These lawsuits match our firm’s observation of numerous individual lemon law cases in which our clients have experienced jerking, hesitation, surging and lurching, which are are safety hazards because they affect the vehicle’s speed, acceleration and deceleration. Additionally, our clients have experienced a number of other issues with these vehicles, particularly related to the powertrain (i.e., engine and transmission), electrical system and infotainment system (i.e., back-up camera/navigation display).
Remember, under the right circumstances, class actions can either help and hurt the value of your individual claim. In most cases where lemon law rights are released in a class action settlement, your individual lemon law claim is more valuable than the class settlement proceeds, which may only be for a coupon toward a new purchase or an “extended warranty.”
Even worse, auto manufacturers often place time limits or other restrictions on the class settlement proceeds that prevent people from receiving anything in exchange for their released claims.
On the other hand, if you have a good lemon law claim you may be entitled to receive all your money back, or more, and your attorney’s fees are paid by the manufacturer because of the FEE SHIFTING PROVISION in California’s lemon law which allows us to take the case at no charge to you. If you have a good case we will front the costs and our time, and we only get paid by the manufacturer if we achieve a recovery for you.
