Leased Vehicle Lemon Law in CT

Connecticut has one of the most comprehensive Lemon Laws in the country. Under Connecticut Lemon Law, leased vehicles are covered.

In order to be considered a “lemon,” a leased vehicle must meet the following requirements: 

• Does not conform to the manufacturer’s express warranty;
• Has substantial defects affecting the use, safety or value of the vehicle.
• Has manufacturer’s defects that occurred during the first two years from the original owner’s delivery date or the first 24,000 miles on the odometer (whichever period ends first).
• Has been taken in four times for the same problem (or two times if the defect might endanger the driver’s life) or if it has been out of service for 30 days due to a series of unrelated problems.

Cannot have problems associated with any modifications that you made.
