Your Missouri lemon law attorney

Admitted in Missouri

Nicole Forsythe handles Missouri lemon law claims as Of Counsel, and she works out of Kansas City. She is admitted in Missouri and in Kansas, with a J.D. from the University of Missouri–Kansas City School of Law and an LL.M. in Taxation. Missouri counts out-of-service time in business days rather than calendar days, which catches people out. Thirty of those, or four repair attempts for the same defect, under Mo. Rev. Stat. §407.560. You have to notify the manufacturer in writing first, and it gets one last try to fix the car.

Hazelwood Lemon Law

Hazelwood Lemon Law Basics

The law that applies in Hazelwood is Missouri's lemon law, Mo. Rev. Stat. §407.560 to §407.579, and it covers new motor vehicles purchased or leased in Missouri for personal, family, or household use. 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 Missouri Lemon Law Attorneys page.

Is Your Hazelwood Car a Lemon? Missouri's 3-Step Test

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

Under Missouri 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 Missouri cases:

⚠️2024 Chevrolet Blazer EV (Ultium-platform Electric SUV): Back glass broken on day two of ownership
⚠️2024 Chevrolet Blazer EV (Ultium-platform Electric SUV): Charging door assembly inoperative without manual intervention
⚠️2024 Chevrolet Blazer EV (Ultium-platform Electric SUV): Radio sound stuck at maximum volume
⚠️2024 Chevrolet Blazer EV (Ultium-platform Electric SUV): Service High Voltage System warning

Have You Met the Repair Attempt Threshold?

In Missouri the test is 4 repair attempts for the same defect, or 30 cumulative business 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 Missouri the deadline is 6 months after the express warranty expires or 18 months from original delivery, whichever is earlier (or 90 days after the decision, if you used the manufacturer's dispute program). 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.

St. Louis County

Court and Venue in Hazelwood

Hazelwood is in St. Louis County. St. Louis County's general civil trial court is the Circuit Court of St. Louis County, part of the 21st Judicial Circuit. Which court hears a particular case still depends on its facts, the warranty issues involved and the law it is brought under.

The Missouri lemon law is Mo. Rev. Stat. §407.560 to §407.579. If the manufacturer's arbitration program is state-certified, the consumer must complete it first.

The repair test in the statute is 4 repair attempts for the same defect, or 30 cumulative business 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.

Your Rights Under MO Law

What The Manufacturer Owes You

Missouri's statute lists replacement vehicle or full refund (minus reasonable use offset). In practice, a qualifying Hazelwood case under MO law usually ends in one of three ways, and the cards below explain each.

Refund

You return the car. The price comes back to you, and so do the taxes, the registration fees and the finance charges, after a reasonable use offset is taken off.

Replacement Vehicle

You trade the defective car for a comparable new one, and the manufacturer pays what the swap costs.

Cash Settlement

The car stays with you, and the manufacturer pays for the drop in value the defect caused. The statute does not provide for this. It comes out of negotiation.

Have Questions?

Frequently Asked Questions

The answers below are based on Missouri law and on the paperwork Hazelwood drivers usually send us.

PROCESS & TIMELINE

Most of the Missouri 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 Missouri filing deadline is within 6 months after the express warranty expires or 18 months from original delivery, whichever is earlier (or 90 days after the decision, if you used the manufacturer's dispute program).

ELIGIBILITY

Mo. Rev. Stat. §407.560 to §407.579 covers new motor vehicles purchased or leased in Missouri for personal, family, or household use. If you bought used, send the paperwork anyway, including any written warranty that came with the car.

REMEDIES

Mo. Rev. Stat. §407.560 to §407.579 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 Missouri, 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

No. Our offices are in Manhasset NY, Newark NJ, Miami FL and Dallas TX. We handle Missouri cases by phone, email and e-signature. You upload your repair orders, your contract and your warranty booklet. We send the demand letter and handle the settlement paperwork. Nothing in Mo. Rev. Stat. §407.560 to §407.579 requires you to appear anywhere to open a claim. On arbitration, the Missouri rule is: must exhaust manufacturer's arbitration if state-certified.

Nothing upfront, and no attorney's fee unless we recover for you. In Missouri, the manufacturer pays the consumer's attorney's fees when the consumer wins. In most successful Missouri 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.

Client Testimonials

What Our Clients Are Saying

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

“I'm not a lawyer, but I tried. I filed complaints with the BBB. I called the manufacturer's customer service line so many times they knew my voice. I even wrote a letter to the dealership owner. Nothing.
My Honda Pilot's fuel system kept throwing check engine codes for the evaporative emissions system. Four visits, four 'fixes,' four returns of the light.
A friend said 'just call a lemon law firm already.' I called Easy Lemon and spoke to Natalie Nassi. First thing she said: 'You've done the hard work already. Now let us do ours.'
She was right. She took my mountain of paperwork—my letters, my complaint case numbers, my repair orders—and organized it into a real claim. The manufacturer settled in two months.
Why them? Natalie valued the effort I'd already put in. She didn't start from zero; she built on my frustration. That respect made all the difference.”

“My Jeep Wrangler's manual transmission would pop out of reverse. Dealer kept it twice, said they couldn't replicate. Third time they replaced the shifter. Still popped out. I was backing out of my driveway and it nearly rolled into the street. Called Easy Lemon and Natalie Nassi said that's a major safety defect. She took my case and Jeep bought it back. Now I drive something that stays in gear.”

“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.”
