A quick eligibility check

Your Tonale may qualify if…

These are common indicators under California's Song-Beverly Act. An attorney reviews the full repair and warranty history before determining whether the firm can take a case.

You bought or leased the vehicle in California.

The problem arose while a manufacturer warranty covered the vehicle.

The dealer has had repeated repair opportunities, or the vehicle has spent significant time in the shop.

The defect continues and substantially affects the vehicle's use, value, or safety.

Why a warranty isn't enough

Your warranty vs. the lemon law

A warranty is a promise to attempt repairs. The lemon law is what protects you when those repairs never stick.

The manufacturer's warranty

  • The manufacturer decides which repairs to attempt.
  • It only obligates them to keep trying — not to actually fix the problem.
  • When the warranty ends, the manufacturer's repair obligation ends.

California's lemon law

  • Kicks in when repeated repairs don't fix a substantial defect.
  • Can require a refund, a replacement vehicle, or a cash settlement.
  • Your legal claim can survive after the warranty ends — if the defect was reported while it was in force.
  • When you win, the manufacturer pays your attorney fees — not you.

Your California Lemon Law Rights

Under California's Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act, if your Alfa Romeo Tonale has a substantial defect that cannot be repaired after a reasonable number of attempts, you may be entitled to:

  • Attorney's fees paid by the manufacturer

Alfa Romeo Tonale Lemon Law FAQ

Can I file a California Lemon Law claim on my new Alfa Romeo Tonale?

Yes. The Song-Beverly Act applies to new vehicles purchased or leased in California that have substantial defects the manufacturer cannot repair within a reasonable number of attempts. If your Tonale has recurring warranty issues, you may be entitled to a refund or replacement.

My Tonale's hybrid battery is defective. Is this covered by Lemon Law?

A defective hybrid battery that substantially impairs the use, value, or safety of your Tonale can be the basis for a Lemon Law claim. Battery and electric drivetrain components are covered by the manufacturer warranty, and repeated failures to fix the issue strengthen your case.

How long do I have to file a Lemon Law claim for my Tonale in California?

You should file your claim while your vehicle is still under the manufacturer warranty. California law provides a statute of limitations of four years from the date you knew or should have known the vehicle was a lemon. Acting promptly and documenting all repair visits is strongly recommended.

What should I do if the dealer says my Tonale's problems are normal?

If the dealer dismisses your concerns, continue to bring the vehicle in for repair and ensure every visit is documented in writing. Under California Lemon Law, the manufacturer has an obligation to repair warranty defects. If they fail, you have the right to pursue a Lemon Law claim regardless of the dealer's opinion.
