This nasty bit of trickery, in contrast, utterly forecloses any hope you might have of getting a replacement or refund for your lemon. You will no longer have any legal rights. The gauntlet is over, and you didn’t make it.
Don’t Get Help
At some point in the gauntlet, you may get so frustrated that you start asking the dealer or manufacturer about your rights under the lemon law. Invariably, you will be told that you should not even think of filing a lawsuit while they are "bending over backwards to help you." They will reassure you that the lemon law doesn’t offer you anything more than what they are offering you.
The manufacturer and dealer will tell you that, no matter what, you absolutely should not involve an attorney. They will tell you an attorney will just cost you more money, and that, once lawyers are involved, the manufacturer won’t be able to help you anymore. Hogwash! |
They will tell you anything they can to discourage you from consulting a professional. They know that you are nearing the end of the gauntlet. If you were to get legal advice, you would learn that they have been intentionally misleading you. You would learn your rights, and you could choose to pursue those rights.
