Maserati MC20 Lemon Law

Yes. The Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act covers all new motor vehicles purchased or leased in California, including exotic and high-performance vehicles like the MC20. If a substantial defect cannot be repaired under warranty, you may be entitled to a refund or replacement.

A door mechanism that fails to operate properly is a critical safety defect. Under California Lemon Law, safety defects may require only two repair attempts before the vehicle qualifies as a lemon. Document every incident and seek immediate legal consultation.

If your MC20 qualifies as a lemon, you are entitled to a refund of the full purchase price, taxes, registration, and incidental damages, minus a mileage offset. Given the MC20's high price point, even the mileage offset can be significant, so early reporting of defects is important.

No. The manufacturer cannot claim that defects are acceptable because the vehicle is high-performance or exotic. California Lemon Law requires the vehicle to conform to its warranty regardless of its performance capabilities. A defect is a defect regardless of the vehicle's price or intended use.
