Do you own or lease a new (or used under BMW factory warranty or BMW Certified Pre-Owned Warranty) a 1 series, 2 series 3 series, 4 series, 5 series, Z3, Z4, X2, X3, X4, X5, X6, M series, 6 series or 7 series that has had repeated symptoms/problems, and at least one of the symptoms/problems has been subject to 3 or more repair attempts at the dealership during the original 4 year/ 50,000 mile factory new vehicle limited warranty (or “BMW Certified Pre-Owned” warranty)? A number of BMW vehicles had various known mechanical and/or safety impairment issues. If you have had multiple warranty repair attempts for the same issue, or an excessive number of days in the shop, you may have a BMW vehicle that qualifies for coverage under California’s Lemon Law. You could receive your money back or a new replacement BMW! (replacement only applicable on vehicle’s acquired new). Vehicles must have been purchased or leased from an automobile dealer in California. Private Party purchases are not applicable to California Lemon Law.

criteria noted above, please
call us at the toll-free number
below to receive a FREE Lemon
Law case review and evaluation
of your vehicle.
PLEASE
NOTE:
For engine/drive-ability/etc.
cases, we do not accept cases
for review in which the owner
has modified the vehicle via
installation of aftermarket
performance “chips”,
“mapping”, “intake
systems” and “starting at
the exhaust manifold” exhaust
systems, etc. We
also do not pursue cases wherein
one or more repair invoice on
your BMW states “outside
influence – not a warranty
issue” or “evidence of
tampering”. If the vehicle is used for "business purposes," a lemon law claim/case cannot be brought on that vehicle if there are more than 5 vehicles registered to the owner/business.
Cases that are accepted will be
at a very low “contingency
fee” to the consumer (attorney’s
fees billable to auto
manufacturer under statute if
attorney settles case).
We
would like to stress that
BMW’s are one of the highest
quality and most technologically
advanced vehicles on the market,
and that the issues noted above
will likely not happen to most
owners of these vehicles. That
being said, despite a
manufacturer’s best efforts, some BMW’s will turn out to be “lemons” by their qualifying
warranty repair histories. For
these vehicles California’s
largest lemon law firm can be a
great asset to consumers in
getting their legal entitlement
under the California Lemon Law.
The
California Lemon Law protects
consumers that purchase or lease
new BMW vehicles in the state of
California, register them here
via paying California tax and
license (registration), and have
their warranty repairs performed
at factory authorized California
BMW dealership locations.
Consumers must keep their
warranty work receipts, or gain
a “warranty repair history”
printout from the dealership to
prove the repairs/repair visits
that have taken place.
Our
lemon law statute in California
provides the manufacturer of
your vehicle with a
“reasonable” number of
repair attempts to rectify the
problem/symptom. The number of
repair visits necessary to be
“reasonable” is relative to
how many months the car has been
in warranty service, the
description and substantiality
of the symptom/problem, and the
number of miles currently on the
car. It should be noted that
contrary to what you may read in
your vehicles warranty book,
California has no requirement
for “arbitration”, allowing
the consumer to directly seek
and retain legal counsel to
represent them in a “lemon
law” case.
Manufacturer’s
“Customer Assistance
Centers” give out “case
numbers”, which are NOT a
lemon law case, but rather
simply a reference number for
the next time you call in with a
complaint.
Watch
out for the age-old trick of the
“dealer trade assist” or
similar wording used by some car
dealers if a customer complaints
about his/her BMW that has
symptoms/problems. Customers are
often told “we will get you
out of your car and into a new
one”. Don’t fall for this
time-worn consumer ploy. This is
simply the dealer trying to take
your 335i back in trade and sell
you a new one, taking all the
negative equity from your
current BMW and hiding it in the
loan or lease on the new
replacement vehicle.
Our
California lemon law is the
avenue car buyers utilize to get
their money back, or a new replacement BMW vehicle.
Under
our California statute,
consumers who buy or lease a new
vehicle (or a used BMW that is
still under the manufacturer’s
new vehicle warranty or
“Certified Pre-Owned”
100,000 mile CPO warranty
program) all get to exercise
their California Lemon Law
rights if they have a qualifying
repair history.
We invite you to call us today. We are consumer
advocates. We are on your
side. We have settled over
18,000 California lemon law
cases. We have 35 years of
experience as we do ONLY
“lemon law cases” – no
other area of legal practice.
