Trumbull Lemon Law

Trumbull Lemon Law Basics

In Trumbull, as anywhere else in Connecticut, a lemon law claim is brought under Conn. Gen. Stat. §42-179. The statute covers new motor vehicles purchased or leased in Connecticut 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 Connecticut 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 any written notice to the manufacturer that CT law requires. We deal with the manufacturer for you.

You Get Compensated

The case ends with a refund, a replacement vehicle or a cash settlement. There are no attorney's fees unless we recover for you.

Conn. Gen. Stat. §42-179

Is Your Trumbull Car a Lemon? Connecticut's 3-Step Test

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

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

Have You Met the Repair Attempt Threshold?

In Connecticut the test is 4 repair attempts for the same defect (or 2 for serious safety defects), or 30 cumulative calendar days out of service, as long as the claim is brought within the deadline in step 3. For a defect that could cause serious bodily injury or death, 2 repair attempts are enough. Count the visits on your repair orders to see where you stand.

Did It Happen Within the Rights Period?

The Connecticut lemon law does not set its own deadline to sue, but defects must be reported within 2 years or 24,000 miles from original delivery, whichever is earlier. We check it 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 are past the deadline, call us anyway. We may still be able to help.

Fairfield County

Court and Venue in Trumbull

Trumbull is in Fairfield County, but Connecticut assigns civil cases by town, not county. The Judicial Branch's town list places Trumbull in the Bridgeport Judicial District of the Connecticut Superior Court, the state's trial court for 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 Connecticut lemon law is Conn. Gen. Stat. §42-179. The claim must go through the state-run arbitration program of the Department of Consumer Protection.

The repair test in the statute is 4 repair attempts for the same defect (or 2 for serious safety defects), or 30 cumulative calendar days with the vehicle out of service. The statutory remedy is a replacement vehicle, full refund, or monetary damages. 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.

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.

Have Questions?

Frequently Asked Questions

The answers below are based on Connecticut law and on the paperwork Trumbull drivers usually send us.

PROCESS & TIMELINE

Most of the Connecticut cases we handle settle at the written-demand stage, without a lawsuit. How long that takes depends on your repair history and on the manufacturer. The Connecticut lemon law does not set its own filing deadline, but defects must be reported within 2 years or 24,000 miles from original delivery, whichever is earlier.

Bring the repair orders from your Trumbull dealer, your purchase or lease contract and your warranty booklet. Of the three, the repair orders carry the case. Each one shows the date, the mileage and what the service department did or did not fix. If a few are missing, ask the service desk for copies.

Usually not. Most lemon law cases we handle for Trumbull drivers settle with the manufacturer before a lawsuit is filed. On arbitration, the Connecticut rule is: must use state-run arbitration program through the Department of Consumer Protection. We prepare that filing for you.

ELIGIBILITY

It may. Under Conn. Gen. Stat. §42-179, your Trumbull car can qualify if a defect covered by the warranty is still there after 4 repair attempts for the same defect (or 2 for serious safety defects), or 30 cumulative calendar days out of service. The statute covers new motor vehicles purchased or leased in Connecticut for personal, family, or household use.

ATTORNEY & TRUST

No. Our offices are in Manhasset NY, Newark NJ, Miami FL and Dallas TX. We handle Connecticut cases by phone, email and e-signature. You upload your repair orders, your contract and your warranty booklet. We send the demand letter and handle the settlement paperwork. Nothing in Conn. Gen. Stat. §42-179 requires you to appear anywhere to open a claim. On arbitration, the Connecticut rule is: must use state-run arbitration program through the Department of Consumer Protection.

Nothing upfront, and no attorney's fee unless we recover for you. In Connecticut, the court may award a consumer who prevails costs and reasonable attorney fees. In most successful Connecticut claims, the manufacturer pays our fee. Repair orders are free from the dealer. We pay the filing costs while the case is open. To start, send us the repair orders for a free case review.

“I had a good experience with Easy lemon. I had bought a used truck that had transmission issues before I even got it home. After a year of the dealership giving me the runaround, I reached out to Easy Lemon. It was a drawn out process dealing with the vehicle manufacturer. We got it done and I am happy with the results. Thanks to Vanessa, Antonio, Fabio, and the rest of the team that made this possible.”
