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

Oregon City Lemon Law Basics
The law that applies in Oregon City is Oregon's lemon law, Or. Rev. Stat. §646A.400 to §646A.418, and it covers new motor vehicles purchased or leased in Oregon 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 Oregon Lemon Law Attorneys page.

Is Your Oregon City Car a Lemon? Oregon's 3-Step Test
Does the Defect Substantially Impair Use, Value, or Safety?
Under Oregon law, the defect has to substantially impair the vehicle's use, value, or safety.
Have You Met the Repair Attempt Threshold?
In Oregon the test is 3 repair attempts for the same defect or 30 cumulative calendar days out of service (60 days for motor homes), 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 Oregon, a claim must be brought within 1 year after the earlier of 2 years or 24,000 miles from original delivery. 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 Oregon City
Oregon City is in Clackamas County. Clackamas County's general civil trial court is the Clackamas County Circuit Court, part of the 5th Judicial District. Which court hears a particular case still depends on its facts, the warranty issues involved and the law it is brought under.
The Oregon lemon law is Or. Rev. Stat. §646A.400 to §646A.418. If the manufacturer has a dispute program that follows federal FTC rules and has told the consumer about it, the consumer must use it first; its decision binds the manufacturer but not the consumer.
The repair test in the statute is 3 repair attempts for the same defect, or 30 cumulative calendar days (60 days for motor homes) with the vehicle out of service. The statutory remedy is a replacement vehicle or a full refund, minus a reasonable offset for use. Under the statute, the court may award reasonable attorney fees to a consumer 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.

What The Manufacturer Owes You
What the manufacturer owes under Oregon's statute is a replacement vehicle or a full refund, minus a reasonable offset for use. Most qualifying cases from Oregon City end in one of the three results below.
Refund
The manufacturer takes the car back and pays you the purchase price, taxes, registration fees and finance charges, and it can subtract a reasonable use offset.
Replacement Vehicle
You get a comparable new car in place of the one with the defect, with the manufacturer covering the cost.
Cash Settlement
You keep driving the car and the manufacturer pays you for the lost value. This is a negotiated result, since the statute does not list it.
