The Indiana Lemon Law Disclosure On File For Replaced Or Repurchased Vehicles
Indiana Lemon Law, also known as the Motor Vehicle Protection Act provides protection to resident consumers with vehicles that do not meet certain standards or have nonconformities.
According to the Indiana Lemon Law a vehicle is considered to be a Lemon if the nonconformities:
* Substantially impair the use, market value, or safety of the vehicle
* Render the motor vehicle defective and breaches manufacturers warranty
Vehicles covered by the Indiana Lemon Law
The Indiana Lemon Law protects
* A car bought or leased for personal use in Indiana
* Light truck bought in Indiana
Your car is an Indiana Lemon car if it
* Is not 18 months old yet and has travelled fewer than 18,000 miles
* Was subjected to at least four repair attempts for the same nonconformity by the authorized dealer and the problem is not remedied
* The car is out of service for a cumulative of 30 business days due to repairs
Steps you should take to get Indiana Lemon Law protection
* Report the problem within 18 months of purchase or before 18,000 miles, whichever comes first
* Save copies of every repair order when the dealership repairs or examines your car
Sale of Indiana Lemon Buyback and Title Branding
If the manufacturer has replaced your lemon car with a new one or had bought it back through a refund, the manufacturer is required to obtain a new title for it before the vehicle is resold as it is an Indiana Lemon Law buyback. The Indiana Lemon Law buyback should have a brand or stamp as The Manufacturers Buyback-Disclosure On File. This stamp or brand should remain on the vehicles title for the rest of the servicing years of the vehicle.
When a dealer sells a vehicle that had previously been repurchased or replaced under the Indiana Lemon Law, the purchase should be accompanied by:
* A written notice that the vehicle was repurchased or replaced under the Indiana Lemon Law
* A 12-month or 12,000 mile manufacturers warranty
