Ford Lemon Law Lawyer California

Founded in 1903 by Henry Ford, the Ford Motor Company quickly established itself as an automotive icon, earning a lasting place on California’s roads and highways. Known for its diverse lineup of vehicles at competitive prices, it’s no surprise that Ford remains a popular choice among drivers. However, even trusted brands aren’t immune to issues. If your new or Certified Pre-Owned (CPO) Ford is plagued by persistent transmission, electrical, or engine problems — and the manufacturer or authorized dealer has failed to resolve them after a reasonable number of repair attempts — you could be dealing with a lemon.

Feeling frustrated with your Ford vehicle’s performance? Let Strategic Legal Practices step in to help. Start by filling out our free case evaluation form and take the first step toward the resolution you deserve.

Is Your Ford A Lemon?

Wondering if your Ford qualifies as a lemon? Under the Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act, California consumers are protected when purchasing a defective new or Certified Pre-Owned (CPO) vehicle. If your Ford has significant defects that persist despite a reasonable number of repair attempts, the manufacturer is required by law to provide a resolution — whether it’s a cash settlement, buyback, refund, or replacement vehicle.

Understanding your rights under the California Lemon Law is essential, but you don’t have to navigate the process alone. Trust Strategic Legal Practices to champion your Lemon Law case and help you achieve the resolution you deserve.

Common Ford Models and Known Issues

While most vehicles encounter minor issues over time, spending more time in the repair shop than on the road could indicate a Lemon Law case. Popular Ford models, including the Ford F-150, Ford Fusion, and Ford Escape, have faced significant problems and recalls over the years, leaving many drivers frustrated and seeking solutions.

Here are five common Ford problems (and symptoms) serious enough to warrant a California Lemon Law claim:

• Electrical Glitches — faulty sensors, malfunctioning infotainment systems, power window failures, recurrent battery drain, power steering defects, A/C and ventilation issues, rear door child locks not operating properly
• Transmission Troubles — rough shifting, slipping gears, roll pin problems, jerking, full transmission failure
• Engine Problems — misfires, excessive oil consumption, reduced fuel efficiency, fire risks, spark plug issues, fluid leaks, defective engine block heater
• Suspension and Steering Complications — poor handling, vibrations, uneven tire wear, safety hazards, pulling to one side
• Brake System Failures — premature wear, brake fluid leaks, squealing or grinding noises, ABS malfunctions

Know Your Rights When It Comes to a Faulty Ford

You’ve shelled out good money for your new or CPO vehicle, and as long as it’s under warranty, you expect smooth driving. But by the number or recalls, class-action suits, and Lemon Law claims filed against Ford, you know that’s not always the case. For example:

• One of the largest recalls covered nearly 1.3 million 2013-2018 Fusions. Safety regulators for the company stated that the front brake hoses could rupture and leak brake fluid. That could increase brake pedal travel and make stopping distances longer.
• A class action lawsuit was filed claiming that Ford sold certain 2007-2020 vehicles with defective water pumps that could suffer a sudden internal breakdown, leading to a “catastrophic” engine failure. The claim also states that the manufacturer knew of the faulty water pumps for more than a decade, but rather than fixing or disclosing the issue, continued to sell affect vehicles while not having the issue covered under its warranty.
• Ford currently holds the title of one of the biggest lemons of all time with the 1971 Pinto. It had a history of catching fire even in the slightest of rear-end collisions. After a number of Lemon Law cases, and consumer fatalities, a major lawsuit resulted in the manufacturer discontinuing the model.

These are just three examples of the legal actions Ford has faced. Among the most commonly reported models are the Explorer, Focus, Escape, Mustang, Expedition, Fiesta, Ranger, Escort, F-150, but the truth is that any model with recurring problems could be a lemon. Even yours.
