the lemon law states that …
“…Most manufacturers use an arbitration system to resolve lemon law disputes, and you must notify them in writing if you think your vehicle is a lemon.
If you cannot settle your case through arbitration, consult with a lemon law attorney, as you may need to take the manufacturer to court…”
I can tell you about GM’s arbitration system. However , I have not filed a lemon law case…..yet…
Just to save you some time and headache, I have already been down this road with GM. After weeks of emails back and forth with GM corporate… they basically said… we can contact a GM dealer of your choosing to work on buying back the vehicle.” This sounds good at first, but basically all you’re doing is walking into the dealership and trading your truck in for whatever they offer. There’s no special incentive, no guaranteed cash offer, all big corporate GM is doing is just setting you up with an appointment and turning their heads. they’re just making it sound like on paper they are “helping“ or “buying back“ your truck. They aren’t. I pretty much told them, “no thanks.“ I can go to Carmax and do the same thing without months of emails to GM corporate. Either way, I’m gonna lose $$$.
I feel like the only way to get anything done through GM is if a lawyer contacts them on your behalf. Even then, who knows.
and then ur talking legal fees (which could probably be restituted ) , time in court, etc.
with today’s current vehicle values, I would probably just outright sell it. You’re guaranteed to make a profit.
if you’re going to do it though, I’d move quick. Most states, you only have 12 months or 12,000 miles to file a lemon law complaint.
