Electric Vehicles – The “Shocking” Truth
We here at CaliforniaLemonLawExpert.com have seen an uptick in the number of defective Electric Vehicles that result in valid Lemon Law claims. If you’ve recently purchased or leased an Electric Vehicle (EV), perhaps you have experienced some of the more common issues / problems our clients and customers face.
With the Tesla brand in particular, our clients have reported a variety of issues including faulty screens, body and door fitment problems, inability to communicate with smartphones, and false range issues. Earlier this year, a massive Tesla recall was initiated after concerns of the FSD (Full Self Driving) software system was unsafe. Another major concern is the accuracy of the range readout. “Electric vehicle range anxiety” can be a big deal when you are on a road trip, wondering if the indicated range is accurate enough to give you confidence that you’re going to make it to your destination and / or charging station.
Please remember: if you have a vehicle AND it is under the manufacturer’s warranty, you are entitled to fair treatment and getting the problem fixed in a timely manner. In many cases, the manufacturer will repurchase your vehicle, and may even have to pay civil penalties and or reimbursement of your expenses. It helps to understand your rights as a consumer, and the California Lemon Law expert is here to help you or someone you may know who is in this situation. If your vehicle is not functioning properly and is under warranty, you have rights under the law that you need to thoroughly understand.
