Common Questions

2025 Chevrolet Silverado EV Lemon Law Questions in New Jersey

How does New Jersey lemon law apply to a Chevrolet Silverado EV?
The New Jersey Lemon Law (N.J. Stat. §56:12-29 to §56:12-49) uses a standard of 3 repair attempts for the same defect (or 1 for serious safety defects), or 20 cumulative calendar days out of service. Remedies: Replacement vehicle, full refund, or cash settlement. Written warranties are also covered nationwide by the federal Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act.
What was the settlement amount for this 2025 Chevrolet Silverado EV?
A vehicle buyback totaling $75,015. Part went to our client, part paid off the lender, and the rest covered attorney fees, which the manufacturer paid. Results may vary. Prior outcomes do not guarantee a similar result.
How is a buyback different from cash and keep?
With a buyback, the manufacturer takes the vehicle back, pays off the loan or lease and refunds the owner, minus any use allowance the state allows. With cash and keep, the owner keeps the vehicle and gets a cash payment.
What does it cost to bring a Chevrolet lemon law claim with Easy Lemon?
There is no upfront fee. Lemon law fee-shifting statutes generally make the manufacturer pay the attorney fees. Our client in this case paid nothing out of pocket†.
