The Lemon Law (N.J.S.A 56:12-29 to 56:12-49) is a consumer protection law enacted to assist consumers when they purchase a new motor vehicle that develops repeated defects or lengthy unusable periods during the first two years or 18,000 miles, whichever comes first. The intent of the law is to require the manufacturer of a new motor vehicle to correct defects that are originally covered under the manufacturer's warranty and are identified and reported within a specific time period. The law also provides procedures to quickly resolve disputes between a consumer and a manufacturer and specific remedies when the uncorrected defect substantially impairs the use, value or safety of the new vehicle.  \nQ: To whom does the New Jersey Lemon Law apply? The Lemon Law applies to anyone who buys, leases, or registers a new car or motorcycle in New Jersey. The consumer is protected for two years after the original delivery date of the vehicle, or for the first 18,000 miles, whichever comes first. If the vehicle is transferred to someone else during this two-year/18,000-mile period, that owner or the person leasing the vehicle is also covered under the Lemon Law.  \nQ: What is not covered by the New Jersey Lemon Law? The Lemon Law does not cover vehicles registered for commercial purposes, living quarters of motor homes, defects caused by accidents, vandalism, abuse or neglect, or defects caused by an attempt to repair or modify the vehicle by anyone other than the manufacturer, its agent or an authorized dealer.  \nQ: Is your vehicle a lemon? A new motor vehicle is presumed to be a lemon ifit has one or more defects that continue to exist after three attempts at repairs, or after the vehicle has been out of service for a total of 20 cumulative calendar days. To qualify under the Lemon Law, the defect must substantially impair the use, value or safety of the vehicle.  \nQ: How do I get my vehicle repaired? You should report any defect or condition to the manufacturer or dealer immediately. Keep all receipts of repair attempts and a complete record of all contact with the manufacturer and dealer. You have the right to receive a dated, detailed statement each time the vehicle is brought in for repair. The statement should include any charges for parts and labor, a general description of the problem, the date the vehicle was brought in for repair, date the vehicle was picked up, all work performed, the odometer reading at the time you brought the vehicle in for repair, as well as when it is picked up.  \nQ: Who pays for the repairs? Most manufacturers' warranties on purchased vehicles cover repairs for at least the first year following the original delivery date or the first 12,000 miles, whichever comes first. If repairs are needed after your warranty has ended, you must pay for the repairs. Check your warranty booklet to find out the details of your particular coverage. If you do pay repair costs, you may be entitled to recover the costs if the  \nvehicle is later proven to be a \"lemon\" under the law. If you are leasing a vehicle, check your leasing contract to find out who is responsible for repair bills.  \nQ: How long should the repair take? The Lemon Law allows the manufacturer a reasonable amount of time to repair the defect. A reasonable amount of time is three repair attempts for the same defect or a total of 20 cumulative days out of service because of one or more defects or repairs.  \nQ: Under the Lemon Law, must I send the manufacturer a letter? Before you can file a claim with the Division of Consumer Affairs, you must give the manufacturer one final chance to repair the defect. You must send a letter to the manufacturer (not the dealer) by certified mail, return receipt requested, stating that you may have a claim and","cbCaig7E9R5isYx0","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaig7E9R5isYx0","pdf",149668,"English","# LEMON LAW\n## Eligibility and coverage\n## What is not covered\n## When a vehicle is presumed a lemon\n## Repair process and documentation\n## Costs, timelines, and final repair letter\n## Remedies if final repair fails","[{\"question\":\"What is the Lemon Law in New Jersey and what is it meant to do?\",\"answer\":\"It is a consumer protection law requiring manufacturers to correct defects covered by the manufacturer’s warranty when defects are identified and reported within the required time period.
