A quick eligibility check
Your Regal 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.

Buick Regal Lemon Law FAQ
My Buick Regal's 2.0T engine failed due to oil pump problems under warranty. Can I pursue a Lemon Law claim in California?
Yes. A catastrophic engine failure caused by a defective oil pump is a clear substantial nonconformity under the Song-Beverly Act. Even a single engine replacement may support a lemon law claim if the defect is severe enough. If the replacement engine develops the same oil pressure issues, your case becomes even stronger.
The dealer applied a software update for my Regal's transmission shudder but it came back. Does this count as a repair attempt?
Yes. Under California Lemon Law, any attempt by the dealer to fix the problem counts as a repair attempt, including software reflashes, fluid changes, and adaptive relearns. Each visit where the dealer addresses the transmission shudder complaint is documented on a repair order and counts toward the statutory threshold for a lemon law presumption.
Is the airbag occupant sensor defect in my Regal a safety issue that strengthens my California Lemon Law case?
Absolutely. A malfunctioning occupant detection sensor that disables the passenger airbag is a critical safety defect under the Song-Beverly Act. California law provides a lower threshold of only two repair attempts for defects that could cause death or serious bodily injury. A non-deploying airbag in a collision clearly meets this standard.
Can I get a replacement Buick vehicle instead of a refund under California Lemon Law for my Regal?
Yes. The Song-Beverly Act gives the consumer the choice between a refund and a replacement vehicle of the same make and model. If the Regal model has been discontinued, you are entitled to a comparable replacement vehicle. The manufacturer must also cover any incidental costs such as registration transfer and sales tax on the replacement.
