The Lemon Law is a state law that protects consumers who purchase new vehicles that turn out to be defective. The law allows consumers to return the vehicle to the manufacturer or dealer for a refund or replacement if the vehicle has a defect that cannot be repaired after a certain number of attempts.

To file a Lemon Law claim in Wisconsin, you must meet the following criteria:

• The vehicle must be new.
• The vehicle must be purchased from a Wisconsin dealer.
• The vehicle must have a defect that substantially impairs its use, value, or safety.
• The manufacturer or dealer must have had a reasonable opportunity to repair the defect, but the defect has not been repaired after a certain number of attempts.

The number of repair attempts required to qualify for a Lemon Law claim varies depending on the type of defect. If you believe that your vehicle is a lemon, you should contact the manufacturer or dealer to file a Lemon Law claim. The manufacturer or dealer may be able to repair the defect or replace the vehicle. If the manufacturer or dealer is unable or unwilling to repair or replace the vehicle, you may be able to file a lawsuit in court.
