A vehicle is deemed to have met the repair attempts requirement when it has been out of service by reason of repair for at least a total of 30 days. In this event, you count the cumulative days out of service instead of individual repair attempts. The vehicle may be out of service for the repair of one or more defects.

The new(2016-2023 model years) motor vehicle must have multiple, ongoing defects and/or issues, or 1 serious safety defect. If the vehicle has been out of service for 30 or more days, you may also qualify. The car should have had repeated, unsuccessful repair attempts by the dealer, or an authorized repair facility.

The Georgia Lemon Law is a self-help statute whose primary goal is to have the manufacturer of your motor vehicle fix any defects. If your vehicle cannot be repaired in a reasonable number of attempts and is found to be a "lemon," the law requires the manufacturer to replace or buy back (repurchase) the vehicle.

Pursuant to the Georgia Lemon Law [O.C.G.A. Section 10-1-791(a)], a fee of $3.00 shall be collected by every dealer from each consumer at the completion of the sale or lease of a new motor vehicle.

Only new motor vehicles are covered by the Georgia Lemon Law. This means new, self-propelled vehicles that are primarily designed to transport people or property over public highways and were purchased, leased or registered in Georgia on or after January 1, 2009.

Georgia's Lemon Law only applies to ?new motor vehicles? and motorcycles are specifically exempted from that definition under the law.
