Jeep Lemon Law Lawyer California

Originally used by the U.S. Army during World War II, Jeep SUVs have evolved into iconic vehicles that now take California drivers to work, on adventures, and everywhere in between. Renowned for their sporty design, off-road capabilities, and powerful performance, Jeep is truly a classic American brand. However, whether you purchase a new or Certified Pre-Owned (CPO) Jeep, there’s a chance it could have significant defects with the engine, transmission, electrical system, steering, or brakes. If your Jeep has undergone multiple repair attempts by the manufacturer or authorized dealership — or if they’ve refused service — you may qualify for a Lemon Law case.

To see if your Jeep qualifies for a Lemon Law case, let Strategic Legal Practices review your information, free of charge. Submit your claim by filling out our free case evaluation form.

Is Your Jeep A Lemon?

Is it possible that your Jeep is a lemon? Luckily, California drivers that purchase a new or CPO Jeep are protected under the Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act, commonly known as the California Lemon Law. If your Jeep has been in and out of the dealership with no resolution after a reasonable number of repair attempts, the manufacturer must offer a cash settlement, buyback, refund, or replacement vehicle.

We urge you to know your rights under the Song-Beverly Warranty Act. To help enforce those rights, let the experts at Strategic Legal Practices defend your case against Jeep.

Common Jeep Models and Known Issues

In the past, the following Jeep models were considered lemons:

Jeep Wrangler — Drivers reported a faulty welding problem in the frame.
Jeep Cherokee — These models have had issues with electric system glitches and the transmission.
Jeep Gladiator — Owners have reported that the Gladiator has frequent issues with the electrical system, diesel engine fuel system, and violent shaking of the steering wheel.
Jeep Grand Cherokee — A major issue in older Grand Cherokee models was a problem with the electronic shifter, causing the vehicle to be stuck in “park” or “neutral” despite changing gears.

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

Electrical Glitches — malfunctioning infotainment systems, faulty sensors, power window failures, recurrent battery drain, ignition switch issues
Transmission Troubles — rough shifting, slipping gears, delayed acceleration, won’t go in reverse, overheating, shaking, shuddering
Engine Problems — misfires, excessive oil consumption, reduced fuel efficiency, stalling, exhaust leaks
Suspension and Steering Complications — poor handling, excessive vibrations, uneven tire wear, “death wobble” (when the front axle oscillate violently), electronic swaybar disconnect failure (also known as stabilizer or anti-roll bar)
HVAC Issues — weak air conditioning, malfunctioning heater controls, poor airflow, cabin water leaks

We recommend regularly checking for Jeep recalls and technical service bulletins. Addressing these issues promptly is crucial for your safety and can also strengthen your Lemon Law case.

Know Your Rights When It Comes To A Faulty Jeep

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 of recalls, class-action suits, and Lemon Law claims filed against Jeep, you know that’s not always the case. For example:

Certain 2022-2023 Jeep Grand Cherokees and 2021-2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee L vehicles are being recalled due to an incorrectly assembled steering column intermediate shaft that may disconnect from the u-joint, resulting in a loss of steering control.

A class action suit asserts that 2018-2020 Wranglers and 2020 Gladiators have a defect in the front suspension steering damper, potentially leading to serious problems. Known as the “Death Wabble” suit, the sudden shaking of the steering wheel can happen at any speed and has been linked to suspension parts such as tie rods, ball joints, and control arms. While there is no definitive repair to prevent it from happening, Jeep has announced a settlement offering an 8-year warranty extension.
