Arizona Lemon Law
Lemon laws vary between states, and Arizona is no different. The Arizona Lemon Law is found in Section 44-1261 to 44-1267 in the Arizona revised statutes. The statutes declare that if any newly bought car or automobile does not follow all of the applicable and expressed warranties, the automobile, dealer, agent or issuer of the warranty must make the repairs required so that the vehicle is now conforming with the expressed warranties.
Some of the possible fixes to the Arizona Lemon Law breach are:
If the automobile manufacturer, agents, dealer or issuer does not conform the vehicle to the service warranty through either fixing defects or repairing the vehicle that substantially weakens the value or use of it, the dealer, manufacturer, agent or issuer must:
Accept the return of the vehicle from the consumer and give them a full refund of what they paid. This must include all charges less than a reasonable mileage allowance said in section 44-1261 to 44-1267 of the Arizona Lemon Law.
If someone violates the Arizona Lemon law, the manufacturer must give the consumer an entirely new automobile to replace the old one. If the buyer seeks legal help and succeeds, the court will give the consumer modest costs and legal fees.
The above statement does not mean that automobile manufacturers, dealers, agents, or issuers are always losing Arizona Lemon Law claims. The automobile dealer, manufacturer, agent or issuer does have the option of filing a defence under the Arizona Lemon Law, citing many of the reasons you will find below.
One of the many defences that a manufacturer can take under the Arizona Lemon Law is that the problem with the vehicle does not entirely impair the vehicles market value or ability.
A second defensive standpoint would be a scenario where the non-conformity occurs out of neglect for the vehicle, non-authorized modifications, and the customer’s abuse.
Under the Arizona Lemon Law, it is assumed that enough time is given to the manufacturer, agent or authorized dealer of an automobile to double-check that it conforms to the warranties given if either:
The vehicle has been not running due to neglect for repair for a total of 30 days or more during an active period of the warranty duration or two subsequent years, or 24,000 miles, whichever comes first.
It has been taken into account that this assumption does not apply to the auto-maker except when the auto-maker has been warned through writing by the customer or their representative for the stated defects and problems and has been giving enough time to address the problem correctly. Otherwise, this person is liable to legal action under the Arizona Lemon Law.
