Why Do You Need a Lemon Law Attorney in Washington?
Washington’s Motor Vehicle Lemon Law (RCW Ch. 19.118) covers new motor vehicles for 2 years or 24,000 miles, and provides for refund or replacement when the manufacturer cannot repair a substantial defect after 4 attempts (2 for serious safety defects), or the vehicle has been out of service for 30 cumulative calendar days. Washington’s law is among the strongest in the West — combined state arbitration (administered by the Attorney General) and judicial remedies, plus the Washington Consumer Protection Act (RCW Ch. 19.86) with treble damages up to $25,000. Washington’s EV market is one of the largest per capita in the country. An experienced attorney layers these statutes with the federal Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act (15 U.S.C. § 2301).

Most Washington lemon law attorneys take cases with no fee deducted from the consumer’s refund or replacement.
