Magnuson Moss Warranty Act


Pittsburgh Lawyer

The Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act is otherwise known as the Federal Lemon Law. The Magnuson-Moss Act is a warranty related act that forces manufacturers to comply with the strict terms set forth in their given warranties.

The Act applies to any personal use consumer products that are valued at $25 or more that come with a warranty. This can range from Computers, to Washing Machines to your new car, and anything in between.

If your product becomes defective, you must give the manufacturer a reasonable opportunity to repair the item under the warranty. Typically, a reasonable opportunity means three repair attempts at the same defect.

The Magnuson-Moss Act provides that manufacturers must offer a free replacement or full refund to consumers if they are unable to repair the item after a reasonable number of attempts. The choice of replacement or refund is made by the consumer, not the manufacturer.

The great thing about the Magnuson-Moss Act is that it also provides for recovery of all collateral charges, including attorney fees, costs, interest payments and more.
