Common Questions

2025 Ram 1500 Lemon Law Questions in Alabama

What does the Alabama Lemon Law require, and how was this Ram 1500 claim brought?
Two thresholds matter under the Alabama Lemon Law (Ala. Code §8-20A-1 to §8-20A-6): 3 repair attempts for the same defect, or 30 cumulative calendar days out of service. Remedies: Replacement vehicle or full refund (minus reasonable use allowance). The Alabama Lemon Law covers new vehicles, so this claim for a used Ram 1500 was brought under the federal Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act.
How much was this 2025 Ram 1500 lemon law settlement?
This case closed with a cash-and-keep settlement of $21,000. It adds up the money paid to our client and the attorney fees. Results may vary. Prior outcomes do not guarantee a similar result.
What does a lemon law buyback mean compared with a cash-and-keep settlement?
A buyback means the manufacturer repurchases the vehicle: it pays off the loan or lease and refunds the owner, less any state-permitted use allowance. A cash-and-keep settlement pays the owner cash, and the owner keeps the vehicle.
Will I owe Easy Lemon anything upfront for a Ram lemon law claim?
No. There is no upfront fee, and lemon law fee-shifting statutes generally require the manufacturer to pay attorney fees. In this case, the attorney fees were included in the $21,000 total.
