t-bone five years is patently ridiculous! first of all lemon laws vary from state to state there is no uniformity in time and mileage nor in the relief the consumer is entitled to. i am aware of that and that is why i asked the question but thanks for pointing out the obvious. secondly a lemon is commonly defined in the industry as a vehicle that for whatever reason has been improperly assembled and thus causes the owner an inordinate amount of aggravation in getting corrected. thank you for the industry definition. that make a few things clearer having said that a true lemon would exhibit its flaws early on in the ownership experience thus the reason for the time limit in state lemon laws. fair enough but that still doesnt change the fact this particular would fit within the lemon law conditions with the exception to age of the vehicle. the part is still under warrantee and multiple attempts to repair the same problem have been unsuccessful. problems that occur later in the vehicles life can and many times do! occur due to the owners driving habits lack of maintenance etc. which im sure hmmmm maybe not! even you would agree are not the manufacturers responsibility. if the failure occurs do to the above conditions then yes i do agree but that has nothing to do with the problem here. the problem here is that they have been unable to fix the problem after repeated attempts even though the part is still under warrantee and they are responsible to make whatever repairs they do perform correctly or make good to the customer in some way. do you not agree i agree that they have an obligation to the customer to make things right. i was just pointing out the fallacy of your previous suggestion that he persue the lemon law. it doesnt apply in this case. i think that you are kinda beating a dead horse here. it was simply a combination question / suggestion that was shown not to be usable in this situation but the dealer is not fulfilling his obligation to the customer just the same. it does appear however that there is a federal law that does not have the same time limit and perhaps the op might want to look it up and proceed from there. -- if at first you dont succeed youre not cut out for skydiving .
