Lemon Law Explained

There may be a slim chance that the vehicle you bought has some defects which seem to be irreparable no matter how many times you have taken the vehicle to the mechanic.

In such cases, your vehicle is considered a lemon, and you have the legal right to demand a refund or a replacement. If the dealer or manufacturer fails to do so, you can file a lawsuit against them.

All fifty states have their own laws on lemon vehicles, each state varying slightly from another. Differences usually center around the reasonable time period in order to declare that your vehicle is a lemon, and the extent of how the dealer or manufacturer is supposed to recompense you.

Main Highlights of Oklahoma Lemon Laws

If you have purchased your lemon vehicle at any city or town of Oklahoma, then you follow the general rules of the state. Oklahoma lemon laws have provisions that are similar to most other states.

You can claim your car as a lemon if you have spent for at least four repairs occurring within a one year period from the date of delivery of your vehicle to
you. The damage should not have been caused by you or other drivers of the same car.

The vehicle's manufacturer or authorized mechanics has the responsibility of repairing and correcting the problem for you without any charge on your end. If the vehicle can no longer be repaired and the problem continues, the manufacturer is supposed to replace the engine or part completely or give you a refund. The refund amount should include not only the purchase price of the vehicle but also other costs you have incurred, such as taxes, license and registration fees. He may deduct interest charges and a small reasonable amount for your use of the car.
