Lemon LawPage 5What Is The Warranty Period? To determine whether you have a claim under Lemon Law you will have to determine whether at least one attempt to diagnose or repair each defect occurred under the manufacturer's warranty and within the "warranty period." It is important to understand that, for purposes of arbitration, the "warranty period" may be different from the actual manufacturer's warranty. The law requires that the manufacturer's warranty cover at least 1 year or 12,000 miles (whichever occurs first). An extended service contract is not an express manufacturer's warranty. When determining whether an attempt to diagnose or repair a defect meets the requirements for eligibility, the "warranty period" covers a diagnosis or repair occurring within 2 years from the original delivery date and 24,000 miles of operation of the vehicle.
