Do You Qualify?
Four questions will help you find out in about a minute.
You Likely Qualify!
Your answers meet the basic lemon law test. Before anyone can confirm that your car qualifies, an attorney has to see the repair orders. We work on a contingency basis, and there are no attorney’s fees unless we recover for you.
You May Not Qualify Under Standard Lemon Law
The standard lemon law test does not seem to fit. Other consumer protection laws may still help with a car like yours. Contact us anyway.

Your Missouri lemon law attorney
Admitted in Missouri
Nicole Forsythe handles Missouri lemon law claims as Of Counsel, and she works out of Kansas City. She is admitted in Missouri and in Kansas, with a J.D. from the University of Missouri–Kansas City School of Law and an LL.M. in Taxation. Missouri counts out-of-service time in business days rather than calendar days, which catches people out. Thirty of those, or four repair attempts for the same defect, under Mo. Rev. Stat. §407.560. You have to notify the manufacturer in writing first, and it gets one last try to fix the car.

Is Your Wentzville Car a Lemon? Missouri's 3-Step Test
Does the Defect Substantially Impair Use, Value, or Safety?
Under Missouri law, the defect has to substantially impair the vehicle's use, value, or safety.
Have You Met the Repair Attempt Threshold?
In Missouri the test is 4 repair attempts for the same defect or 30 cumulative business 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 Missouri, a claim must be filed within 6 months after the express warranty expires or 18 months from original delivery, whichever is earlier, or within 90 days after the decision if you used the manufacturer's dispute program. 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.
Court and Venue in Wentzville
Wentzville is in St. Charles County. St. Charles County's general civil trial court is the Circuit Court of St. Charles County, part of the 11th Judicial Circuit. Which court hears a particular case still depends on its facts, the warranty issues involved and the law it is brought under.
The Missouri lemon law is Mo. Rev. Stat. §407.560 to §407.579. If the manufacturer's arbitration program is state-certified, the consumer must complete it first.
The repair test in the statute is 4 repair attempts for the same defect, or 30 cumulative business days with the vehicle out of service. The statutory remedy is a replacement vehicle or a full refund, minus a reasonable offset for use. Under the statute, a consumer who prevails can recover attorney fees from the manufacturer.
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 Manufacturer Owes You
Missouri law provides for a replacement vehicle or a full refund, minus a reasonable offset for use. There are three ways a qualifying case from Wentzville usually ends.
Refund
Give the car back and the manufacturer repays the price you paid, with the taxes, registration fees and finance charges. A reasonable use offset comes off that amount.
Replacement Vehicle
The manufacturer hands you a comparable new car and pays the cost of the exchange.
Cash Settlement
The car stays yours and the manufacturer pays for the value the defect took off it. You will not find this option in the statute. It is reached by negotiation.
