Wyoming Lemon Law Attorneys
You Can Get a Cash Settlement, a Replacement Car, or a Refund with Easy Lemon
The Wyoming Lemon Law (Wyo. Stat. §40-17-101) requires manufacturers to repurchase or replace a new motor vehicle with a substantial defect after 4 repair attempts for the same defect (more than three, as the statute puts it) or 30 cumulative business days out of service. Under this statute, a consumer who prevails can recover attorney fees. You pay no attorney fees unless we recover for you. Easy Lemon represents Wyoming drivers at every stage.
How your Wyoming claim gets built
Our lemon law work is directed by Steven P. Nassi, Esq., Managing Partner, Easy Lemon by RockPoint Law P.C. A Wyoming claim gets built on two things: the Wyoming 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.
Read Steven Nassi’s full bio →Is Your Car a Lemon?
Your car may be a lemon if it keeps going back to the dealer or the mechanic for the same problem. Under Wyoming law, the defect must make the car unsafe, unreliable or worth much less. The manufacturer or dealer must also have failed to fix it after 4 repair attempts for the same defect (more than three, as the statute puts it) or 30 cumulative business days out of service.
The same noise, shaking or warning light keeps coming back.
The dealer has worked on it multiple times and the problem is still there.
Understanding Wyoming's Lemon Law
Wyoming's Lemon Law is found at Wyo. Stat. §40-17-101 and sets the rules for defective new vehicles in the state.
How Wyoming's Lemon Law Process Works

Ask for a repair order every time you visit a Wyoming dealer, even if the technician finds nothing. Under Wyo. Stat. §40-17-101, these papers prove your repair attempts. Keep every receipt and work order.

Get a Free Case Review →Wyoming Lemon Law Arbitration
Wyoming requires you to use the manufacturer's arbitration program if one is available, while the federal Magnuson-Moss Act requires it before a lawsuit only if the written warranty makes you use a program that meets FTC rules. So on a Wyoming file the first thing we check is whether your manufacturer has a program, and the general questions about these programs are answered in our lemon law FAQ.
When can a Wyoming arbitration program hear my case?
A program can take it once the repair history meets the Wyo. Stat. §40-17-101 threshold: 4 attempts for the same defect (the statute says "more than three") or 30 cumulative business days out of service. The written notice also has to have gone to the manufacturer by certified mail, because the statute makes it a prerequisite. We do the filing and send the repair orders and the purchase or lease contract in with it.
How long does a program take?
Each program sets its own schedule.
Does the program have the last word?
Often it binds the manufacturer. You generally keep the right to go to civil court, but appeal deadlines vary, and that's why we'd rather have a copy of the decision the day it shows up. If the program doesn't resolve things, either side can file a civil suit, and which Wyoming court would usually hear it is covered in the Statute-Cited Answers below.
Wyoming Lemon Law vs Federal Magnuson-Moss
Most Wyoming cases benefit from invoking both statutes. We check each case under §40-17-101 and under the federal Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act (15 U.S.C. §2301) and use the stronger one.
Wyoming Lemon Law
Wyoming requires 4 repair attempts for the same defect (the statute says "more than three") or 30 cumulative business days out of service, and the claim has to be filed within 1 year following original delivery of the vehicle. The law reaches new motor vehicles purchased or leased in Wyoming for personal, family, or household use. If the manufacturer has an arbitration program you have to go through it, and a consumer who prevails may recover attorney fees.
Magnuson-Moss and a reasonable number of attempts
The federal act doesn't count visits or business days. It just asks for a "reasonable number" of repair attempts, and what's reasonable depends on the facts. Wyoming's window shuts one year after delivery, but Magnuson-Moss sets no filing deadline of its own and covers defects during the express warranty, so it can reach a defect outside the Wyoming lemon law period. Magnuson-Moss applies to any product under a written warranty, and that is why used cars often qualify.
Federal law requires arbitration before a lawsuit only if the written warranty makes you use a program that meets FTC rules. A case under either law can be heard in state or federal court, and the federal fee rule is 15 U.S.C. §2310(d)(2).
Wyoming Lemon Law: Statute-Cited Answers
What counts as a reasonable number of repair attempts under §40-17-101?
The Wyoming statute says "more than three" repair attempts for the same defect (so 4) or 30 cumulative business days out of service. We count each attempt from a dealer repair order, and that is why it helps to ask for one every time, even when the technician finds nothing. Separately, the claim still has to be filed within 1 year following original delivery of the vehicle.
What do Wyoming lemon law attorneys need from you?
We start with the repair orders, all of them, and after that we need
- the purchase or lease contract, which shows the delivery date the year runs from
- the warranty booklet, which shows the express warranty
- emails, texts and letters with the dealer or manufacturer
- receipts for towing, rentals and lodging, since those costs are often recoverable
It helps to write down the date, the mileage and the symptom each time the problem shows up. You can also look up your VIN for recall notices at nhtsa.gov/recalls.
Which Wyoming court hears a lemon law case if arbitration fails?
If arbitration doesn't settle it, either side can file a civil suit, and a Wyoming lemon law suit usually goes to the state's court of general jurisdiction in the Wyoming county where you live or where the car was sold. Federal District Court is also possible for a Magnuson-Moss claim if damages exceed $50,000 or party diversity permits it (15 U.S.C. §2310(d)(1)). In the end, which court hears a particular case depends on its facts, the warranty issues involved and the law it is brought under.
Does Wyoming require written notice to the manufacturer?
Wyoming requires the notice in writing, sent by certified mail under §40-17-101, and our office writes it, mails it and keeps the receipt.
How is the buyback mileage offset worked out in Wyoming?
The refund comes minus a reasonable use offset for the miles you drove, and each state counts those miles its own way. Say one manufacturer divides your mileage by 100,000 and another divides by 120,000. The one using 100,000 takes more off your refund, and that is the math we check before anything gets signed. Registration, taxes and finance charges usually come back to you in the refund, and so do towing or rental costs. Attorney fees get paid apart from the buyback.
