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

Madisonville Lemon Law Basics
Claims from Madisonville fall under Ky. Rev. Stat. §367.840 to §367.846, which covers new motor vehicles purchased or leased in Kentucky for personal use. If the defect is still there once your repair orders reach one of the repair limits in the box above, and you are within the deadline, you may have a claim. Our Kentucky Lemon Law Attorneys page has the statute text, the deadlines and the used-car rules.

Is Your Madisonville Car a Lemon? Kentucky's 3-Step Test
Does the Defect Substantially Impair Use, Value, or Safety?
Under Kentucky law, the defect has to substantially impair the vehicle's use, value, or safety.
Have You Met the Repair Attempt Threshold?
In Kentucky the test is 4 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 Kentucky, a claim must be filed within 2 years after the date of original delivery of the vehicle to the buyer. We check that deadline 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 think you are past a deadline, call us anyway. We may still be able to help.
Court and Venue in Madisonville
Madisonville is in Hopkins County. Hopkins County's general civil trial court is the Hopkins County Circuit Court, part of the 4th Judicial Circuit. Kentucky 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 Kentucky lemon law is Ky. Rev. Stat. §367.840 to §367.846. If the manufacturer's arbitration program is state-certified, the consumer must use it.
The repair test in the statute is 4 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 a full refund, minus a reasonable offset for use. The court may award reasonable attorney fees to a plaintiff who prevails.
Open recalls on your vehicle can be checked against NHTSA records at easylemon.com/recalls. A recall alone is not a lemon law claim.

Notable provisions of Kentucky Lemon Law - Motor Vehicle Warranty Act
Kentucky's coverage window is 12 months or 12,000 miles. The buyer must report the nonconformity to the manufacturer in writing. Motor homes, motorcycles, and substantially altered vehicles are excluded.

What The Manufacturer Owes You
By statute, the Kentucky remedy is a replacement vehicle or a full refund, minus a reasonable offset for use. When a Madisonville car qualifies under Kentucky law, the case usually ends in one of three ways.
Refund
The manufacturer buys the car back. It repays the price along with the taxes, registration fees and finance charges, but it may deduct a reasonable use offset.
Replacement Vehicle
Instead of money you get a comparable new car, and the swap costs you nothing.
Cash Settlement
The statute does not set this one. It comes from negotiation: you keep the car, and the manufacturer pays for the value the defect took off it.

What Our Clients Are Saying
Easy Lemon has handled 3,000+ lemon law cases‡.
My brother-in-law, a mechanic, said 'that's not normal for a modern engine. Call someone.' So I did. I spoke to Steven Nassi at Easy Lemon.
He explained that excessive oil consumption is a known defect in certain Subaru engines. He'd handled similar cases. He said, 'They tell you it's normal because they don't want to replace the short block.' He already knew the internal service bulletins.
His team filed the claim. Subaru settled with a cash payment that covered my oil expenses and then some. I was genuinely surprised it worked.
Why different? Steven saw a pattern I didn't know existed. They don't just take cases; they know manufacturer secrets.”
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.”
