A quick eligibility check
Your Outlander PHEV 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.

Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV Lemon Law FAQ
Does California Lemon Law cover the hybrid battery and electric drivetrain components of my Outlander PHEV?
Yes. All components covered under Mitsubishi's factory warranty, including the hybrid battery pack, electric motors, inverter, and charging system, are eligible under the Song-Beverly Act. Mitsubishi provides a separate extended warranty for hybrid components, and defects in these parts that substantially impair the vehicle qualify for lemon law protection.
My Outlander PHEV's EV range has dropped significantly. Can this be considered a defect under Lemon Law?
Yes, substantial battery degradation that falls outside normal parameters and occurs during the warranty period can constitute a defect under Song-Beverly. If the battery's capacity has dropped well below the manufacturer's specifications and Mitsubishi cannot restore it through repair or replacement, this impairs the vehicle's value and intended use as a plug-in hybrid.
I bought my Outlander PHEV partly for the California HOV lane sticker. If it is a lemon, do I get reimbursed for the premium I paid?
Under Song-Beverly, your refund includes the full purchase price and collateral charges. The premium you paid for a PHEV over a standard model is inherently part of the purchase price and would be included. Additionally, any registration fees, sales tax, and incidental costs related to the purchase are also recoverable in your lemon law claim.
Can Mitsubishi require me to wait for a software update to fix the hybrid system before my Lemon Law claim proceeds?
No. While Mitsubishi may offer a software update as a repair attempt, the Song-Beverly Act does not require you to wait indefinitely for a fix. If the manufacturer has already had a reasonable number of repair attempts or the vehicle has been out of service for 30 or more days, you are entitled to pursue your claim regardless of promised future fixes.
