Southaven Lemon Law

Southaven Lemon Law Basics

In Southaven, as anywhere else in Mississippi, a lemon law claim is brought under Miss. Code §63-17-151 to §63-17-165. The statute covers new motor vehicles purchased or leased in Mississippi for personal, family, or household use, but being covered is only the start. The car also has to reach one of the repair limits in the box above, with the defect still unrepaired and the deadline not yet passed. If it does, you may have a claim. Our Mississippi Lemon Law Attorneys page goes through the statute text, the filing deadlines and used cars in more detail.

We File the Claim

We write and send the paperwork, including the written notice to the manufacturer that Mississippi law requires. We deal with the manufacturer for you.

Miss. Code §63-17-151 to §63-17-165

Is Your Southaven Car a Lemon? Mississippi's 3-Step Test

Does the Defect Substantially Impair Use, Value, or Safety?

Under Mississippi law, the defect has to substantially impair the vehicle's use, value, or safety.

Have You Met the Repair Attempt Threshold?

In Mississippi the test is 3 repair attempts for the same defect or 15 cumulative working days out of service, as long as the claim is brought within the deadline in step 3. Count the visits on your repair orders to see where you stand.

Did It Happen Within the Rights Period?

In Mississippi, a claim must be filed within 1 year after the express warranty expires or 18 months from original delivery, whichever is earlier. We check that deadline against the delivery date on your contract and the dates on your repair orders.

If you are not sure about your dates, call us. The consultation is free. 📞 (855) 435-3666

If you think you are past a deadline, call us anyway. We may still be able to help.

DeSoto County

Court and Venue in Southaven

Southaven is in DeSoto County. Mississippi's circuit courts are general-jurisdiction trial courts, and DeSoto County is in Circuit Court District 21; a county court there also hears some civil cases. Which court hears a particular case still depends on its facts, the warranty issues involved and the law it is brought under.

The Mississippi lemon law is Miss. Code §63-17-151 to §63-17-165. If the manufacturer's informal dispute program complies with federal rules (16 C.F.R. Part 703), the consumer must use it first.

The repair test in the statute is 3 repair attempts for the same defect, or 15 cumulative working days with the vehicle out of service. The statutory remedy is a replacement vehicle or a full refund, minus a reasonable offset for use. The court may award a consumer who prevails costs and reasonable attorney fees.

Open recalls on your vehicle can be checked against NHTSA records at easylemon.com/recalls. A recall alone is not a lemon law claim.

What the Statute Says

Mississippi Motor Vehicle Warranty Enforcement Act: The Rules That Decide a Southaven Claim

Notable provisions of Mississippi Motor Vehicle Warranty Enforcement Act

Mississippi requires 3 repair attempts, or 15 working days out of service. Written notice to the manufacturer is required, after which the manufacturer has 10 working days to conform the vehicle to the warranty.

Your Rights Under Mississippi Law

What The Manufacturer Owes You

Under the statute, the remedy open to Mississippi drivers is a replacement vehicle or a full refund, minus a reasonable offset for use. If your Southaven car qualifies, the case usually ends in one of the three ways below.

Refund

You return the car and the manufacturer pays back the price, taxes, registration fees and finance charges, minus a reasonable use offset.

Replacement Vehicle

The manufacturer replaces the car with a comparable new one at its own cost.

Cash Settlement

You keep the car and receive a payment for its lost value. That payment is negotiated. The statute does not list it.

Frequently Asked Questions

The answers below are based on Mississippi law and on the paperwork Southaven drivers usually send us.

ELIGIBILITY

It may. Under Miss. Code §63-17-151 to §63-17-165, your Southaven car can qualify if a defect covered by the warranty is still there after 3 repair attempts for the same defect, or 15 cumulative working days out of service. The statute covers new motor vehicles purchased or leased in Mississippi for personal, family, or household use.

Miss. Code §63-17-151 to §63-17-165 covers new motor vehicles purchased or leased in Mississippi for personal, family, or household use. If you bought used, send the paperwork anyway, including any written warranty that came with the car.

We handle warranty defects that substantially impair the car's use, value or safety and that the dealer could not fix. The defects we see most often are engine stalling and misfires, transmission shudder or failure, electrical faults, brake and steering problems, and driver-assist systems that brake or drift on their own.

PROCESS & TIMELINE

Usually not. Most lemon law cases we handle for Southaven drivers settle with the manufacturer before a lawsuit is filed. In Mississippi, you must first use the manufacturer's informal dispute settlement procedure if it complies with 16 C.F.R. Part 703. We prepare that filing for you.

REMEDIES

Under Miss. Code §63-17-151 to §63-17-165, the remedy is a replacement vehicle or a full refund, minus a reasonable offset for use. Which one you get depends on your repair history and on what the manufacturer offers.

In Mississippi, a consumer who wins may recover attorney's fees from the manufacturer. We work on contingency, so you pay nothing upfront and there is no attorney's fee unless we recover for you. When a manufacturer settles or loses, we ask it to pay our fee on top of your recovery. The federal Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act (15 U.S.C. §2310(d)) adds a second fee-shifting route when a written warranty is breached. Our fee agreement is one page.

“I honestly didn't think I had a case. My Subaru's engine consumed a quart of oil every 1,000 miles. Dealer said it was 'within spec.' Did that three times. I just figured I'd live with it.
My brother-in-law, a mechanic, said 'that's not normal for a modern engine. Call someone.' So I did. I spoke to Steven Nassi at Easy Lemon.
He explained that excessive oil consumption is a known defect in certain Subaru engines. He'd handled similar cases. He said, 'They tell you it's normal because they don't want to replace the short block.' He already knew the internal service bulletins.
His team filed the claim. Subaru settled with a cash payment that covered my oil expenses and then some. I was genuinely surprised it worked.
Why different? Steven saw a pattern I didn't know existed. They don't just take cases; they know manufacturer secrets.”

“My Tesla Model Y had three things wrong that the service center couldn't fix: 1) Phantom braking on highway. 2) Passenger door handle wouldn't present half the time. 3) Rattling from the rear seat area they blamed on 'road noise.' I had service invoices showing four attempts on the brakes, two on the handle, and three on the rattle. Called Easy Lemon. Aaron Waldo took it. He didn't treat them as three small problems. He argued they collectively impaired the vehicle's safety and value. Manufacturer settled with a cash payout plus extended warranty on the remaining issues. They bundle your headaches into one real case."”
