Getting Lemon Justice — Relief Under Hawaii Lemon Law

Hawaii Lemon Law provides several options for a successful Lemon Law claimant. First, you may be awarded a replacement vehicle of the same year, make, and model. You may also qualify for a refund, which can include:

• Down payment
• Net trade-in
• Monthly payments made as of the date of the hearing
• Collateral charges, such as dealer charges, dealer-installed items, and extended warranty
• Incidental charges, such as towing, alternate transportation, and repair charges

The amount of the refund may be reduced by a deduction for your use of the vehicle, which is calculated by dividing the mileage at the last repair attempt by 1,000, and multiplying that amount by 1% of the purchase price.
