Ram ProMaster City Lemon Law FAQ

Is my Ram ProMaster City covered under California Lemon Law?

Yes. If your ProMaster City was sold or leased with a manufacturer warranty in California and has a substantial unrepaired defect, it qualifies for protection under the Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act.

How do I prove my ProMaster City is a lemon in California?

You need to show that your ProMaster City has a substantial defect covered by the warranty, that the dealer was given a reasonable number of repair attempts, and that the defect persists. Repair orders, invoices, and written communications with the dealer are key evidence.

Can MultiAir engine issues in my ProMaster City support a lemon law case?

Yes. Recurring MultiAir actuator failures, excessive oil consumption, and related engine problems are substantial defects under Song-Beverly. If the dealer has attempted multiple repairs without success, your claim is strong.

What is the mileage offset in a California lemon law refund for my ProMaster City?

The mileage offset is calculated based on the miles driven before the first repair attempt for the defect, divided by 120,000 and multiplied by the purchase price. This deduction accounts for your use of the vehicle before the problem arose.
