What are the Florida Lemon Laws?

Answer:
Florida, where citrus abounds, has Lemon Laws

too, which protect consumers against new vehicles not conforming to manufacturers' express warranties, and the Lemon Laws give Florida consumers a measure of confidence that their new motor vehicle purchase is sort of "guaranteed" under State Lemon Laws.

Of course, the consumer must first allow reasonable attempts to be made to bring the vehicle into conformity before manufacturers must refund money or replace vehicles, and the consumer must file an official complaint to the manufacturer within the express warranty limitations or other time constraints, as spelled out in the Lemon Laws. Failure to follow the details in the Lemon Laws could jeopardize protection under them.

Florida Lemon Laws are described in the Florida Code as follows:

Florida (FL) Lemon Law
Title XXXIX, Chapter 681
Motor Vehicle Warranty Enforcement Act

Florida Lemon Laws do not specify any coverage for used vehicles.
