How your West Virginia claim gets built
Our lemon law work is directed by Steven P. Nassi, Esq., Managing Partner, Easy Lemon by RockPoint Law P.C. A West Virginia claim gets built on two things: the West Virginia 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.

Clarksburg Lemon Law Basics
A Clarksburg car is judged against West Virginia's statute, W. Va. Code §46A-6A-1 to §46A-6A-9, and that law covers new motor vehicles purchased or leased in West Virginia for personal, family, or household use. So the first question is coverage, and the second is whether your repair orders reach one of the repair limits in the box above. If they do, and the defect is still there and the deadline has not run out, you may have a claim. The statute text, the filing deadlines and how used cars are treated are all on our West Virginia Lemon Law Attorneys page.

Is Your Clarksburg Car a Lemon? West Virginia's 3-Step Test
Does the Defect Substantially Impair Use, Value, or Safety?
Under West Virginia law, the defect has to substantially impair the vehicle's use, value, or safety.
Have You Met the Repair Attempt Threshold?
In West Virginia the test is 3 repair attempts for the same defect (or 1 for serious safety defects), or 30 cumulative calendar days out of service, as long as the claim is brought within the deadline in step 3. For a defect that could cause serious bodily injury or death, 1 repair attempt is enough. Count the visits on your repair orders to see where you stand.
Did It Happen Within the Rights Period?
In West Virginia the deadline is 1 year of the expiration of the express warranty term. We check it 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 are past the deadline, call us anyway. We may still be able to help.
Court and Venue in Clarksburg
Clarksburg is in Harrison County. Harrison County's general civil trial court is the Circuit Court of Harrison County, part of the Nineteenth Judicial Circuit. West Virginia also has a lower court for smaller civil claims, so the amount in dispute can change where a case is filed. Which court hears a particular case still depends on its facts, the warranty issues involved and the law it is brought under.
The West Virginia lemon law is W. Va. Code §46A-6A-1 to §46A-6A-9. If the manufacturer's arbitration program is state-certified, the consumer must complete it first.
The repair test in the statute is 3 repair attempts for the same defect (or 1 for serious safety defects), or 30 cumulative calendar days with the vehicle out of service. The statutory remedy is a replacement vehicle or full refund (minus reasonable use offset). A consumer who prevails may recover attorney fees.
Open recalls on your vehicle can be checked against NHTSA records at easylemon.com/recalls. A recall alone is not a lemon law claim.

What The Manufacturer Owes You
West Virginia law provides for replacement vehicle or full refund (minus reasonable use offset). There are three ways a qualifying case from Clarksburg usually ends under WV law.
Refund
Give the car back and the manufacturer repays the price you paid, with the taxes, registration fees and finance charges. A reasonable use offset comes off that amount.
Replacement Vehicle
The manufacturer hands you a comparable new car and pays the cost of the exchange.
Cash Settlement
The car stays yours and the manufacturer pays for the value the defect took off it. You will not find this option in the statute. It is reached by negotiation.
