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.

Volvo Lemon Law FAQ
Does Volvo's infotainment system crashing qualify for California Lemon Law?
Yes, repeated infotainment system crashes in Volvo vehicles can form the basis of a strong Lemon Law claim in California. The center screen in modern Volvos controls critical functions including climate, defrosting, navigation, and the backup camera, so a persistent failure substantially impairs the vehicle's use and safety. Under the Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act, if Volvo's authorized dealers cannot permanently resolve screen blackouts, system reboots, or frozen displays after a reasonable number of repair attempts, your vehicle may qualify as a lemon. Lion Lemon focuses exclusively on California lemon law and offers free case evaluations for Volvo infotainment claims.
Can I file a Lemon Law claim for Pilot Assist phantom braking in my Volvo?
Absolutely. Phantom braking caused by the Pilot Assist system is a serious safety defect that California Lemon Law is specifically designed to address. Sudden, unexplained braking at highway speeds creates an immediate risk of rear-end collisions and qualifies as a defect that substantially impairs the safety of the vehicle under the Song-Beverly Act. Safety-related defects generally require fewer repair attempts before a vehicle is considered a lemon, sometimes as few as two dealer visits. If your Volvo continues to phantom brake despite software updates and sensor recalibrations, you likely have a strong Lemon Law case.
My Volvo XC90's air suspension keeps failing. What are my options?
Air suspension failure in the Volvo XC90 is a well-known and expensive problem that frequently supports successful Lemon Law claims in California. If your XC90 is sagging, displaying suspension warning messages, or requiring repeated air spring and compressor replacements while under the manufacturer's warranty, you may be entitled to a full buyback or replacement under the Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act. The cost of repeated air suspension repairs, which can exceed $3,000 per corner, underscores how substantially this defect impairs the vehicle's value. Contact Lion Lemon for a free evaluation of your XC90 air suspension claim.
Are Volvo Recharge plug-in hybrid problems covered by Lemon Law?
Yes, plug-in hybrid powertrain defects in Volvo Recharge models are fully covered by California Lemon Law. The Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act applies to all components covered by the manufacturer's warranty, including the high-voltage battery, integrated starter generator, and electric motor systems. If your Volvo T8 Recharge is experiencing propulsion fault warnings, dramatically reduced electric range, or charging system failures that the dealer cannot fix, your vehicle may qualify as a lemon. Volvo provides an eight-year, 100,000-mile warranty on hybrid battery components, giving you an extended window to document warranty repair attempts.
How many repair attempts does Volvo get before my car is a lemon in California?
Under California's Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act, there is a rebuttable presumption that your Volvo is a lemon if the manufacturer has made two or more repair attempts for a defect that could cause death or serious injury, or four or more attempts for any other substantial warranty defect. The vehicle also qualifies if it has been out of service for repairs for a cumulative total of 30 or more calendar days. However, these are just presumption thresholds, and you may have a valid claim even with fewer attempts depending on the severity of the defect and the circumstances. Lion Lemon can analyze your specific repair history to determine the best time to pursue your claim.
