Extended Warranty And Your Lemon Law Rights
When you purchase a new or used car, depending on the car dealer,
you may be given the option to purchase an extended warranty.
This helps you be prepared for incidents or repairs that could
come along well after a dealer's warranty has expired. Some people
feel safer with an extended warranty because the cost of repairing
your car goes up every day. When you are considering the purchase
of an extended warranty you should be aware of the extent to which
your car is already under warranty and the how long you plan to
own the car. Have a look at a reliability record for this make
and model you are buying. Also figure in who is backing that extended
warranty and what is covered. These are all extremely important
aspects you should fully be aware of when you consider purchasing
a extended warranty. You should also be aware that in most cases,
if you purchase an extended warranty, your rights under the lemon
law will be limited. The Lemon Law applies only while your car
is under manufacturer's warranty- and only to the parts of the
car stated to be covered- dudring the first year of your ownership
of the car. If your chronic vehicle repair surfaces during the
time of the extended warranty, or on parts that are not covered
under the manufacturer's warranty, it cannot be filed a lemon
law vehicle. The lemon law, varies from state to state. However,
your rights under the law generally include a refund or replacement
of your car if you experience recurring issues and the manufacturer
is unable to solve the problems. Therefore, when you choose to
purchase the extended warranty, the warranty is put in place to
allow for the repairs. The warranties you are offered will differ
from manufacturer to manufacturer. If you have chosen to purchase
the extended warranty, know what you are buying. There are occasions
that the extended warranty service company will deny your claims
for service, or offer reimbursement rather than paying for your
repairs up front. If the service company tells you that your vehicle
repairs are not covered under their warranty, you still have rights.
You should continue to fight the claim and try to rectify the
situation with the service company. If all else fails, seek the
advice of a lemon law attorney. The attorney will likely be able
to help you get the repairs that are needed. Most extended warranty
companies do not want to deal with an attorney, especially if
they know they are in the wrong. On the other hand, if you have
not opted for an extended warranty, and you have repeated problems
with your newly-purchased vehicle that will directly affect its
safety, use or value you should contact a lemon law attorney as
quickly as possible. Your lemon law attorney will be knowledgeable
about your rights under the lemon law and be able to assist you
in filing your claim and hopefully winning it. It is important
before you purchase any vehicle that you know your rights, what
to expect and what you should do if you find you have purchased
a lemon law vehicle.
