Lemon Law Attorney in Orange County
With its dazzling beaches, pleasant weather, and sunny skies, it’s no wonder why so many Californians flock to Orange County. On the daily, Orange County residents find themselves cruising down Highway 5 and the iconic Pacific Coast Highway. However, without a reliable vehicle to depend on, life in Orange County can be quite difficult.
If you constantly find your car in the repair shop for the same warrantied issue, you may have a lemon on your hands. A ‘lemon’ is a vehicle that, despite being under the manufacturer’s warranty, is devalued or unsafe to drive due to irreparable defects. Even though manufacturers have good intentions and abide by strict industry regulations, mistakes are inevitable. But the manufacturer’s mistake doesn’t have to be your problem.
If you’ve purchased a lemon in Orange County, you are legally entitled to a refund, replacement vehicle, or a cash settlement. With a skilled lemon law attorney from Golden Lemon by Compass Law Group LLP on your side, you can confidently file a claim and receive the compensation you deserve.
Lemon Law in Orange County, California
Due to the number of lemons inadvertently sold in California, the state has instituted ‘lemon laws’ to protect the rights of consumers who unwittingly drive away from the dealership with these defective vehicles.
If you live in Orange County, you are protected by one of the country’s strongest lemon laws — the Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act. Under this legislation, consumers are entitled to one of the following forms of compensation if they purchase a lemon:
- The manufacturer will replace the vehicle
- The manufacturer will repurchase the vehicle
- The consumer can negotiate a cash settlement
The team at Golden Lemon by Compass Law Group, LLP are experts in California lemon law and will harness it to help you receive the compensation you deserve.
Qualifying for Compensation Under the Lemon Law in Orange County
To qualify for a refund, replacement, or settlement, your vehicle must meet the following criteria:
- Your warrantied vehicle has a life-threatening defect that cannot be repaired after two repair attempts
- Your warrantied vehicle’s defect is not life-threatening, but cannot be repaired after four repair attempts
- Your warrantied vehicle has been out of service for more than 30 days

How Do I Determine If My Vehicle is Actually a “Lemon?
Since not every vehicle with a defect can legally be classified as a lemon, it’s important to understand some of the requirements.
To be deemed a lemon and qualify for compensation, your vehicle must:
Have a defect that cannot be repaired after a reasonable number of attempts (2-4 depending on the issue) OR be out of service for 30 days or more.
Be under warranty.
Be made between 2019-2025.
Your car can qualify as a lemon regardless of whether it’s brand new, used, or leased. Here are the criteria:
- New Vehicles: New cars, trucks, SUVs, and other motor vehicles that have been bought or leased for personal, family, or household use are covered by California’s Song-Beverly Act.
- Used Vehicles: Used vehicles are also protected under California lemon law, provided they are still under the manufacturer’s original warranty or a certified pre-owned warranty. Note: if you purchased your car from an individual seller rather than a dealer, it likely won’t qualify.
- Leased Vehicles: Just like new and certified pre-owned vehicles, leased vehicles are covered under the Song-Beverly Act.
Take the next step to see if your vehicle is a lemon. Fill out the simple form below, and find out in just minutes whether or not you qualify for compensation.
