Do You Qualify?
Four questions will help you find out in about a minute.
You Likely Qualify!
Your answers meet the basic lemon law test. Before anyone can confirm that your car qualifies, an attorney has to see the repair orders. We work on a contingency basis, and there are no attorney’s fees unless we recover for you.
You May Not Qualify Under Standard Lemon Law
The standard lemon law test does not seem to fit. Other consumer protection laws may still help with a car like yours. Contact us anyway.

How your Maine claim gets built
Our lemon law work is directed by Steven P. Nassi, Esq., Managing Partner, Easy Lemon by RockPoint Law P.C. A Maine claim gets built on two things: the Maine lemon law statute, and the federal Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, which applies in all fifty states. Send the repair orders and the purchase or lease paperwork, and we can tell you which of the two fits your vehicle.

Auburn Lemon Law Basics
The law that applies in Auburn is Maine's lemon law, Me. Rev. Stat. tit. 10, §1161 to §1169, and it covers new motor vehicles purchased or leased in Maine, including the chassis of motor homes. You may have a claim if your repair orders reach one of the repair limits in the box above while the defect is still there and you are inside the deadline. The statute text, the filing deadlines and the rules on used cars are on our Maine Lemon Law Attorneys page.

Free Case Evaluation
We read your repair history against the Maine statute and tell you whether the car qualifies. The review costs nothing, and there are no attorney's fees unless we recover for you.
We File the Claim
We write and send the paperwork. We deal with the manufacturer for you.
You Get Compensated
A successful case usually ends with a refund, a replacement vehicle or a cash settlement. There are no attorney's fees unless we recover for you.
Is Your Auburn Car a Lemon? Maine's 3-Step Test
Does the Defect Substantially Impair Use, Value, or Safety?
Under Maine law, the defect has to substantially impair the vehicle's use, value, or safety.
Have You Met the Repair Attempt Threshold?
In Maine the test is 3 repair attempts for the same defect or a reasonable number of attempts, or 15 cumulative business days out of service, as long as the claim is brought within the deadline in step 3. Count the visits on your repair orders to see where you stand.
Did It Happen Within the Rights Period?
In Maine, you must request state arbitration within 3 years from original delivery or the express warranty term, whichever comes first. We check that deadline against the delivery date on your contract and the dates on your repair orders.
If you are not sure about your dates, call us. The consultation is free. 📞 (855) 435-3666
If you think you are past a deadline, call us anyway. We may still be able to help.
Court and Venue in Auburn
Auburn is in Androscoggin County. Androscoggin County's general civil trial court is the Androscoggin County Superior Court. Which court hears a particular case still depends on its facts, the warranty issues involved and the law it is brought under.
The Maine lemon law is Me. Rev. Stat. tit. 10, §1161 to §1169. The claim must go through the Maine Motor Vehicle Arbitration Board, which the state administers.
The repair test in the statute is 3 repair attempts for the same defect (or a reasonable number of attempts), or 15 cumulative business days with the vehicle out of service. The statutory remedy is a replacement vehicle or a full refund, minus a reasonable offset for use. The court may award a consumer who prevails reasonable attorney fees and costs, and it must award them when the consumer prevails on an appeal of a state arbitration decision.
Open recalls on your vehicle can be checked against NHTSA records at easylemon.com/recalls. A recall alone is not a lemon law claim.

Maine Lemon Law: The Rules That Decide an Auburn Claim
Looking for the repair test or the arbitration rule? Those are under Court and Venue above. Maine law has a few more rules, and they are listed here.
Notable provisions of Maine Lemon Law
Maine counts only 15 business days out of service, and you have up to 3 years from delivery (or the warranty term, if that ends first) to request state arbitration. Arbitration is state-run, not manufacturer-run, and the law also covers the chassis of motor homes.
