How your Colorado claim gets built

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

Is Your Fort Collins Car a Lemon? Colorado's 3-Step Test

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

Under Colorado law, the defect has to substantially impair the vehicle's use, value, or safety.

Have You Met the Repair Attempt Threshold?

In Colorado the test is 3 repair attempts for the same defect (or 2 for a safety-based defect; 4 attempts for vehicles bought or leased before Aug 7, 2024), or 24 cumulative business days (30 for vehicles bought or leased before Aug 7, 2024) 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, 2 repair attempts are enough. Count the visits on your repair orders to see where you stand.

Did It Happen Within the Rights Period?

In Colorado the deadline is 30 months from the date of original delivery (for vehicles bought or leased before Aug 7, 2024: within 6 months after the warranty term expires or 1 year from delivery, 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.

Larimer County

Court and Venue in Fort Collins

Fort Collins is in Larimer County. Larimer County's general civil trial court is the District Court, Larimer County, part of the 8th Judicial District. Colorado 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 Colorado lemon law is Colo. Rev. Stat. §42-10-101 to §42-10-107. If the manufacturer has a dispute program that follows federal FTC rules, the consumer must use it first.

The repair test in the statute is 3 repair attempts for the same defect (or 2 for a safety-based defect; 4 attempts for vehicles bought or leased before Aug 7, 2024), or 24 cumulative business days (30 for vehicles bought or leased before Aug 7, 2024) with the vehicle out of service. The statutory remedy is a replacement vehicle or full refund (minus reasonable use offset). Fees run both ways: the court awards reasonable attorney fees to the side that prevails, consumer or manufacturer.

What the Statute Says

Colorado Automotive Industry Consumer Protection Act (Lemon Law): The Rules That Decide a Fort Collins Claim

If you have read Court and Venue above, you already have the repair test, the arbitration rule and the deadline. Colorado law adds a few rules on top of those, and they follow.

Notable provisions of Colorado Automotive Industry Consumer Protection Act (Lemon Law)

Uses "business days" for the out-of-service calculation. For vehicles bought or leased on or after Aug 7, 2024, coverage runs 2 years or 24,000 miles from delivery, whichever comes first; for earlier vehicles it runs to the end of the warranty term or the first year from delivery, whichever comes first. Written notification by certified mail to the manufacturer is required before the presumption applies.

Your Rights Under CO Law

What The Manufacturer Owes You

Under the statute, the remedies open to Colorado drivers are replacement vehicle or full refund (minus reasonable use offset). If your Fort Collins car qualifies under CO law, the case usually ends in one of the three ways below.

Refund

You return the car and the manufacturer pays back the price, taxes, registration fees and finance charges, minus a reasonable use offset.

Replacement Vehicle

The manufacturer replaces the car with a comparable new one at its own cost.

Cash Settlement

You keep the car and receive a payment for its lost value. That payment is negotiated. The statute does not list it.

Have Questions?

Frequently Asked Questions

The answers below are based on Colorado law and on the paperwork Fort Collins drivers usually send us.

PROCESS & TIMELINE

Most of the Colorado 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 Colorado filing deadline is within 30 months from the date of original delivery (for vehicles bought or leased before Aug 7, 2024: within 6 months after the warranty term expires or 1 year from delivery, whichever is earlier).

Bring the repair orders from your Fort Collins dealer, your purchase or lease contract and your warranty booklet. Of the three, the repair orders carry the case. Each one shows the date, the mileage and what the service department did or did not fix. If a few are missing, ask the service desk for copies.

ELIGIBILITY

It may. Under Colo. Rev. Stat. §42-10-101 to §42-10-107, your Fort Collins car can qualify if a defect covered by the warranty is still there after 3 repair attempts for the same defect (or 2 for a safety-based defect; 4 attempts for vehicles bought or leased before Aug 7, 2024), or 24 cumulative business days (30 for vehicles bought or leased before Aug 7, 2024) out of service. The statute covers new motor vehicles purchased or leased in Colorado, used primarily for personal, family, or household purposes (passenger vehicles, pickups and vans carrying up to 10 people; motor homes excluded).

REMEDIES

In Colorado, the court awards reasonable attorney's fees to the side that wins, consumer or manufacturer. 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 Colorado, the court awards reasonable attorney's fees to the side that wins, consumer or manufacturer. In most successful Colorado 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 Colo. Rev. Stat. §42-10-101 to §42-10-107. 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 Colorado law requires.

Client Testimonials

What Our Clients Are Saying

Easy Lemon has handled 1,500+ lemon law matters^‡.

“Wasn't sure I had a case because my problem seemed small. But it was constant. Same thing over and over. The service manager started avoiding me. Called Easy Lemon just to see. They said send your records. I did. Next thing I know, the manufacturer is offering a settlement. Not small at all. Glad I didn't talk myself out of calling.”

“My Dodge Challenger's fuel gauge would read empty when the tank was full. Dealer replaced the sending unit, then the whole fuel pump assembly. Same problem. I ran out of gas twice because I thought I had fuel. Stupid design. Called Easy Lemon and they said a safety feature like fuel gauge failing is a big deal. They fought Dodge and got me a buyback. New car doesn't lie to me about how much gas I have.”

“My Honda Pilot's backup camera would go black right when I needed it. Dealer replaced it once. Broke again. Replaced it again. Third time they said 'they're working on it.' I have kids, I need that camera. Called Easy Lemon and Natalie Nassi said a safety feature failing repeatedly counts. She filed the claim and Honda settled with cash. Got it fixed at an independent shop and pocketed the rest. Camera's been fine since.”
