Florida Lemon Law
Florida's Lemon Law applies to NEW or demonstrator vehicles sold or long-term leased in the state of Florida.
If you have purchased or leased a new or dealer demo vehicle, make sure you familiarize yourself with Florida’s Lemon Law. It is the dealer or lessor’s responsibility to provide the buyer with the "Consumer Guide to the Florida Lemon Law" during the sale or lease of a new or demonstrator automobile. This booklet explains consumer rights, offers advice to resolve problems, provides the toll-free Lemon Law Hotline number, and includes a form that allows the buyer to contact the manufacturer about any persistent defects.
If you would like a copy of the "Consumer Guide to the Florida Lemon Law" or wish to speak to someone about your rights, Florida residents can call the Lemon Law Hotline at 1-800-321-5366. Non-Florida residents should call 1-850-488-2221. The call center is open from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Eastern time.
Note: The above information is in reference to vehicles obtained on or after October 1, 1997.
