Why Lemon Laws were Enacted
Until the passage of Lemon Laws in the United States, it was nearly impossible for a consumer to force an automobile manufacturer to replace a defective or unsafe vehicle. Auto manufacturers would just have their dealers repair the offending vehicle again and again, or worse yet, just tell the customer “they are all like that” or that the problem “could not be duplicated.” The enactment of Lemon Laws forced the manufacturers to take responsibility for their vehicles that turned out to be “lemons”.
