Knowing You're Covered
What Am I Entitled To?
Many consumers are left frustrated and confused after realizing that a new car or truck has problems. Fortunately, Louisiana law provides relief in the form of a repurchase, replacement, or a reduction in purchase price when your vehicle has been in and out of the shop for warranty repairs.
One of the first things we review when analyzing a lemon law case is the nature and persistence of the defect. This is because the severity and persistence of the defect dictates the type of relief available. In severe cases, the consumer may be entitled to a buyback or replacement of the defective vehicle, while less severe defects merit a reduction in what the consumer paid for the product.
Other things the consumer may be entitled to include:
Finance fees and interest paid for your auto loan
Repair expenses and towing charges
Car rental and alternative transportation charges
Registration fees and sales taxes
Funds expended to insure the vehicle
