What is the Maine Lemon Law?
The Maine Lemon Law protects consumers who have serious defects in their new car. If your car is substantially defective and the dealer cannot fix it; you can apply for a free State Lemon Law Arbitration Hearing and receive a decision within 45 days. You can only apply for State Lemon Law Arbitration within two years from the date your car was originally sold to a consumer and within the first 18,000 miles. See Maine Attorney General’s Consumer Law Guide, ยง 7.2, Consumers Guide to State Lemon Law.
