Understanding Your Rights
What Is a Lemon?
A lemon is any vehicle with recurring defects that the dealership or manufacturer fails to fix after multiple attempts.
These problems must substantially impair the vehicle’s value, use, or performance, as stated in the warranty.
The key questions are simple:
Did you receive a written warranty?
Have there been multiple failed attempts to fix the same issue, or has your vehicle been out of service for at least 30 days?
If you answer “yes” to either question, your vehicle may qualify under
Florida’s Lemon Law or the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act

Honest Advice
If your case doesn’t qualify, we’ll tell you up front.
You Don’t Pay Unless We Recover
In most cases, the manufacturer can be made to cover your attorney’s fees.
At Hatfield Consumer Law, we’re not just here to file cases — we’re here to fight for fairness, clarity, and accountability in every claim.
What We Handle
What Types of Vehicles Qualify?
At Hatfield Consumer Law, we handle a wide range of vehicles and warranty claims, including:
New vehicles covered by a manufacturer’s written warranty
Used vehicles sold or leased with a remaining warranty
Leased vehicles that continue to have the same repair issues
Cars, trucks, SUVs, boats, and RVs
There are no brand or model restrictions — the focus is simple: did the vehicle fail to live up to the warranty and did the manufacturer have a reasonable chance to fix it?
What We Handle
Common Defects & “Substantial Issues”
Any problem that significantly affects the value, performance, or safety of your vehicle may qualify as a substantial defect.
Common examples include:
Engine problems or engine warning lights that won’t stay off
Transmission or shifting issues
Electrical system failures
Brake, steering, or airbag malfunctions
Repeated warranty repairs for the same defect
Even if your issue seems “minor,” it can still qualify if it reduces reliability, value, or usability.
Your Rights
What Does the Lemon Law Do?
Both Florida’s Lemon Law and federal warranty laws exist to ensure manufacturers honor their warranties.
If your vehicle qualifies, you may be entitled to:
Cancellation of the contract and a full refund of the purchase price.
Reimbursement for repair costs, towing, and rental expenses.
Attorney’s fees paid by the manufacturer, not by you.
The goal is simple — to make consumers whole when their vehicles fail to meet warranty standards.
The Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act
The Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act is a federal consumer protection law that gives car owners (and buyers of other warrantied products) the right to pursue legal action when manufacturers fail to honor their written warranties.
Even if your case doesn’t fit Florida’s exact Lemon Law definition, this law can still protect you.
It applies to both new and used vehicles, purchased or leased, so long as there’s a valid written warranty.
At Hatfield Consumer Law, we use both state and federal laws to pursue the best possible outcome for your case.
