Understanding California Lemon Law

California’s lemon law, also known as the Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act, is designed to protect consumers who purchase or lease defective vehicles. Under this law, manufacturers are required to repurchase or replace vehicles that have substantial defects impairing their use, value, or safety. To qualify, the vehicle must have been subject to a reasonable number of repair attempts without success. This law applies to vehicles sold or leased in California, including new and used cars, trucks, and SUVs. If your GMC vehicle is constantly in the shop, California’s lemon law could be your best ally in seeking a resolution.

General Motors Company has a reputation for building rugged and dependable vehicles, but no manufacturer is perfect. Certain GMC models have been known to come with defects that can make them lemons. Take, for example, the 2020 recall of over 230,000 GMC vehicles due to faulty brakes in GMC. Or the nearly 100,000 trucks recalled in 2019 for engine issues. These problems can be more than just frustrating – they can be safety hazards. If your GMC is in the shop more often than on the road, it’s time to take action. You may be driving a lemon.
