3 days of "entire nav and sound system now completely inoperable" out of, say, 30 days of lemon law window, would theoretically qualify as both persistent and unreasonable in a new car — if the selling dealership says they are unable to resolve the issue, and they are unable to provide a timeline for resolution of the issue, when asked.
This would be less arguable if the manufacturer simply shipped the same nav+audio in all cars worldwide, but since they usually reserve this sort of thing for "fancy expensive upgrade options", selling a fancy option that goes dead within a week and stays dead without a timeline for repair is quite in-scope for Lemon concerns.
- Aloha 9y agoThis wouldn't qualify under the California Lemon Law - it may very well take a dealer more than three days to diagnose the issue, for example, in this case, the diagnosis is occurring at the manufacturer, and a fix being worked out. It would be another thing entirely, if the issue kept occurring, repeatedly over months, and the manufacturer was unwilling or unable to repair it.
- notyourwork 9y agoMy parents went through a lemon law case on a Corvette related to the electronic system and alarm. The car would either set off alarm or electronic system wouldn't start the car. It took them 5 tows, hours of phone calls and a few trips to the dealer before GM was willing to accept. Lemon law exists but its not as simple as my car rebooted last few days, take it back.
