Nevada Lemon Law Attorneys
You Can Get a Cash Settlement, a Replacement Car, or a Refund with Easy Lemon
The Nevada Lemon Law (Nev. Rev. Stat. §597.600 to §597.688) requires manufacturers to repurchase or replace a new motor vehicle with a substantial defect after 4 repair attempts for the same defect or 30 cumulative calendar days out of service. Under this statute, the manufacturer pays the consumer's attorney fees when the consumer prevails, no attorney fees unless we recover for you. Easy Lemon represents Nevada drivers at every stage.
How your Nevada claim gets built
Our lemon law work is directed by Steven P. Nassi, Esq., Managing Partner, Easy Lemon by RockPoint Law P.C. A Nevada claim gets built on two things: the Nevada 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.
Read Steven Nassi’s full bio →Is Your Car a Lemon?
Your car may be a lemon if it keeps going back to the dealer or the mechanic for the same problem. Under Nevada law, the defect must make the car unsafe, unreliable or worth much less. The manufacturer or dealer must also have failed to fix it after several tries.
The same noise, shaking or warning light keeps coming back.
The dealer has worked on it multiple times and the problem is still there.
Understanding Nevada's Lemon Law
Nevada's Lemon Law is found at Nev. Rev. Stat. §597.600 to §597.688 and sets the rules for defective new vehicles in the state.
How Nevada's Lemon Law Process Works

Before a Nevada lemon law case goes to court, the buyer may have to try the manufacturer's own program first. If the manufacturer's informal dispute settlement procedure substantially complies with 16 C.F.R. Part 703, the claim has to be submitted there, so the first thing we check is whether the manufacturer, GM for a Hummer or a Silverado and Ford for a Lincoln, has a procedure like that. There's more on how these programs work in our lemon law FAQ.
Once the repair history reaches 4 repair attempts for the same defect or 30 cumulative calendar days out of service, and after any written notice to the manufacturer that the statute makes a prerequisite, the program can take the case, and then it's the program that sets the timing. The manufacturer is often bound by the decision. The consumer usually can still go to civil court afterwards, but appeal deadlines vary, and so we'd like to see the decision the day it comes. We prepare the filing and send the repair orders in with it.
If that doesn't end it, the case goes to court, usually in the county where you live or where the car was sold, and the district courts for Clark County, Washoe County and Carson City are listed below.
Nevada Lemon Law vs Federal Magnuson-Moss
We review each Nevada case under the state act and under the federal Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act (15 U.S.C. §2301), since most of them can go under both, and we lead with the stronger one. Nevada's law has the repair presumption and the buyback remedy, but Magnuson-Moss adds a federal fee provision, and it can cover defects outside the Nevada lemon law period.
Nevada Lemon Law - New Vehicle Warranty Act
Nevada's act counts 4 repair attempts for the same defect or 30 cumulative calendar days out of service, and the Hummer's braking got no shorter count for being a safety problem. Coverage lasts through the express warranty or the first year after delivery, whichever ends earlier, but the owner has 18 months from original delivery to file. The act reaches new motor vehicles purchased or leased in Nevada for personal, family, or household purposes, so a used car is out. If the manufacturer's program substantially complies with 16 C.F.R. Part 703 the buyer goes there before suing, and a consumer who prevails may recover attorney fees.
Magnuson-Moss and a reasonable number of attempts
Nevada puts a number on repairs. But the federal act just asks for a "reasonable number" of repair attempts, and what counts as reasonable depends on the facts. Its time limit is the length of the express warranty, while Nevada's coverage stops at the end of the warranty or a year after delivery, whichever is first. Magnuson-Moss applies to products sold with a written warranty, and that is why used cars often qualify. Either way the case can be filed in state or federal court, and the federal fee rule is 15 U.S.C. §2310(d)(2).
Nevada Lemon Law: Statute-Cited Answers
What counts as a reasonable number of repair attempts under Nevada lemon laws?
Under Nev. Rev. Stat. §597.600 to §597.688 it is 4 repair attempts for the same defect or 30 cumulative calendar days out of service, and our client's Silverado 3500 went far past the days. It was a brand-new 2025 Chevrolet Silverado 3500 HD Duramax diesel. Our client bought it from Champion Chevrolet in Nevada on November 30, 2024, and it had 37 miles on it. One visit was an ECM and TCM update under GM bulletin 23-NA-061. At Visit 3 the diesel particulate filter had failed, with codes P2463 and P24A4, and the dealer replaced the DPF, a seal and a pipe. At Visit 5 the EGR cooler bypass valve was stuck from an internal fault, with codes P24A5-00 and P245B-00, and they replaced the valve. Regeneration would get the soot down to 0%, and over the next weeks it built right back up. Visit 7 ran from August 11 to September 10, 2025. The soot level was at 255% and the truck couldn't regenerate anymore, so General Motors' Technical Assistance Center directed a complete teardown that replaced the DPF, all eight diesel injectors and the EGR valve. By then it had been out of service 320 cumulative days across seven visits in about ten months, and our client kept it with a cash settlement.
Which Nevada court hears a lemon law case if arbitration fails?
Usually the general civil trial court for the county where you live or where the car was sold. North Las Vegas is in Clark County, whose general civil trial court is the Eighth Judicial District Court, Reno is in Washoe County with the Second Judicial District Court, and Carson City, which the Census counts as its own county area, has the First Judicial District Court. Nevada also has a lower court for smaller civil claims, so the amount in dispute can change where a case is filed. A Magnuson-Moss claim can also go to Federal District Court (15 U.S.C. §2310(d)(1)) if damages are over $50,000 or party diversity permits it. In the end, which court hears a particular case still depends on its facts, the warranty issues involved and the law it is brought under.
What do Nevada lemon law attorneys need from you?
The repair orders, every one, because we count each attempt from a dealer repair order, and we want one even for visits where the technician found nothing.
- the purchase or lease contract, which shows the delivery date the 18 months run from
- the warranty booklet
- emails, texts and letters with the dealer or manufacturer
- receipts for towing, rentals and lodging, since those costs are often recoverable
It helps to note the date, the mileage and the symptom every time the problem shows up. You can also look up your VIN for recall notices on the NHTSA site, nhtsa.gov/recalls.
Where does the UCC implied warranty fit in?
It reaches further than the lemon law. Merchantability under UCC §2-314 applies to sales of goods by merchants, used vehicles included, and it is a lower bar than the lemon law's substantial impairment, while UCC §2-315 adds fitness for a particular purpose when you relied on the seller's advice for a specific use, like towing.
