Easy Lemon Results: Real Lemon Law Cases

Real numbers behind the $50 million** figure, with the caveat that past results do not guarantee future outcomes.

What the recovery breakdown looks like. The largest individual recoveries come from cash-and-keep settlements on high-value vehicles where the defect was severe but the buyer wanted to keep driving, five-figure and occasionally six-figure settlements on luxury and EV cases. The most common outcomes are mid-range buybacks: an SUV with a transmission defect, a truck with recurring engine issues, a sedan with electrical problems that disabled safety features. Replacement vehicles tend to land in the middle.

Manufacturers we have negotiated with most. FCA brands (Jeep, Ram, Dodge, Chrysler) and Ford account for the largest share by volume. GM, Toyota, Honda, Hyundai, Kia, Nissan, Subaru, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Audi, and Tesla are all on the list. The smaller brands, Mitsubishi, Mazda, Volvo, appear less often but settle similarly.

Defect categories that drive most claims: powertrain failures (transmission, engine, drivetrain), electrical and infotainment failures that disable safety features, recurring no-fix problems where the dealer cannot identify a root cause, and EV-specific issues (battery thermal events, charging system failures).

What the dollar figure does not capture: the time clients got back when a manufacturer who had been ignoring them for nine months suddenly cut a check three weeks after our demand letter went out. The pressure of fee-shift is real, manufacturers know that once we are involved, dragging the file out costs them more than settling.

Past results do not guarantee future outcomes. Every case turns on its specific facts, the state statute, and the manufacturer's posture. But the volume gives us a clear read on what your file is actually worth.
