What is the Lemon Law presumption?
A "presumption" is a rebuttable conclusion based on facts.
Some cars are “presumed” to be a Lemon under California’s Lemon Law. You probably are wondering, “What is the Lemon Law presumption?”
California’s Lemon Law presumption says that a car qualifies under the if during the first 18 months or 18,000 miles after the purchase or lease of the new vehicle, any of the following occur:
The vehicle is repaired at least two times for a serious safety defect that can cause serious bodily injury or death; or
The vehicle is repaired at least four times for the same non-substantial safety defect; or
The vehicle is out of service for a total of more than 30 days for any combination of defects.
In California, if the owner/lessee can establish any of the 3 scenarios above, then their vehicle is “presumed” to be a Lemon. The judge will tell the jury that they must presume the vehicle is a Lemon.
Case over? Not quite. The manufacturer still has a chance to contradictory evidence, but the “burden” of proving this is on them.
