Nissan Lemon Law Process
We pull your Nissan's repair orders, technical service bulletins, and warranty records, then evaluate whether the defect substantially impairs the vehicle. Nissan has paid significant settlements for CVT-related claims, and our attorneys know how to leverage that history when negotiating your case.
How to Know if Your Nissan is a Lemon
Common Nissan red flags include CVT shudder, hesitation, jerking, overheating transmission, surge or stall, complete transmission failure, electrical issues, and the infamous 'jerking under acceleration' problem. If you've returned to the dealer multiple times for the same issue, your Nissan may qualify as a lemon.
Is Your Nissan Eligible for a Lemon Law Buyback?
The vehicle must still be under the manufacturer's warranty at the time the defect is reported.
The defect must substantially impair the use, value, or safety of the vehicle.
The defect must have been subject to a reasonable number of repair attempts with no resolution.
The vehicle must have been out of service for more than 30 cumulative days due to repairs.
