Since cars can be expensive,\nlemon laws\nwere enacted to give consumers more peace of mind when purchasing new car. New York lemon laws give consumers 18 months or 18,000 miles from the date of purchase, whichever comes first, to return their vehicle for a full refund if it is determined to be a lemon.\nWhat is a Lemon According to New York Law?\nA\nnew car that fails to conform\nto the terms of its written warranty and is unable to be fixed by the dealer (or authorized mechanic) within two years or 18,000 is considered a lemon in New York. The lemon law does NOT cover automobile problems that don’t substantially impair its value or are the result of misuse by the owner.\nNew York also has a used car lemon law, which is pretty unusual. Used car dealers are required to provide a warranty, which serves as the basis of\nNew York’s used car lemon law\n. For example, a used car with more than 18,000 miles (but less than 36,000 miles) is entitled to a 90 day or 4,000-mile warranty. The warranty coverage requirements include the engine, transmission, and other specific parts and functions.\nThe following table highlights the main provisions of New York’s lemon law (Tanner Consumer Protection Act). See\nSecret Warranties, Recalls, and Lemons\nand\nHow the New Car Lemon Law Can Help You\nfor more information.\nCode Section\nGen.

Since cars can be expensive, [lemon laws](https://www.findlaw.com/state/consumer-laws/details-on-state-state-lemon-laws.html) were enacted to give consumers more peace of mind when purchasing new car. New York lemon laws give consumers 18 months or 18,000 miles from the date of purchase, whichever comes first, to return their vehicle for a full refund if it is determined to be a lemon. ## What is a Lemon According to New York Law? A [new car that fails to conform](http://www.ag.ny.gov/consumer-frauds/new-car-lemon-law-fact-sheet) to the terms of its written warranty and is unable to be fixed by the dealer (or authorized mechanic) within two years or 18,000 is considered a lemon in New York. The lemon law does NOT cover automobile problems that don’t substantially impair its value or are the result of misuse by the owner. New York also has a used car lemon law, which is pretty unusual. Used car dealers are required to provide a warranty, which serves as the basis of [New York’s used car lemon law](http://www.ag.ny.gov/consumer-frauds/used-car-lemon-law-fact-sheet). For example, a used car with more than 18,000 miles (but less than 36,000 miles) is entitled to a 90 day or 4,000-mile warranty. The warranty coverage requirements include the engine, transmission, and other specific parts and functions. The following table highlights the main provisions of New York’s lemon law (Tanner Consumer Protection Act).
