New Jersey lemon law FAQs

Real questions New Jersey consumers ask. Plain English answers.

Does the New Jersey lemon law cover used vehicles?+

N.J. Stat. § 56:12-29 (New Jersey Lemon Law) primarily covers new vehicles. The federal Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act (MMWA) frequently extends to used vehicles that came with any written warranty, manufacturer remaining warranty, certified pre-owned warranty, or a dealer's used-car warranty. We evaluate whether your case fits state law, federal MMWA, or both.

How many repair attempts does New Jersey require?+

New Jersey's statutory presumption: 3 repair attempts OR 20 days out of service in first 2 years / 24,000 miles. Federal MMWA does not set a fixed number, it requires a 'reasonable opportunity' for the manufacturer to repair, which is fact-specific.

Do I have to arbitrate before suing in New Jersey?+

New Jersey arbitration rules: New Jersey Division of Consumer Affairs Lemon Law Unit (state-run, consumer-favored). Federal MMWA claims generally do NOT require manufacturer-sponsored arbitration as a prerequisite to suit.

Who pays my attorney fees in a New Jersey lemon law case?+

Under federal MMWA, the manufacturer pays the consumer's reasonable attorney fees when the consumer prevails. N.J. Stat. § 56:12-29 (New Jersey Lemon Law) also typically allows fee recovery. Lemonaid Firm works on contingency, no fees out of your pocket.
