Tesla is an American car company that specializes in the manufacturing of electric cars. Founded in 2003, Tesla has become a global leader in producing clean energy vehicles. In 2019, Tesla ranked as the top seller of plug-in and battery-electric cars in the world, and the Tesla Model 3 continues to be one of the most popular and recognizable electric cars on the planet. However, with new innovation and technology, comes a new set of issues and problems.
A lemon is a vehicle that has manufacturing defects that can negatively affect the vehicle. If even after several attempts to repair the issues, the vehicle is still too flawed to serve its purpose, the manufacturer may be liable under California and Federal Lemon Law. If you feel your new or used Tesla may be a lemon, contact the team at Kaufman & Kavicky, LLP for a free consultation.
