Ohio Motorcycle Lemon Law
If you have a lemon motorcycle, then the Ohio
Lemon Law will cover you. Under the Ohio Lemon Law you are
entitled to a replacement motorcycle or all your money back.
If the manufacturer does not agree to do it, then you can
also make him pay your attorney fees if you have to fight
them in court.
Every state has a Lemon Law and most will cover
a motorcycle. Ohio’s Motorcycle Lemon Law is one of
the strongest in the country.
Ohio’s Motorcycle Lemon Law has five
definitions of a lemon bike.
First, did the manufacturer live up to the
warranty for the life of the warranty? In other words did
they fix every defect within a reasonable amount of time?
Did they fix every defect within a reasonable number of chances?
If the answer is “no” to either question, then
you have a lemon.
In addition to that definition of a lemon bike,
the Ohio Motorcycle Lemon Law has four more definitions of
a lemon bike. If you fit any definition, then you are entitled
to a new motorcycle or your money back, but these definitions
only apply during the first 18,000 miles of use or within
the first year after the motorcycle is sold in “new” condition.
Number one, did the same
defect occur three times without getting repaired at the
end of the third attempt?
Number two, was your motorcycle
in the shop for warranty repairs of defects for a total
of 30 days or more? Be sure to count weekends and holidays,
if they had your motorcycle then.
Number three, did your bike
have nine different defects or more than that? Eight is
the maximum number of defects allowed under the Ohio Motorcycle
Lemon Law.
Number four, did your bike
have a “deadly” defect that did not get fixed
on the very first attempt? A bad motorcycle can be a lot
more dangerous to ride than a bad car or truck. Because
of that, the manufacturer only gets one chance to fix a
defect that is so serious that it is likely to cause an
accident or someone to get hurt if the defect is not fixed
on the very first attempt.
You only need to fit any one of these five
different definitions of a lemon motorcycle. If you do, then
you have a right to make the manufacturer give you a new
motorcycle that runs right or to give you back your money.
