How your West Virginia claim gets built

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

Morgantown Lemon Law

Morgantown Lemon Law Basics

In Morgantown, as anywhere else in West Virginia, a lemon law claim is brought under W. Va. Code §46A-6A-1 to §46A-6A-9. The statute covers new motor vehicles purchased or leased in West Virginia for personal, family, or household use, but being covered is only the start. The car also has to reach one of the repair limits in the box above, with the defect still unrepaired and the deadline not yet passed. If it does, you may have a claim. Our West Virginia Lemon Law Attorneys page goes through the statute text, the filing deadlines and used cars in more detail.

Step by Step

How a Morgantown Lemon Law Claim Works

This is what happens after you call us from Morgantown.

1

Document Your Repairs

Keep every repair order from your Morgantown dealership, even the short ones. WV lemon law needs written proof of each repair attempt, and those papers are the proof.

2

Free Case Evaluation

We read your repair history against the West Virginia statute and tell you whether the car qualifies. The review costs nothing, and there are no attorney's fees unless we recover for you.

3

We File the Claim

We write and send the paperwork, including any written notice to the manufacturer that WV law requires. We deal with the manufacturer for you.

4

You Get Compensated

The case ends with a refund, a replacement vehicle or a cash settlement. There are no attorney's fees unless we recover for you.

W. Va. Code §46A-6A-1 to §46A-6A-9

Is Your Morgantown Car a Lemon? West Virginia's 3-Step Test

1

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

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

2

Have You Met the Repair Attempt Threshold?

In West Virginia the test is 3 repair attempts for the same defect (or 1 for serious safety defects), or 30 cumulative calendar days 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, 1 repair attempt is enough. Count the visits on your repair orders to see where you stand.

3

Did It Happen Within the Rights Period?

In West Virginia the deadline is 1 year of the expiration of the express warranty term. 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.

Monongalia County

Court and Venue in Morgantown

Morgantown is in Monongalia County. Monongalia County's general civil trial court is the Circuit Court of Monongalia County, part of the Twenty-First Judicial Circuit. West Virginia 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 West Virginia lemon law is W. Va. Code §46A-6A-1 to §46A-6A-9. If the manufacturer's arbitration program is state-certified, the consumer must complete it first.

The repair test in the statute is 3 repair attempts for the same defect (or 1 for serious safety defects), 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). A consumer who prevails may recover attorney fees.

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

What the Statute Says

West Virginia Lemon Law - Motor Vehicle Warranties Act: The Rules That Decide a Morgantown Claim

West Virginia law sets a repair test, an arbitration rule and a deadline, and Court and Venue above already explains those three. Here are a few of its other rules.

Notable provisions of West Virginia Lemon Law - Motor Vehicle Warranties Act

West Virginia requires 3 repair attempts, and only 1 when the nonconformity is likely to cause death or serious bodily injury if the vehicle is driven. Prior written notification to the manufacturer and at least one opportunity to cure are required.

Your Rights Under WV Law

What The Manufacturer Owes You

West Virginia law provides for replacement vehicle or full refund (minus reasonable use offset). There are three ways a qualifying case from Morgantown usually ends under WV law.

$

Refund

Give the car back and the manufacturer repays the price you paid, with the taxes, registration fees and finance charges. A reasonable use offset comes off that amount.

Replacement Vehicle

The manufacturer hands you a comparable new car and pays the cost of the exchange.

$

Cash Settlement

The car stays yours and the manufacturer pays for the value the defect took off it. You will not find this option in the statute. It is reached by negotiation.

Have Questions?

Frequently Asked Questions

The answers below are based on West Virginia law and on the paperwork Morgantown drivers usually send us.

PROCESS & TIMELINE
Most of the West Virginia 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 West Virginia filing deadline is within 1 year of the expiration of the express warranty term.
Bring the repair orders from your Morgantown 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 Morgantown drivers settle with the manufacturer before a lawsuit is filed. On arbitration, the West Virginia rule is: must exhaust manufacturer's arbitration if state-certified. We prepare that filing for you.
REMEDIES
W. Va. Code §46A-6A-1 to §46A-6A-9 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.
ATTORNEY & TRUST
Nothing upfront, and no attorney's fee unless we recover for you. In West Virginia, a consumer who wins may recover attorney's fees from the manufacturer. In most successful West Virginia 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 W. Va. Code §46A-6A-1 to §46A-6A-9. 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 West Virginia law requires.

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

“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.”

“I had an excellent experience with Easylemon! They went above and beyond to help me return my car and successfully recover my money. The whole process could have been stressful, but their team handled everything professionally, efficiently, and with great attention to detail.

I truly appreciate their support, transparency, and dedication throughout the entire process. They kept me informed and made sure my rights were protected every step of the way.

If you’re ever in a similar situation, I highly recommend Easylemon. They really know what they’re doing and genuinely care about their clients.

Thank you again for your outstanding help!”
