Why Did This 2025 Chevrolet Traverse Qualify as a Lemon in Illinois?
Illinois's Lemon Law (815 ILCS 380) sets specific thresholds that can entitle a consumer to a buyback or replacement. The repair records in this case showed:
- Electrical: reported in the repair records.
- Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act: the claim also relied on federal warranty law.
