How your Ohio claim gets built

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

Dublin Lemon Law

Dublin Lemon Law Basics

The law that applies in Dublin is Ohio's lemon law, Ohio Rev. Code §1345.71 to §1345.77, and it covers new motor vehicles purchased or leased in Ohio for personal, family, or household use (passenger cars, noncommercial motor vehicles). 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 Ohio Lemon Law Attorneys page.

Document Your Repairs

Keep every repair order from your Dublin dealership, even the short ones. OH lemon law needs written proof of each repair attempt, and those papers are the proof.

Free Case Evaluation

We read your repair history against the Ohio 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, including any written notice to the manufacturer that OH law requires. We deal with the manufacturer for you.

You Get Compensated

The case ends with a refund, a replacement vehicle or a cash settlement. There are no attorney's fees unless we recover for you.

Ohio Rev. Code §1345.71 to §1345.77

Is Your Dublin Car a Lemon? Ohio's 3-Step Test

Does the Defect Substantially Impair Use, Value, or Safety?

Under Ohio law, the defect has to substantially impair the vehicle's use, value, or safety. These defects came up in one of Easy Lemon's own Ohio cases:

⚠️2025 Kia Sorento: Day-one no-start with check engine light
⚠️2025 Kia Sorento: HPCU assembly failure
⚠️2025 Kia Sorento: Fuel rail pressure sensor failure
⚠️2025 Kia Sorento: Original main battery failure

Have You Met the Repair Attempt Threshold?

In Ohio 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 Ohio the deadline is 5 years from original delivery (defects must first be reported within 1 year or 18,000 miles, whichever is earlier). 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.

Ohio trial courts

Court and Venue in Dublin

Parts of Dublin lie in Delaware County, Franklin County and Union County, per the 2020 Census. Their general civil trial courts are the Delaware County Court of Common Pleas, General Division, the Franklin County Court of Common Pleas, General Division and the Union County Court of Common Pleas, General Division. Ohio 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 Ohio lemon law is Ohio Rev. Code §1345.71 to §1345.77. If the manufacturer's arbitration program is state-certified, the consumer must use it.

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). Under the statute, a consumer who prevails can recover attorney fees from the manufacturer.

What the Statute Says

Ohio Lemon Law: The Rules That Decide a Dublin Claim

Some Ohio rules sit outside the repair test, the arbitration rule and the deadline, which you can find under Court and Venue above. Those other rules are here.

Notable provisions of Ohio Lemon Law

Ohio requires only 3 repair attempts, or 1 where the nonconformity results in a condition likely to cause death or serious bodily injury if the vehicle is driven. Eight or more attempts to repair any nonconformity also raises the presumption. Covers the first year/18,000 miles. The consumer must report the nonconformity within that period; the chapter prescribes no certified-mail and no final-repair-attempt requirement.

Your Rights Under OH Law

What The Manufacturer Owes You

The Ohio statute provides for replacement vehicle or full refund (minus reasonable use offset), and a qualifying OH case from Dublin usually ends in one of these three ways.

Refund

You hand back the car. In return the manufacturer repays the price, the taxes, the registration fees and the finance charges, with a reasonable use offset taken out.

Replacement Vehicle

You leave with a comparable new car. The manufacturer pays for the swap.

Cash Settlement

You keep the car, and the manufacturer pays you for the value the defect took off it. This result is not listed in the statute and comes from negotiation.

Have Questions?

Frequently Asked Questions

The answers below are based on Ohio law and on the paperwork Dublin drivers usually send us.

PROCESS & TIMELINE

Most of the Ohio cases we handle settle at the written-demand stage, without a lawsuit. How long that takes depends on your repair history and on the manufacturer. The Ohio filing deadline is within 5 years from original delivery (defects must first be reported within 1 year or 18,000 miles, whichever is earlier).

ELIGIBILITY

Ohio Rev. Code §1345.71 to §1345.77 covers new motor vehicles purchased or leased in Ohio for personal, family, or household use (passenger cars, noncommercial motor vehicles). If you bought used, send the paperwork anyway, including any written warranty that came with the car.

REMEDIES

Ohio Rev. Code §1345.71 to §1345.77 provides for replacement vehicle or full refund (minus reasonable use offset). Which one you get depends on your repair history and on what the manufacturer offers.

In Ohio, the manufacturer pays the consumer's attorney's fees when the consumer wins. We work on contingency, so you pay nothing upfront and there is no attorney's fee unless we recover for you. When a manufacturer settles or loses, we ask it to pay our fee on top of your recovery. The federal Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act (15 U.S.C. §2310(d)) adds a second fee-shifting route when a written warranty is breached. Our fee agreement is one page.

ATTORNEY & TRUST

Nothing upfront, and no attorney's fee unless we recover for you. In Ohio, the manufacturer pays the consumer's attorney's fees when the consumer wins. In most successful Ohio claims, the manufacturer pays our fee. Repair orders are free from the dealer. We pay the filing costs while the case is open. To start, send us the repair orders for a free case review.

You will have one assigned attorney and a direct line. You get a copy of every letter we send and a note whenever the manufacturer responds. We first check your repair history against Ohio Rev. Code §1345.71 to §1345.77. Then written notice goes to the manufacturer, and we demand the statutory remedy, replacement vehicle or full refund (minus reasonable use offset). Most cases settle at that stage. If a case does not settle, we take the next formal step that Ohio law requires.

Client Testimonials

What Our Clients Are Saying

Easy Lemon has handled 3,000+ lemon law cases^‡.

“My Ram 2500's check engine light came on for the same evap code four times in six months. Dealer kept replacing gas caps, sensors, the whole runaround. Light would stay off for a week then pop back on. I was so tired of seeing that orange glow on my dash every morning. Called Easy Lemon and they took my service records and ran with it. Four months later, Ram sent a settlement check. No more anxiety every time I start the truck.”

“I had an excellent experience with Easylemon! They went above and beyond to help me return my car and successfully recover my money. The whole process could have been stressful, but their team handled everything professionally, efficiently, and with great attention to detail.

I truly appreciate their support, transparency, and dedication throughout the entire process. They kept me informed and made sure my rights were protected every step of the way.

If you’re ever in a similar situation, I highly recommend Easylemon. They really know what they’re doing and genuinely care about their clients.

Thank you again for your outstanding help!”
