The Lemon Law in New York

By Steven Q James

The lemon law in New York provides a remedy for customers that have had problems with their vehicles despite the number of times that these have been brought in for repairs. The manufacturer is also held liable if the car sold does not conform to the terms of the written warranty.

In New York, this covers new and used cars including "demos" under 4 conditions.

1. First, the car was covered by the manufacturer's new warranty at the time it was delivered to the owner.

2. The auto was purchased, leased or transferred within the first 18,000 miles or two years from the original date of delivery.

3. The car should be purchased, leased or transferred in New York and presently registered there.

4. The vehicle is primarily used for personal purposes. The definition of personal includes using the car to do household errands, drive to and from work. You can also use this for business and still be covered under the lemon law as long as personal use is predominant.

Just like the state of California, New York allows motor homes to be covered under this law except for the appliances, fixtures, systems and other parts that are residential in nature. Motor vehicles and off road vehicles are not covered. Leased cars are covered only if the lessee is responsible for the repairs.

If you suspect that your car is a lemon, you must immediately report this matter to the manufacturer or authorized dealer. Under the law, the notice given to the dealer is considered also a notice to the manufacturer.

During this time, the dealer has to conduct the necessary repairs. If they refuse to do so, another letter must be written and this time addressed to the manufacturer which must be completed within the next 20 days. If the problem is not repaired after reasonable attempts, the manufacturer or dealer has no choice but to refund the full purchase or offer a comparable replacement unit. The decision is up to the customer.

If you are getting a refund, this normally includes the price of the car, title and registration fees as well as any other governmental charges. There may be some deductions if the car has traveled more than 12,000 miles but less than that, there are none. Should the lemon car be leased, the refund is divided between you and the leasing company.

Those of you who choose to get a comparable replacement car should know that what you get in exchange for the lemon car is usually the same model and year as well as approximately the same mileage as the one being replaced.

But before a refund or a replacement car is given, you have the choice of participating in an arbitration program or suing the manufacturer and taking this matter to court. If the manufacturer has an arbitration procedure, you need to participate in this first. This consists of a hearing and a decision will be made after 10 days.

If you go to court, this will take some time but should you end up in winning, you can recover the amount you spend on attorney fees.

The lemon law of New York does not have a specific number of repair attempts but four instances within the span of two years is the ideal number. If this happens, you should just document it by keeping a copy of the work orders, repair bills and correspondence. - 21392

Things You Must Know Before Making a Compensation Claim

By David Halbert

In the world of today you are likely to come across situations where you are forced to bear heavy losses due to the negligence of someone else. Although this is not something new to man as throughout history man had to face incidents where he was forced to pay the price for the negligence of someone else. However, in the modern world equity and justice have laid roots for a system of law where no one is forced to bear the burden of someone else or pay for the negligence of someone else.

Compensation claims have made the contemporary world a better place for civilisation where impartiality and fairness prevails. Although there are factors which exercise these laws for their personal gains which might even be unfair, but still the basics and concepts show a good present and even a better prospect for man.

As mentioned earlier, many times people have to face situations where they have to pay the cost for someone else's carelessness. For example, if someone was involved in a car disaster and had to accept losses in terms of wound and monetary losses resulting from that mishap, and that too due to the negligence of some other person, then such a person can claim the payment of damages that he had to face due to the mistake of the other person.

This gives the facility of transferring the burden of losses on the person whose negligence caused the accident. You can claim for all sorts of compensations, for example, you can claim for compensation of income that you were unable to earn due to the injury caused as a result of the accident. Similarly, you can also claim for the payment of expenses you had to incur in frequent visits to the doctor due to the injury.

Claims can be made for any sort of injury caused due to the negligence of someone else. For example, if a factory worker gets injured due to the negligence of the factory owner for not taking proper work safety measures, then the worker can claim for loss of income as well as any other losses that might be caused due to that injury.

In road accidents, you can claim for imbursement of harm done to your property due to the mishap, or can claim for any loss incurred by you due to that accident, whether it be substantial or monetary. Most of the times the court grants these compensation claims and the careless individual has to pay for the loss caused to the other party due to his carelessness.

Similarly, production workers can claim damages from the supplier or production company if they experience from any injury that might outcome due to the carelessness of production Company or contractor.

Making compensation claims is not very difficult, however, for successful claims you need a good lawyer as well as a proof confirming that the loss was caused due to the negligence of the other person. Proof is perhaps the most important point in case of compensation claims, and without proof it is impossible to make a successful compensation claim. - 21392
