Ohio Lemon Law

Ohio Lemon Laws and the federal Lemon Law (the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act) provide for compensation to Ohio consumers of defective automobiles and trucks  and other vehicles and products including motorcycles, RV's, boats, computers and other consumer appliances and products. To qualify under the Ohio Lemon Law or the federal Lemon Law, you must generally have a product that suffered multiple repair attempts under the manufacturer's factory warranty. Lemon Law compensation can include a refund, replacement or cash compensation. The following comments briefly explain the Ohio Lemon Law and how it applies to you.
This message is not a substitute for contacting a lawyer who can best advise you of your rights. If you think you qualify for a Lemon Law,click here for a free Ohio Lemon Law case review or for an immediate evaluation, simply fax your repair records to 866-773-6152. An experienced Lemon Law attorney will personally review your inquiry and records and quickly contact you for a free consultation.

Lemon Law

Ohio legislators passed one of the most comprehensive lemon laws in the nation in 1987. It requires automakers to repair defects that affect the use, value, or safety of a new motor vehicle within the first 12 months or 18,000 miles (whichever comes first). If you are having problems with your NEW purchased or leased vehicle, you should immediately take it to an authorized dealer for repair.
The automaker or dealer must be given a reasonable opportunity to fix the problem, and if the problem is not corrected, you might be eligible for a refund or replacement. You are covered by this law even if the problem was discovered late in the protection period and the repair attempts extend beyond one year or 18,000 miles. Failure to comply with Ohio's Lemon Law is a violation of Ohio's Consumer Sales Practices Act.

What Is a Lemon?

A lemon is a motor vehicle that has a problem or problems, covered by the warranty, that substantially impairs the use, value, or safety of that vehicle. If you have had problems within the first year or 18,000 miles with your passenger car, light truck (no more than one ton load capacity and not used in business), or motorcycle, you should take it back to the manufacturer or the dealer and ask them to fix it. If they fail to correct the problem(s) after being given a reasonable opportunity to do so, you might own a lemon.

Has the Manufacturer Had a Reasonable Opportunity to Repair the Vehicle?

If you can answer "yes'' to any of the following four questions. the manufacturer is presumed to have had a reasonable opportunity to repair your vehicle under Ohio law.

1. Have three or more attempts been made to repair one problem and then the problem occurs again?
   
2. Has the vehicle been in the shop for 30 days or more during its first year or 18.000 miles?
   
3. Have eight or more attempts been made to fix different problems that impair the use, value or safety of the vehicle?
   
4. Has one unsuccessful attempt been made to fix a problem that could cause death or serious injury?

If you answered "yes" to at least one of these four questions, you have the legal right to ask the manufacturer to replace the lemon or refund the entire purchase price.
Send a certified letter to the automaker's "Zone Office". You can find the address in your owner's manual, or ask your auto dealer. In the letter, list the problems you've had with the car, and what attempts have been made to correct them. Finally, your letter should indicate whether you want the car replaced or the refund for your full purchase price. Be sure to keep a photocopy of your letter for your records. Claims must be brought within five years of the date of the original delivery of the motor vehicle.

Will the Manufacturer Refund the Full Purchase Price of the Vehicle?

Once it is clear that your vehicle has not been fixed, the automaker must, at your option, give you a new vehicle or refund the "full purchase price". That price includes all of the following:

• The price for the car plus the costs for transportation, dealer preparation, delivery, dealer installed accessories, and other services.
• The costs for financing and credit insurance, as well as any warranty and service charges.
• Taxes and any other government charges, including state sales tax, license fees and registration fees.

Sometimes an automaker will agree with your claim and work to replace your lemon as quickly as possible. In most cases, the manufacturer will request an additional opportunity to repair the vehicle. They may try to negotiate a mutually satisfactory resolution with you. The manufacturer or dealer should advise you about an arbitration program available to informally resolve disputes. If you apply for arbitration, you should expect to wait several weeks for your hearing to be scheduled. Informal arbitration is, however, much faster and less formal than a court proceeding.

What Is Arbitration?

Arbitration allows a neutral third party to make a decision about your case based on the merits of the claim. The Attorney General's Office has rules for approval of arbitration programs that are intended to ensure a their and timely resolution to the dispute.
All automakers participate in some kind of arbitration program. Some of these have been approved by the Attorney General, but others have not. If a program has been approved by the Attorney General, you must go through arbitration before you have the right to file a lawsuit. Contact the Attorney General's Consumer Protection Section to learn which manufacturers have approved arbitration programs.
You can find information from your dealer or with the warranty materials explaining how to apply for arbitration. For approved arbitration programs, you have the right to request an oral hearing of your case. These hearings are frequently conducted by telephone conference call for the convenience of all parties.
Whether the arbitration program has been approved or not, decisions reached through arbitration are not binding on the consumer.

Should I Take My Case to Court?

If the automaker does not have an arbitration program approved by the Attorney General, or if you are unhappy with the outcome of the arbitration, you may want to take your case to court. You can file a civil suit to recover the total cost of the vehicle and any attorney's fees you have incurred.

What Are the Responsibilities of the Manufacturer and the Dealer?

Manufacturers and dealers are required to provide more information to consumers than ever before. Manufacturers must provide this written statement to every new car buyer to inform you of your legal rights under Ohio's Lemon Law.

IMPORTANT: If this vehicle is defective, you may be entitled under state law to a replacement or to compensation.

Dealers are required to give you a fully itemized, written work order each time you take your vehicle in for repairs or services even if the work is paid for under the manufacturer's warranty. Work orders must list all the work performed, what parts were used, and the cost for parts and labor.

Is There Protection for Used Car Buyers?

If you are looking at buying a used car, keep in mind that Ohio's Lemon Law does not apply to motor vehicles more than one year old or driven more than 18,000 miles.
Also keep in mind that lemons returned to the manufacturer or dealer can be resold to consumers only under certain conditions. A used car dealer must give you the following statement to read and sign before selling you a returned lemon.

IMPORTANT: This vehicle was returned to the manufacturer because it did not conform to the manufacturer's express warranty and the nonconformity was not cured within a reasonable amount of time as provided by Ohio law.

The automaker must give you at least a 12 month, 12,000 mile warranty that offers the same coverage as the original new car warranty.
The notice and warranty are required even if the car was returned as a lemon under the law of another state. The notice and warranty serve as your warning that you are buying a vehicle returned as a lemon.
In addition, manufacturers must obtain certificate of titles for returned lemons that include the following disclosure:

BUYBACK: THIS VEHICLE WAS RETURNED TO THE MANUFACTURER BECAUSE IT MAY NOT HAVE CONFORMED TO ITS WARRANTY.

Do I Have the Same Protection as a New Car Buyer?

A returned lemon buyer is NOT entitled to the same legal protection as a new car buyer. You are provided only with the fair warning notice and warranty protection described above.
If an automaker or its authorized dealer sells a returned lemon as a used vehicle without giving you the notice and the warranty, it could be a violation of the Consumer Sales Practices Act. If this is the case, Attorney General Montgomery can file a legal action against the automaker or its dealer for a refund of the purchase price and seek a civil penalty. You also have the right to file your own lawsuit to recover your money.

Any vehicle returned to the automaker for a problem that could cause death or serious injury may not be sold in the State of Ohio.

How Can I Protect Myself?

If you buy a new vehicle, please take the following precautions just in case it turns out to be a lemon. It will cost you nothing if you do. It could cost you thousands if you don't.

Your best protection is good record keeping and an accurate maintenance history.
Keep all warranty and repair orders. Each order should contain a fully itemized list of repairs, show what the repairs cost, and include the length the car was in the shop. (Check every work order you receive to make sure it includes all the information, even if the work was done under warranty.
Write down your vehicle's problems and defects. Give a copy of the list to the service person at the dealership. Any recurring problems should be described the same way each time you take the car back.
File repair records in the order they were received. Your files also should contain copies of all documents, repair orders, receipts, and other written information you have used to explain the problem to the service person.
Read and understand your owner's manual. Follow the maintenance requirements. If the manufacturer can show that you have not maintained your car properly, you might not be eligible for a refund or replacement.

Adverse Credit Remortgage Explained

February 15th, 2010

An adverse credit remortgage is a home mortgage which has been specifically developed for those people with bad credit. It is usually obtained to pay an existing mortgage in full, but in addition may be utilized to get funds for other purposes, such as to make repairs, or to enhance one’s equity in the home. The banks that will assist those with bad or adverse credit usually do not provide adverse credit remortgage terms which are equal to those terms that they offer on normal remortgages, something of which you need to be cognizant.
A remortgage is considered to be a second home loan which is obtained from a new lender, utilizing the same property as collateral, which differentiates it from a customary refinance, which may just involve the restructuring of terms with the present lender. In obtaining a remortgage, the borrower is generally required to pay the original loan in full. Because the property frequently has appreciated, the borrower may take out additional cash which could be repaid right away, be used to perform improvements, or be utilized for various other purposes, dependent upon need. Adverse credit is a descriptive phrase for people with a blemished credit history. Borrowers with bad credit will frequently have to accept mortgage loans with terms which are quite restrictive.
Obtaining an adverse credit remortgage would permit the payment in full of the old mortgage carrying the bad terms, and give them a home loan with a reduced interest rate along with other advantages. As the mortgage is repaid, there will be an improvement in their credit record, which in turn will give them potential access to consumer credit in general.
Adverse credit remortgages will typically carry a higher rate of interest than a normal remortgage products, due to the increased risk which the lender is accepting. But the advantages may include obtaining a fixed rate of interest, which will decrease the monthly payment, or satisfying a mortgage with negative amortization prior to the due date of a balloon payment. Further, borrowers may benefit from adverse credit remortgages which provide funding to accomplish improvements which may enhance the value of the property.
During the process of applying for an adverse credit remortgage, borrowers must be prepared for an inspection of their home, wherein an assessment is made of its current value and its actual condition. They will also be required to accumulate various financial documentation for the lender’s assessment of their loan request during the approval process.
It must also be noted that the processing of the request may take a month or longer, and should the property owner have skipped payments or be in foreclosure proceedings, the lender may not be in a position to negotiate an adverse credit remortgage.

Remortgage With Adverse Credit

February 12th, 2010

What do you do to remortgage when you have bad credit? The adverse credit remortgage is just what you are looking for. Adverse credit remortgages are structured to accommodate people with problems in their credit history. While numerous lenders may decline to become involved with those having bad credit, others will employ the adverse credit remortgage as a means of assisting people in this situation.
It could be difficult to locate the proper lender, but with the advent of the Internet, you have a convenient tool to assist in the search of financial providers which are amenable to aiding those who have low credit ratings. Of course, you need to research the lender and take advantage of remortgage calculators to properly evaluate the expenses you would incur versus the anticipated benefits.
So, how does an adverse credit remortgage positively impact your credit score? Your credit is enhanced by changing to a new lender, which allows your old lender to be paid in full and closes your account there. You can then begin anew with the new lender. Since rates of interest are presently low, it is likely that you can obtain a reduced rate on the adverse credit remortgage, which in turn will create a payment lower than what was required on your old mortgage.
An additional measure to reduce the monthly payment is to extend the life of the mortgage. Should your existing mortgage have been for a thirty year term originally and you have been paying for twelve years, you will have reduced the principal balance. Now, should your remortgage be for a term of thirty years, the reduced principal, being amortized for the longer term, will carry a payment which is not as high. The reduced payment should assist in your being able to make it when due, which, over time, will result in a better credit rating. So, should you be dealing with a bad credit rating, you need to consider an adverse credit remortgage as a means of re-establishing a solid financial foundation.
