Santa Clara Lemon Law Attorneys

Yes. California Lemon Law applies equally to electric vehicles, plug-in hybrids, and traditional gas-powered cars. Santa Clara and the broader Silicon Valley have among the highest EV adoption rates in the country. We regularly handle claims involving battery degradation, charging system failures, autopilot malfunctions, and software defects in electric and hybrid vehicles from all manufacturers.

Not at all. High mileage from commuting on US-101, CA-237, or the Lawrence Expressway does not disqualify you from a Lemon Law claim. California law protects you as long as the defect occurred during the warranty period. In fact, the demanding Silicon Valley commute often surfaces drivetrain and electrical defects that might take longer to appear under lighter driving conditions.

The process begins with a free consultation where we review your repair history and warranty coverage. If your vehicle qualifies, we send a demand to the manufacturer and negotiate for a buyback, replacement, or cash settlement. Most Santa Clara cases resolve within 60 to 120 days. You pay nothing out of pocket — the manufacturer covers all attorney fees and costs when we prevail.

Yes. Software defects, including infotainment system crashes, driver-assist malfunctions, and over-the-air update failures, are increasingly common Lemon Law issues in Santa Clara and Silicon Valley. If a software problem substantially impairs your vehicle's use, value, or safety, and the manufacturer has been unable to fix it after reasonable attempts, you have a valid claim under California law.
