Under a buyback deal, the manufacturer takes back the vehicle, pays off the loan or lease and then refunds the owner, after subtracting any use allowance the state permits. In a cash-and-keep settlement, the owner keeps the vehicle and receives a cash payment.

No upfront fee. In lemon law cases the manufacturer generally pays the attorney fees under fee-shifting statutes. In this case part of the attorney fees came out of the settlement.
