Boat Lemon Laws

Legal Article Guide
By: Damian Sofsian

Have you purchased a boat lately? A jet ski, maybe? Whatever watercraft you may have purchased, as long as the craft is under two years old, you may be able to apply the lemon law if it is repeatedly experiencing some defects.

As long as the defect in your watercraft is covered by the manufacturer’s warranty, all you have to do is allow the manufacturer substantial opportunity to make the necessary repair to the defective boat. If after several attempts to remedy the problem in your craft you are still unable to find a solution to the problem, under the lemon law, you are given the right to demand an outright replacement with a new boat or a refund for the purchase you made.

Before filing a lawsuit, you have to be aware of the lemon law in your state. The laws that exist vary from state to state. Also, you have to make sure that you meet all the requirements before filing a case. It does not matter which part of the boat contains the defect; as long as it meets the criteria, you have a case. The defect must be covered by the manufacturer’s warranty; the manufacturer should be given the opportunity to fix the defect of the boat and each time the remedy is tried, it has to fail. Additionally, the vehicle has to have been purchased within the number of years allowed by the state. If these criteria are met, then you can consider demanding compensation, a full refund, or a replacement vehicle from the manufacturer.

If the manufacturer is unwilling to comply with the lemon law, it would be best to hire a lawyer to defend your case. Even if your situation does not qualify under the lemon laws, there are attorneys who are able to claim damages for the manufacturer’s defects.
