significantly affects the safety, use, or value of a truck, then you may file a ‘Lemon’ law claim after two attempts at repairs.

Your truck may even qualify to be a ‘Lemon’ if it has remained in a repair shop for many days. In this scenario, the repair may be carried out for several issues. It does not affect a truck’s eligibility.

★★★★★ 5/5

I have used Braff Legal Group before to help me with a lemon law issue and they were very helpful. I called them up and they were able to answer all my questions on the phone. The process of working with them was very straightforward, which was perfect for me because I am not good with filling out legal documents.
