Lemon Law

A Gray Market Vehicle is a vehicle that is normally sold in the United States with an express written warranty, but has been imported through a channel other than a manufacturer’s authorized distributor, and therefore does not have an express warranty that is valid in the United States.

If a vehicle was repurchased under the California Lemon Law for a defect by either the vehicle's manufacturer or dealer, then the Vehicle's Manufacturer is required to brand that Vehicle's Title as a "Lemon Law Buyback" and to affix a "Lemon Law Buyback" decal to the vehicle.

Got a lemon on your hands?

Maybe you had never heard of a vehicle being referred to as a “lemon” until the unfortunate day you realized your new warranty-protected car had a serious defect that the manufacturer could not seem to fix.
