What is the Ohio Lemon Law

The Ohio Lemon Law specifically protects consumers of defective motor vehicles that have warrantable defects that “substantially” impair your use, value, or safety; and have been subjected to an “unreasonable” number of repair attempts, and that the problem was reported within a specified time period after the original in service date.

What Vehicles Qualify?

1. A defect or nonconformity that “substantially” impairs a consumer’s use, value, or safety.
  • must be reported within the first year or 18,000 miles from the original in service date
2. Must have been subjected to an “unreasonable” number of repair attempts
  • vehicle was out of service at least 30 days
  • was subjected to three or more repair attempts for the same problem or eight or more total repair visits;
  • there was an issue that was likely to cause death or serious bodily injury and the issue continues after even one repair attempt.

What Our Clients Think

Bo asked me how much of a settlement I wanted. Having not done this before, I asked what he thought. He gave me a number that he would fight for. A few weeks later, I received an email saying that my settlement was nearly double that amount!
Zach H.
My experience with Bo was exceptional. He is prompt, thorough and a true professional Bo advocated for me beyond expectations and continued to fight for me through an agreeable settlement. Bo kept me informed on the process every step of the way. Will definitely use Bo going forward!
SCOTT
He did an amazing job helping me with getting rid of my lemon (ford focus 2015). He worked with the BBB and Ford to get everything done and for them to pay off the loan and give me what I paid on the car. He made a stressful time easier due to keeping in constant contact with me and keeping on the BBB and Ford to do right by me and take back my lemon. I had a great experience working with him.

OHIO FAQ'S

Does Ohio’s lemon law cover RVs or motorcycles?

Yes, Ohio’s Lemon law can apply to motorcycles and “other noncommercial motor vehicles” so long as they are designed to carry no more than a one ton load and are used exclusively for personal use; and as such RVs would indeed be covered as well.

What is the statute of limitations for filing a lemon law claim in Ohio?

In Ohio, a formal complaint must be filed in court within 5 years from the date of purchase. Other statutes have shorter time frames (such as the Consumer Sales Practices Act and the Magnuson Moss Warranty Act) so it’s best not to delay contacting an attorney. The sooner someone acts, the higher the likelihood that a Lemon Law attorney can help.

How does Ohio’s lemon law handle used cars?

Uniquely, Ohio’s Lemon Law is not limited to new cars. If a vehicle is purchased with low mileage and then second owner still reports the first problem within the first year or 18,000 miles from the original in service date, the Lemon Law still applies. If it is purchased after that time period, the Ohio Lemon Law may not apply, but other consumer protection statutes still very well may provide for compensation. Even if you purchased a vehicle after these parameters expired, you should still call for a free consultation as your case may still be quite valuable!
