Is Your Muncie Car a Lemon? Indiana's 3-Step Test

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

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

Have You Met the Repair Attempt Threshold?

In Indiana 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 Indiana the deadline is 2 years following the date the buyer first reports the nonconformity to the manufacturer, its agent, or an authorized dealer. 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.

Delaware County

Court and Venue in Muncie

Muncie is in Delaware County. Indiana's judicial directory lists the Delaware County Circuit Court (Circuit Court #1 through #5) for the county. Which court hears a particular case still depends on its facts, the warranty issues involved and the law it is brought under.

The Indiana lemon law is Ind. Code §24-5-13-1 to §24-5-13-24. If the manufacturer's arbitration program is state-certified and available, 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). 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

Indiana Motor Vehicle Protection Act: The Rules That Decide a Muncie Claim

If you have read Court and Venue above, you already have the repair test, the arbitration rule and the deadline. Indiana law adds a few rules on top of those, and they follow.

Notable provisions of Indiana Motor Vehicle Protection Act

Indiana covers vehicles with a declared gross vehicle weight under 10,000 lbs, and its term of protection runs 18 months or 18,000 miles from delivery. Uses business days for the out-of-service count. Written notice to the manufacturer is required where the manufacturer disclosed that requirement in the warranty or owner’s manual.

Your Rights Under IN Law

What The Manufacturer Owes You

The Indiana statute provides for replacement vehicle or full refund (minus reasonable use offset), and a qualifying IN case from Muncie usually ends in one of these three ways.

Refund

You hand back the car. In return the manufacturer repays the price, the taxes, the registration fees and the finance charges, with a reasonable use offset taken out.

Replacement Vehicle

You leave with a comparable new car. The manufacturer pays for the swap.

Cash Settlement

You keep the car, and the manufacturer pays you for the value the defect took off it. This result is not listed in the statute and comes from negotiation.

Have Questions?

Frequently Asked Questions

The answers below are based on Indiana law and on the paperwork Muncie drivers usually send us.

PROCESS & TIMELINE

Bring the repair orders from your Muncie 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.

ELIGIBILITY

Ind. Code §24-5-13-1 to §24-5-13-24 covers new motor vehicles purchased or leased in Indiana, 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.

We handle any warranty defect that substantially impairs the car's use, value or safety and that the dealer could not fix. The defects we see most often are engine stalling and misfires, transmission shudder or failure, electrical faults, brake and steering problems, and driver-assist systems that brake or drift on their own. Indiana covers vehicles with a declared gross vehicle weight under 10,000 lbs, and its term of protection runs 18 months or 18,000 miles from delivery.

REMEDIES

Ind. Code §24-5-13-1 to §24-5-13-24 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 Indiana, a consumer who wins may recover attorney's fees from the manufacturer. 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 Indiana 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 Ind. Code §24-5-13-1 to §24-5-13-24 requires you to appear anywhere to open a claim. On arbitration, the Indiana rule is: consumer must exhaust manufacturer's arbitration if state-certified and available.

Client Testimonials

What Our Clients Are Saying

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

“I honestly didn't think I had a case. My Subaru's engine consumed a quart of oil every 1,000 miles. Dealer said it was 'within spec.' Did that three times. I just figured I'd live with it.
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 Tesla Model Y had three things wrong that the service center couldn't fix: 1) Phantom braking on highway. 2) Passenger door handle wouldn't present half the time. 3) Rattling from the rear seat area they blamed on 'road noise.' I had service invoices showing four attempts on the brakes, two on the handle, and three on the rattle. Called Easy Lemon. Aaron Waldo took it. He didn't treat them as three small problems. He argued they collectively impaired the vehicle's safety and value. Manufacturer settled with a cash payout plus extended warranty on the remaining issues. They bundle your headaches into one real case."”

“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.”
