Your Chevrolet 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.

Chevrolet Lemon Law FAQ

Can I file a Lemon Law claim for my Chevrolet Bolt EV battery recall?

Yes. Even though GM issued a recall for the Bolt EV and EUV battery fire risk, you still have Lemon Law rights in California. If you experienced battery-related issues, were told to park outside and limit charging, or waited months for the battery replacement, those restrictions substantially impaired your vehicle's use and value. Many Bolt owners have successfully obtained buybacks.

Is the Silverado transmission shudder a known Lemon Law defect?

The Silverado 8-speed (8L90) and 10-speed automatic transmissions have been the subject of thousands of complaints and numerous Lemon Law claims. GM has issued multiple technical service bulletins (TSBs) for torque converter shudder, harsh shifting, and clunking. If a transmission fluid flush or torque converter replacement has not resolved the problem, you likely qualify for a Lemon Law buyback.

My Chevrolet Equinox burns through oil between changes. Is that covered?

Excessive oil consumption is a well-documented defect in several Chevrolet models, particularly those with the 2.4L Ecotec engine. If your Equinox or Traverse requires oil top-offs between scheduled changes and the dealer has confirmed abnormal consumption through an oil consumption test, this defect can support a strong Lemon Law claim. Low oil levels can cause catastrophic engine damage if not caught in time.

What is the AFM/DFM lifter failure issue on Chevrolet trucks?

Active Fuel Management (AFM) and Dynamic Fuel Management (DFM) systems deactivate cylinders to save fuel, but the lifters in these systems are prone to collapse, causing loud engine knocking, misfires, and reduced power. Repair typically costs thousands of dollars even under warranty due to repeat failures. This is one of the strongest Chevrolet Lemon Law claims because the defect often recurs after repair.

Are leased Chevrolet vehicles covered by California Lemon Law?

Yes. California's Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act covers both purchased and leased vehicles. If your leased Chevrolet has a recurring defect that the dealer cannot fix, you are entitled to the same remedies as someone who purchased the vehicle, including lease termination, reimbursement of payments, and potentially a replacement vehicle.
