If you have purchased a defective RV, then federal RV lemon laws were made to protect people like you. If the manufacturer or dealer is unable to repair the RV to meet the terms of the warranty after a reasonable number of repair attempts, the manufacturer is required promptly to replace the vehicle or refund your money. Many times however, dealerships fail to make amends for the defective RV that they have sold to a consumer.

Some of the types of Recreational Vehicles (RVs) that are protected under the lemon law include:

• Class A Motorhomes
• Class B Motorhome
• Class C Motorhome
• Fifth Wheel Trailer
• Travel Trailer

While some brands and models of RV have worse quality track records than others, any make or model of RV can be a lemon – even the most recent and most expensive types. Here are just a few kinds of RVs that could have chronic mechanical or electric issues unable to be helped by dealerships:

• Fleetwood
• Winnebago
• Polaris
• Monaco
• Country Coach
• Gulf Stream
• Itasca
• National RV
• Alfa
• Alpine
• Prevost
• Travel Supreme
• Forest River
• All American Group
• Jayco
• Airstream
• Holiday Rambler
• Other makes of recreational vehicles

Note that these are just a few examples of the makes and models of RVs that could be lemons – even if your RV is not on this list, you could have a valid case. Also note that both new, used, and leased RVs are covered under the lemon law, as long as your vehicle is under warranty.

Getting an RV means investing in relaxation, recreation, and transportation. It’s a wonderful way to vacation with your family, see the world, and go on adventures. And for many Americans it a dream to have an RV in their retirement years. Getting an RV means less stress, more memories, and a limitless number of trips.

However, for far too many consumers a lemon RV can ruin these dreams. A lemon RV can mean that you get stranded away from home, or that you can’t leave home at all. In addition, some lemon RVs can have mechanical or electrical problems that make the RV dangerous to drive – for the driver, the passengers, and others on the road. This can cut trips short or stop them from happening at all.

Does your RV have a recurring problem that affect the use, value, or safety of the vehicle? Have you tried to bring your RV in for repairs multiple times, or for extended periods of time, with unsatisfactory results? If so, you might own a lemon recreational vehicle. However, in some cases, your RV might not be covered by the lemon law. Here are a few reasons that you might not be able to get a refund or replacement:

• The defect with your RV has not undergone a reasonable amount of repair attempts by the dealer or manufacturer, and/or the RV has not spent a significant amount of time in the shop yet.
• The defect on your RV or motorhome is not considered a material defect. In other words, the defect does not affect the use, value, or safety of your vehicle.
• Your RV does not have a valid express warranty.
• You have known (or should have known) about the possible lemon status of your RV for over four years.
• Your RV is a company vehicle and your company owns or leases more than five vehicles.
• Your RV defect was caused by an accident or misuse of the vehicle.
• Your RV defect involves an aftermarket part.
• Your RV defect was due to a lack of necessary maintenance.
• Your RV defect was due to normal and ordinary wear and tear.

The single best way to know if your RV could qualify as a lemon – and if you deserve a refund or replacement under the law – is to speak with a knowledgeable California Lemon RVs attorney today.

When it comes to all types of vehicles, including recreational vehicles, you have four years to file your California RV lemon law case. This countdown starts on the day that you knew or should have known that you owned a lemon. After the four-year mark, you cannot legally get a refund or reimbursement for your lemon RV – but keep in mind that the date that you should have known you had a lemon can be argued in court.

It is always better to file your claim sooner rather than later. There are a number of reasons for this:

• If you delay, you could miss your window to file.
• If you delay, it may be more difficult to locate key evidence for your case.
• The manufacturer could argue that your RV’s defect is not a serious, material defect.
• The manufacturer could argue that you knew about your RV’s lemon status earlier than you claim, and that the window to file has passed.
• If you delay, you have to spend more of your time dealing with owning a lemon.
