Volvo V90 Cross Country Lemon Law Eligibility and Coverage

Who is Covered Under the California Lemon Law?

Understanding How the California Lemon Law Affects Volvo V90 Cross Country Owners

The California Lemon Law provides significant protections for consumers who purchase or lease defective vehicles, including the Volvo V90 Cross Country.

This law mandates that if a vehicle cannot be repaired after a reasonable number of attempts, the manufacturer must either replace the vehicle or refund the purchase.

For Volvo V90 Cross Country owners, this means that any persistent issue that significantly impairs the use, value, or safety of the vehicle might qualify their vehicle as a lemon.

Criteria for Your Volvo V90 Cross Country to Qualify as a Lemon

In order for your Volvo V90 Cross Country to be covered under the California Lemon Law, it must meet certain criteria:

The vehicle is still under its manufacturer’s warranty.
You’ve given the manufacturer or its representative a reasonable number of attempts to fix the same issue.
The defect or condition is substantial and not caused by owner misuse or neglect.

Steps to Document Your Volvo V90 Cross Country’s Issues

Proper documentation is key to building a successful lemon law claim. Volvo V90 Cross Country owners should take the following steps:

Maintain Detailed Records: Keep all records of repair attempts, including invoices, repair orders, and communication with the dealer or manufacturer.
Document Problems: Note specifics of each problem, including when it occurs, under what conditions, and how it affects your driving experience.
Request Repair Orders: Each time your vehicle is in the shop, request and keep copies of repair orders that specify complaints and work completed.
Track Repair Attempts: Note each repair visit and the outcomes, including if the issue was adequately addressed or if it remains unresolved.
Communicate with Professionals: Share documented evidence with legal professionals like Lemon Law Associates of California for expert evaluation.

What Vehicles are Covered?

The California Lemon Law covers a diverse array of vehicles, ensuring that consumers are protected regardless of the type of vehicle they purchase or lease. This includes:

New vehicles purchased or leased in California
Recreational vehicles (RVs)
Vans
Trucks
Motorcycles
Certain business vehicles

To qualify, the vehicle must be registered in California within 12 months of its original delivery and must have a “non-conformity” that substantially impairs its use, value, or safety. This comprehensive coverage ensures that whether you’re driving a family car, a work truck, or an RV, you have legal recourse if your vehicle turns out to be a lemon.

Volvo V90 Cross Country FAQs

You’ve probably heard the term lemon discussed and know that you are protected under the California Lemon Law, but you might not know the exact details of the law. The California Lemon Law is actually a group of laws that fall under the umbrella of the Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act. When signed into law in 1970, the act required all manufacturers to repurchase or replace defective items which could not be repaired after a reasonable number of attempts. The California Lemon Law applies to many different consumer products, but it most often applies to vehicles. Song-Beverly doesn’t require a specific number of repair attempts for motor vehicles, but it provides the following criteria for determining whether a new vehicle is a lemon:

If the following occurs within 18 months of purchase or lease or before the vehicle has 18,000 miles on its odometer, the law presumes the vehicle is a lemon:

The manufacturer or its agents (typically a dealership) have tried to repair a dangerous or deadly warranty issue two or more times.
The manufacturer or dealership has tried to fix the same warranty issue four or more times.
The vehicle has spent an aggregate total of 30 days in the shop for warranty problems.
Warranty issues are not a result of abuse, and they substantially reduce the use, value, or safety of the vehicle to the owner.

The California Lemon Law also applies to used vehicles under warranty by the manufacturer or the dealer. If you suspect your vehicle is a lemon, your attorney will guide you through the process and advise you on what parts of the Lemon Law apply to your individual situation. The Lemon Law covers the following new and used vehicles sold or leased in California:

Cars, trucks, SUVs, and vans
The chassis, chassis cab, and drivetrain of an RV or motorhome
Dealer-owned vehicles and demo cars
Business vehicles
Personal vehicles

You aren’t required to have an attorney to make a California Lemon Law claim, but Volvo manufacturers and dealers are faster to respond if you do, and you are more likely to get a positive outcome if you have a lawyer in your corner. Here are some of the ways in which Lemon Law Associates of California can help you with your Volvo V90 Cross Country claim:

Deadlines. Filing a claim and handling communication with all of the involved parties during the process involves meeting many deadlines. Manufacturers will use missing these deadlines as grounds to deny your claim. We will make sure you meet any deadlines associated with your claim.
Eligibility. Not all defects are protected under the Lemon Law. Your attorney will verify your eligibility under California law.
Expertise. Our firm focuses exclusively on Lemon Law claims, so we have in-depth knowledge to answer your questions and guide you through the claims process.
Client service. We prioritize client service by providing exceptional representation and keeping you abreast of developments in your case. We also pride ourselves on our availability and accessibility.
Advocacy. We advocate for your rights against automakers and dealers to make sure that you secure justice.
Save time and money. You’ve already spent a great deal of money on a vehicle that is new to you. Dealing with a lemon costs additional time and money. In many cases, we can resolve your case quickly, without going to trial, so you can go about life as usual.

The California Lemon Law covers a wide range of vehicles, which includes all Volvo vehicles. The law applies to both new and used vehicles, as long as they are covered by a manufacturer’s warranty.

If your Lemon Law case is successful, you could be entitled to a refund of your purchase price or lease payments, a replacement vehicle, or another form of compensation. The specifics depend on the details of your case and the applicable laws.

Starting the process is easy. You can begin by contacting us through our website or by phone. Our team will review the details of your case, discuss your options, and guide you through the necessary steps to initiate your Lemon Law claim.

While it’s possible to pursue a Lemon Law claim without legal representation, manufacturers often have experienced legal teams on their side. Having a skilled Lemon Law attorney increases your chances of securing a favorable outcome and ensuring your rights are protected throughout the process.

Volvo Lemon-Law Attorneys With Experience

Lemon Law Associates of California specializes in helping consumers recover expenses or damages related to their Volvo and Volvo V90 Cross Country lemon vehicles under the Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act (Civil Code Section 1790 et seq.). A vehicle is considered a “Lemon” if a defect or “nonconformity” substantially impairs its use, value, and/or safety. This Act covers not only cars but also motorcycles if street legal, RV chassis, and motor homes’ propulsion parts.

If Volvo fails to repair the vehicle after a sufficient number of attempts, as determined by the type of problem and unique circumstances, the consumer may be eligible for a full buyback (repurchase) or a replacement of the lemon vehicle. Additionally, the Act offers a replacement remedy for other consumer goods like boats, travel trailers, or 5th wheels.
