The Massachusetts Lemon Law protects consumers who have serious defects in new vehicles. The law defines a lemon as lemon new or leased motor vehicle that has a defect that substantially affects the use, market value, or safety of the vehicle and has not been repaired after a reasonable number of attempts.
If the new or leased vehicle has a major flaw that still exists or recurs after a reasonable number of repair attempts, then you may be entitled to a refund or replacement vehicle. Note that not all car problems are serious enough to qualify for lemon law in Massachusetts.
Vehicles covered by Massachusetts Lemon Law:

The Lemon Law also covers vehicles resold within one year or 15,000 miles of protection, and new vehicles leased after July 1, 1997. Continue reading Lemon Law Massachusetts
