The California Lemon Law (Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act) protects consumers who purchase or lease defective vehicles that cannot be repaired after a reasonable number of attempts. If your car qualifies as a lemon, you may be entitled to a refund, replacement, or cash compensation.
Your Toyota may qualify as a lemon if: 1) The defect is substantial and affects safety, value, or use, 2) The Toyota dealership has had a reasonable number of repair attempts, 3) The issue is covered under the original Toyota warranty
California law does not specify an exact number, but generally: At least two repairs for serious safety defects (like brake or airbag failures), Four or more repair attempts for the same issue, or if the Toyota has been in the shop for 30+ days (cumulative).
