Ford is an American automobile maker that is based in Dearborn, MI. Ford is the second largest auto manufacturer in the United States, and produces dependable cars, trucks, SUVs, and commercial vehicles. While Ford’s slogan is, “Built Ford Proud,” not every vehicle that comes off of the line can meet these standards.
A lemon is a car or vehicle that has significant defects that can adversely affect the safety, utility, or value of the vehicle, even after several attempts to repair the issues. Under California and Federal Lemon Law, if you have purchased or leased a lemon, you may be entitled to a replacement or compensation by the manufacturer.
