How your Alabama claim gets built

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

We File the Claim

Is Your Gadsden Car a Lemon? Alabama's 3-Step Test

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

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

Have You Met the Repair Attempt Threshold?

In Alabama the test is 3 repair attempts for the same defect, or 30 cumulative calendar 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 Alabama the deadline is 3 years from original delivery. 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.

Etowah County

Court and Venue in Gadsden

Gadsden is in Etowah County. Etowah County's general civil trial court is the circuit court of Alabama's Sixteenth Judicial Circuit. Alabama 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 Alabama lemon law is Ala. Code §8-20A-1 to §8-20A-6. If the manufacturer has a dispute program that follows federal rules, the consumer must use it first.

The repair test in the statute is 3 repair attempts for the same defect, or 30 cumulative calendar days with the vehicle out of service. The statutory remedy is a replacement vehicle or full refund (minus reasonable use allowance). Under the statute, a consumer who prevails can recover attorney fees from the manufacturer.

Open recalls on your vehicle can be checked against NHTSA records at easylemon.com/recalls. A recall alone is not a lemon law claim.

Your Rights Under AL Law

What The Manufacturer Owes You

Under the statute, the remedies open to Alabama drivers are replacement vehicle or full refund (minus reasonable use allowance). If your Gadsden car qualifies under AL 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 Alabama law and on the paperwork Gadsden drivers usually send us.

PROCESS & TIMELINE

Bring the repair orders from your Gadsden 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.

Usually not. Most lemon law cases we handle for Gadsden drivers settle with the manufacturer before a lawsuit is filed. On arbitration, the Alabama rule is: if the manufacturer has a dispute program that follows federal rules, you must use it first. We prepare that filing for you.

ELIGIBILITY

It may. Under Ala. Code §8-20A-1 to §8-20A-6, your Gadsden car can qualify if a defect covered by the warranty is still there after 3 repair attempts for the same defect, or 30 cumulative calendar days out of service. The statute covers new motor vehicles purchased or leased in Alabama, used primarily for personal, family, or household purposes.

Ala. Code §8-20A-1 to §8-20A-6 covers new motor vehicles purchased or leased in Alabama, used primarily for personal, family, or household purposes. If you bought used, send the paperwork anyway, including any written warranty that came with the car.

REMEDIES

Ala. Code §8-20A-1 to §8-20A-6 provides for replacement vehicle or full refund (minus reasonable use allowance). Which one you get depends on your repair history and on what the manufacturer offers.

In Alabama, 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.

“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.”
