Texas Department of Motor Vehicles, Lemon Law
If you purchased or leased from a licensed Texas dealer or lease company and are having repeated problems getting your new vehicle repaired, the Texas Lemon Law may be able to help you get it repurchased, replaced or repaired. Your newly used vehicle may be covered under the Lemon Law if the vehicle is still covered by the manufacturer’s original warranty (not an extended service contract), or if the problem started while under warranty and it continues to exist. Please read more about the Lemon Law through the Texas Department of Motor Vehicles.
