Fisker Ronin Lemon Law

Yes. The Song-Beverly Act applies equally to all new motor vehicles purchased or leased in California, regardless of vehicle type or performance category. The Fisker Ronin is fully covered under the same consumer protections as any other new vehicle. High purchase price vehicles may result in larger refund or replacement values.

Yes. A malfunctioning convertible top that cannot be reliably operated constitutes a substantial impairment of use and value under Song-Beverly. If the roof mechanism repeatedly fails and the manufacturer cannot fix it within a reasonable number of attempts, you have grounds for a lemon law claim. Water damage resulting from the defect may increase your damages.

The refund under Song-Beverly is based on the actual purchase or lease price of the vehicle, so a higher-priced Ronin results in a proportionally larger refund. All taxes, registration fees, finance charges, and incidental costs are also recoverable. The mileage offset is calculated as a fraction of the total purchase price.

If the thermal throttling occurs under normal driving conditions and significantly impairs the performance the vehicle was marketed to deliver, it may qualify as a substantial defect under Song-Beverly. Document each instance including ambient temperature, driving mode, and duration. Repeated occurrences that the manufacturer cannot resolve strengthen your claim.
