Multiple Electrical and A/C Failures on a Nearly New Dodge Charger
Dodge Charger lemon law claims in Florida are covered under Chapter 681, Florida Statutes. When a vehicle requires multiple repair attempts for the same defect and the manufacturer cannot provide a permanent fix, the owner may be entitled to a cash settlement — at no cost. Easy Lemon recovered $66,508 for this client.
Our client leased a new Dodge Charger from Taverna Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram Fiat in Florida, with only 5 miles at delivery. With only 1,359 miles on the odometer, the vehicle developed multiple simultaneous electrical and HVAC failures — a red wrench warning light, intermittent radio sound, no A/C output, and a 'Service Electrical Charging System' warning. Parts were placed on backorder with no confirmed resolution date, and a rental vehicle was provided.

Legal Analysis
Why This Dodge Charger Qualified as a Lemon
Florida's Lemon Law (Chapter 681, Florida Statutes) sets specific thresholds that entitle a consumer to a buyback or replacement. This case satisfied multiple criteria:
Electrical: Required multiple repair attempts without permanent resolution.
Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act eligible: Federal warranty protection provided additional remedies.
💡 Zero Cost to the Client: Under Florida's Lemon Law and Magnuson-Moss, Dodge was required to pay Easy Lemon's legal fees upon successful resolution. The client paid $0 out of pocket.

Do Dodge Charger vehicles have electrical or A/C problems?
Some Dodge Charger owners have reported electrical system failures, including charging system warnings, HVAC air output failures, and instrument cluster warning lights. Parts availability issues with newer model variants can extend dealer repair times significantly.
Does Florida lemon law cover a vehicle with parts on backorder?
Yes. A vehicle kept at the dealership due to backordered parts still counts as being 'out of service' under Florida's Lemon Law. Florida law does not excuse the manufacturer from its obligation simply because parts are unavailable — the out-of-service clock runs regardless.
Can I get a buyback on a leased Dodge Charger?
Yes. Florida's Lemon Law applies to leased vehicles. In a buyback on a leased vehicle, the manufacturer typically reimburses amounts paid under the lease and the lease obligation is terminated. Easy Lemon has resolved numerous lemon law buybacks on leased Stellantis vehicles in Florida.
