Consider Hiring an Attorney Experienced With the Wisconsin Lemon Law
If you think you have purchased or leased a defective new car, motorcycle, truck, semi-truck or motorhome anywhere throughout Wisconsin, you may be entitled to significant compensation. Under the Wisconsin lemon law, the manufacturer is required to pay the consumer's attorney's fees if the consumer prevails. You may have purchased a lemon if the following conditions are present:
- Your new vehicle was purchased or leased from a Wisconsin dealer
- During your warranty period and within the first year, the vehicle developed a problem that impaired its use, lowered its value or compromised its safety
- The dealer has been unable to repair the defect in four tries; or the vehicle has been unavailable to you for 30 days or more during your first year of ownership
It is extremely important to document the nature of the defect and your attempts to have it repaired. Be sure to get and keep a repair order for every visit you make to the dealership. Keep copies of your contract, warranty and repair orders in a safe location. Many people make the mistake of keeping important documents in their car, where they may be misplaced.
