Yes. A transmission that consistently fails to engage properly is a substantial safety defect under the Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act, as it can cause unexpected vehicle movement or failure to accelerate.

If the carbon buildup is causing drivability problems such as misfires and rough idle during the warranty period, it may constitute a substantial nonconformity regardless of the dealer's characterization. The Song-Beverly Act protects against defects that impair use, value, or safety. A manufacturer cannot avoid liability by reclassifying a warranty defect as a maintenance item.

The manufacturer is responsible for repairing both the root cause and any consequential damage. If the leak persists after repair attempts, you may have a valid lemon law claim.

Under California's Song-Beverly Act, the presumption is four repair attempts for the same defect or two attempts for a safety-related defect that could cause death or serious injury.
