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

Gallatin Lemon Law Basics
Tennessee's lemon law, Tenn. Code §55-24-101 to §55-24-112, is the one that applies in Gallatin. It covers new motor vehicles purchased or leased in Tennessee for personal, family, or household use, and you may have a claim once your repair orders reach one of the repair limits in the box above, as long as the defect is still there and you are inside the deadline. Our Tennessee Lemon Law Attorneys page has the full statute text, the filing deadlines and the used-car rules.

Is Your Gallatin Car a Lemon? Tennessee's 3-Step Test
Does the Defect Substantially Impair Use, Value, or Safety?
Under Tennessee law, the defect has to substantially impair the vehicle's use, value, or safety.
Have You Met the Repair Attempt Threshold?
In Tennessee 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 Tennessee the deadline is 6 months following the later of the express warranty term expiring or 1 year 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.
Court and Venue in Gallatin
Gallatin is in Sumner County. Sumner County has its own Circuit Court. Which court hears a particular case still depends on its facts, the warranty issues involved and the law it is brought under.
The Tennessee lemon law is Tenn. Code §55-24-101 to §55-24-112. 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 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.
Open recalls on your vehicle can be checked against NHTSA records at easylemon.com/recalls. A recall alone is not a lemon law claim.

Tennessee Motor Vehicle Warranty Enforcement Act: The Rules That Decide a Gallatin Claim
If you have read Court and Venue above, you already have the repair test, the arbitration rule and the deadline. Tennessee law adds a few rules on top of those, and they follow.
Notable provisions of Tennessee Motor Vehicle Warranty Enforcement Act
Tennessee requires 3 repair attempts, or 30 cumulative calendar days out of service, within the term of protection — the express warranty or 1 year from delivery, whichever comes first. Written notice to the manufacturer by certified mail is required, after which the manufacturer has up to 10 days to cure. Tenn. Code ch. 55-24 provides no reduced-attempt route for safety-related defects.

Under the statute, the remedies open to Tennessee drivers are replacement vehicle or full refund (minus reasonable use offset). If your Gallatin car qualifies under TN 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.
