How your Michigan claim gets built

Our lemon law work is directed by Steven P. Nassi, Esq., Managing Partner, Easy Lemon by RockPoint Law P.C. A Michigan claim gets built on two things: the Michigan lemon law statute, and the federal Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, which applies in all fifty states. Send the repair orders and the purchase or lease paperwork, and we can tell you which of the two fits your vehicle.

Warren Lemon Law

Warren Lemon Law Basics

The law that applies in Warren is Michigan's lemon law, Mich. Comp. Laws §257.1401 to §257.1410, and it covers new motor vehicles purchased or leased in Michigan primarily for personal, family, or household use. You may have a claim if your repair orders reach one of the repair limits in the box above while the defect is still there. Michigan's lemon law sets no filing deadline of its own; defects must first be reported within the express warranty term or 1 year from delivery, whichever is earlier. The statute text, the filing deadlines and the rules on used cars are on our Michigan Lemon Law Attorneys page.

Step by Step

How a Warren Lemon Law Claim Works

This is what happens after you call us from Warren.

1

Document Your Repairs

Keep every repair order from your Warren dealership, even the short ones. Under Michigan's lemon law, those papers are the written proof of each repair attempt.

2

Free Case Evaluation

We read your repair history against the Michigan statute and tell you whether the car qualifies. The review costs nothing, and there are no attorney's fees unless we recover for you.

3

We File the Claim

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

4

You Get Compensated

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

Mich. Comp. Laws §257.1401 to §257.1410

Is Your Warren Car a Lemon? Michigan's 3-Step Test

1

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

Under Michigan law, the defect has to substantially impair the vehicle's use, value, or safety. These defects came up in one of Easy Lemon's own Michigan cases:

  • ⚠️2024 Kia EV9: High-voltage battery failure
  • ⚠️2024 Kia EV9: Front motor MCU inverter failure
  • ⚠️2024 Kia EV9: Complete electric power loss
  • ⚠️2024 Kia EV9: Steering column lockup
2

Have You Met the Repair Attempt Threshold?

In Michigan the test is 4 repair attempts for the same defect or 30 cumulative calendar days out of service, within the period described in step 3. Count the visits on your repair orders to see where you stand.

3

Did It Happen Within the Rights Period?

The Michigan lemon law does not set its own deadline to sue, but defects must first be reported within the express warranty term or 1 year from 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.

Macomb County

Court and Venue in Warren

Warren is in Macomb County. Macomb County's general civil trial court is the 16th Circuit Court, which covers Macomb County. Michigan also has a lower court for smaller civil claims, so the amount in dispute can change where a case is filed. Which court hears a particular case still depends on its facts, the warranty issues involved and the law it is brought under.

The Michigan lemon law is Mich. Comp. Laws §257.1401 to §257.1410. If the manufacturer's arbitration program is state-certified, the consumer must use it.

The repair test in the statute is 4 repair attempts for the same defect, or 30 cumulative calendar 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.

What the Statute Says

Michigan Lemon Law - New Motor Vehicle Warranties Act: The Rules That Decide a Warren Claim

Michigan law sets a repair test and says whether arbitration comes first, and Court and Venue above already explains both. Here are a few of its other rules.

Notable provisions of Michigan Lemon Law - New Motor Vehicle Warranties Act

Michigan requires written notice to the manufacturer, and the manufacturer gets a final repair attempt. The law covers vehicles purchased for personal use.

Your Rights Under Michigan Law

What The Manufacturer Owes You

Under Michigan law the remedy is a replacement vehicle or a full refund, minus a reasonable offset for use. A qualifying case from Warren usually closes in one of these three ways.

$

Refund

The car goes back to the manufacturer, which returns what you paid, with the taxes, registration fees and finance charges, less a reasonable use offset.

Replacement Vehicle

The manufacturer swaps your car for a comparable new one and pays for the exchange.

$

Cash Settlement

You hold on to the car and are paid for the value the defect cost you. This one is not in the statute. It is negotiated.

Have Questions?

Frequently Asked Questions

The answers below are based on Michigan law and on the paperwork Warren drivers usually send us.

PROCESS & TIMELINE
Bring the repair orders from your Warren 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.
ELIGIBILITY
Mich. Comp. Laws §257.1401 to §257.1410 covers new motor vehicles purchased or leased in Michigan primarily 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.
REMEDIES
Under Mich. Comp. Laws §257.1401 to §257.1410, 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.
ATTORNEY & TRUST
No. Our offices are in Manhasset NY, Newark NJ, Miami FL and Dallas TX. We handle Michigan 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 Mich. Comp. Laws §257.1401 to §257.1410 requires you to appear anywhere to open a claim.
Nothing upfront, and no attorney's fee unless we recover for you. In Michigan, the court may award a consumer who prevails costs and reasonable attorney fees. When a manufacturer settles, we ask it to pay our fee on top of your recovery. 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.
Client Testimonials

What Our Clients Are Saying

Easy Lemon has handled 3,000+ lemon law cases‡.

star star star star star
“My Dodge Challenger's fuel gauge would read empty when the tank was full. Dealer replaced the sending unit, then the whole fuel pump assembly. Same problem. I ran out of gas twice because I thought I had fuel. Stupid design. Called Easy Lemon and they said a safety feature like fuel gauge failing is a big deal. They fought Dodge and got me a buyback. New car doesn't lie to me about how much gas I have.”

“My Dodge Challenger's AC would blow hot air on the driver side but cold on passenger. Dealer recharged it twice, replaced a blend door actuator once. Problem came back every time. I was sweating through my shirt in August. Called Easy Lemon and Aaron Waldo said a climate control issue that makes driving uncomfortable counts. His team fought Dodge and got me a cash settlement. Got it fixed at a local shop and the AC has been cold ever since.”

“My Honda Pilot's backup camera would go black right when I needed it. Dealer replaced it once. Broke again. Replaced it again. Third time they said 'they're working on it.' I have kids, I need that camera. Called Easy Lemon and Natalie Nassi said a safety feature failing repeatedly counts. She filed the claim and Honda settled with cash. Got it fixed at an independent shop and pocketed the rest. Camera's been fine since.”
