When did New Mexico’s “Used Car Lemon Law” go into effect and what does it say?
January 1, 2004. New Mexico’s “Used Car Lemon Law” as it’s commonly known, provides for a statutory warranty for all used cars sold in the state by an automobile dealer. In short, the statute will require that all automobile dealers provide a warranty for all used cars they sell, covering the first 500 miles or 15 days, whichever comes first. See Lemon Law page.
