The owner of a 2014 RAM 1500, purchased in May 2014, started experiencing problems less than a month after driving his truck. The vehicle repair history included three (3) unsuccessful repair attempts and over 33 days in the hands of an FCA approved repair facility. When he contacted the Law Offices of Delsack & Associates P.C., he told us the transmission was difficult to shift, the ignition system was defective, and the occupant restraint system gave inaccurate indications. He felt the vehicle was unsafe and wondered if it qualified as a lemon.
After reviewing his repair orders and purchase contract, we determined his RAM 1500 did qualify as a lemon. Within a few short weeks of filing our buyback demand to the manufacturer, we were able to negotiate a repurchase of the vehicle and recover his down payment, monthly payments, and registration. Under the California Lemon Law, Chrysler was allowed to deduct a mileage deduction fee. Because the first repair attempt was less than a month after purchase, the amount was minimal. FCA also paid the purchase balance in full and all attorney fees.
Needless to say, our client was very happy to be rid of his defective 2014 Ram 1500 and get his money back.
