Appliance Lemon Law

Stove Lemon Laws

Breach-of-warranty laws exist at both the state and federal levels, and are distinct from one another. Most people are somewhat familiar with their state's lemon laws in relation to the purchase of a car, truck, or similar vehicle.

While consumer rights vary from state to state, it is quite common for the scope of state consumer protection laws to be limited to vehicles and specific warranties on the sale of newly sold or leased vehicles. However, consumers who have purchased defective products, including appliances such as stoves, could be entitled to recovery and compensation through a federal law called the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act.

FAQ

Understanding Federal Laws for Defective Appliances

A breach-of-warranty lawsuit can be filed under Magnuson-Moss. The law is broader in scope than the traditional lemon laws at the state level because it allows consumers to recover compensation for defective appliances.
The item must have a substantial defect that is covered by a warranty and could not be fixed after a reasonable number of attempts. If that is the case, your warranty is considered breached, and you are entitled to receive a full refund or a replacement. In the event that you have tried to pursue this route on your own with your manufacturer and they have refused to give you a refund or replacement, you can initiate a consumer protection lawsuit.
Getting a Lawyer Could Help Your Breach-of-Warranty Case

It might be tempting to try to deal with the manufacturer on your own. But in many cases, they will try to discourage you from continuing with a claim. In these circumstances, the support of an experienced breach-of-warranty lawyer can be instrumental in receiving compensation. And they might even be able to recover more funds than if you pursue this by yourself.
Magnuson-Moss Requires the Manufacturer to Pay for Your Case

The fee-shifting provision of the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act requires the manufacturer to cover reasonable attorneys’ fees if the plaintiff wins their case. As a result, our attorneys at Morgan & Morgan will work with you for free. Our fee comes from the manufacturer if we win your case.

“ Jerri ”

Unbelievably organized, responsive and probably the most effective process-oriented group of people I've ever seen. Their preparation for mediation and trial is beyond comprehensive. Across two cases and 3 years, not once did anything fall between the cracks. Everyone I came into contact with exemplifies professionalism; they quickly resolved insurance issues and spent time educating me about everything affecting my cases.

“ Rupdai ”

It has been an amazing experience with your law firm. I will be happy to refer any of my family and friends to your law firm. I am very thankful to Sabrina Thornburg and Andrew Felix for everything that they have done on my case. Sabrina kept in touch with me to let me know how everything was going and I am very happy with the service that she and Andrew provided. Your slogan really is true, you are for the people. Thank you.

“ Alejandro ”

I was very happy with the communication between the legal counsel and myself. If I had any questions I could leave it if not directly and I would have an answer within 24 hours by either email or a courtesy phone call. Also, the quick resolution of the matter was something I appreciate very much. Needless to say the result was more than expected.

“ Jasmine ”

I originally hired a different law firm after being involved in a multi-car accident on the interstate, but after a few conversations, arguments, and showing me other cases were more important than mine, I called and hired Morgan & Morgan! That was one of the best decisions I've made as an adult! Not only have they been in contact with me, but they listened and found mistakes in the crash report that the officer didn't want to admit to! I'm beyond thankful!
