Volkswagen Tiguan Lemon Law Attorney

Yes, the Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act covers your Tiguan if the DSG transmission defect substantially impairs the vehicle's use, value, or safety and remains unrepaired after a reasonable number of attempts. California law generally considers two or more repair attempts for a safety-related defect or four or more attempts for other warranty issues as sufficient. You should retain all repair orders documenting each visit for the transmission concern.

Under the Song-Beverly Act, if the same defect has been subject to four or more repair attempts, or the vehicle has been out of service for 30 or more cumulative days, you may have a valid lemon law claim. For safety defects such as loss of power or sudden stalling related to the EA888 engine, only two repair attempts may be required. An experienced lemon law attorney can evaluate your specific repair history at no cost.

Absolutely. The Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act protects lessees just as it protects purchasers of new vehicles. If your leased Tiguan has recurring defects covered under the manufacturer's warranty, you are entitled to a replacement vehicle or a refund of all lease payments made. The lessor and Volkswagen are both considered responsible parties under the statute.

Under the Song-Beverly Act, you may be entitled to a full refund of the purchase price, including down payment, monthly payments, registration fees, and incidental damages such as towing and rental car costs. Alternatively, you may receive a comparable replacement vehicle. Volkswagen is also required to pay your attorney fees and costs if your claim is successful, so there is typically no out-of-pocket expense to pursue the case.
