The above listed problems are just a handful of problems consumers have experienced with Mitsubishi in the past and present. If your Mitsubishi has a substantial defect that devalues the vehicle or interferes with it use and safety, it is probably a lemon vehicle. If it is a lemon, as a reminder: you are entitled to compensation, which could include reimbursement for repairs, replacement of the vehicle, or a refund for the vehicle.
California Lemon Law in California
When you purchased your new Mitsubishi, it was accompanied by a manufacturer’s warranty. This warranty protects you and your vehicle for certain repairs if requested within a set period. If your warranty is still good, then you are covered under California’s Lemon Law. To qualify for the protections under the Lemon Law, you must answer one of the following questions affirmatively:
- Under manufacturer warranty, did you have four or more repairs for the same defect? Did the defect begin under the factory warranty?
- Under manufacturer warranty, did you attempt to repair at least twice a safety defect that could result in serious bodily injury or death?
- Under manufacturer warranty, was your Mitsubishi out of service 30 cumulative days?
If you answered yes to any one of these questions, your Mitsubishi may be a lemon, qualifying you for compensation.
