Genesis G90 Ultimate Lemon Law

Yes. Under Song-Beverly, a defect that substantially impairs the value of the vehicle qualifies for a lemon law claim. The executive rear seat with power recliner is a signature feature of the G90 Ultimate and a significant component of its premium pricing. Its inoperability substantially diminishes the vehicle's intended value and use.

Yes. Under Song-Beverly, a defect that could cause death or serious bodily injury, such as a park-by-wire failure allowing the vehicle to roll, requires only one repair attempt before the presumption of lemon status applies. You should immediately document the failure, cease using the vehicle if unsafe, and contact a lemon law attorney.

Yes. California lemon law attorneys work on contingency because Song-Beverly requires the manufacturer to pay the prevailing consumer's attorney fees and costs. The high value of your G90 Ultimate actually makes your case more attractive to attorneys, as the potential recovery is significant. You should not have to pay any upfront legal fees.

No. Under Song-Beverly, if you elect a replacement vehicle, the manufacturer must provide a vehicle that is identical or substantially identical to your original vehicle. A base G90 is not substantially identical to a G90 Ultimate with its executive rear seats, advanced features, and premium equipment. You are entitled to a comparable replacement or a full refund.
