You May Not Qualify Under Standard Lemon Law

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

Pascagoula Lemon Law Basics
Mississippi's lemon law, Miss. Code §63-17-151 to §63-17-165, is the one that applies in Pascagoula. It covers new motor vehicles purchased or leased in Mississippi for personal, family, or household use, and you may have a claim once your repair orders reach one of the repair limits in the box above, as long as the defect is still there and you are inside the deadline. Our Mississippi Lemon Law Attorneys page has the full statute text, the filing deadlines and the used-car rules.

Is Your Pascagoula Car a Lemon? Mississippi's 3-Step Test
Does the Defect Substantially Impair Use, Value, or Safety?
Under Mississippi law, the defect has to substantially impair the vehicle's use, value, or safety.
Have You Met the Repair Attempt Threshold?
In Mississippi the test is 3 repair attempts for the same defect, or 15 cumulative working 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 Mississippi the deadline is 1 year after the express warranty expires or 18 months from original delivery, whichever is earlier. 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.
Court and Venue in Pascagoula
Pascagoula is in Jackson County. Mississippi's circuit courts are among its general-jurisdiction trial courts, and Jackson County is in Circuit Court District 19; a county court there shares some civil cases. Which court hears a particular case still depends on its facts, the warranty issues involved and the law it is brought under.
The Mississippi lemon law is Miss. Code §63-17-151 to §63-17-165. If the manufacturer's informal dispute program complies with federal rules (16 C.F.R. Part 703), the consumer must use it first.
The repair test in the statute is 3 repair attempts for the same defect, or 15 cumulative working days with the vehicle out of service. The statutory remedy is a replacement vehicle or full refund (minus reasonable use offset). The court may award a consumer who prevails costs and reasonable 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.

Mississippi Motor Vehicle Warranty Enforcement Act: The Rules That Decide a Pascagoula Claim
Some Mississippi rules sit outside the repair test, the arbitration rule and the deadline, which you can find under Court and Venue above. Those other rules are here.
Notable provisions of Mississippi Motor Vehicle Warranty Enforcement Act
Mississippi sets a low threshold — 3 repair attempts, or 15 working days out of service. Written notice to the manufacturer is required, after which the manufacturer has 10 working days to conform the vehicle to the warranty.

What The Manufacturer Owes You
Mississippi's statute lists replacement vehicle or full refund (minus reasonable use offset). In practice, a qualifying Pascagoula case under MS law usually ends in one of three ways, and the cards below explain each.
Refund
You return the car. The price comes back to you, and so do the taxes, the registration fees and the finance charges, after a reasonable use offset is taken off.
Replacement Vehicle
You trade the defective car for a comparable new one, and the manufacturer pays what the swap costs.
Cash Settlement
The car stays with you, and the manufacturer pays for the drop in value the defect caused. The statute does not provide for this. It comes out of negotiation.
