Your rights
- A defect that first occurred during the original manufacturer warranty.
- The defect substantially impairs the vehicle's use, value, or safety.
- The manufacturer has not fixed it after a reasonable number of repair attempts, or the vehicle spent extended time in the shop.
- You do not need an 18-month / 18,000-mile timeline. That window is not required to have a case.
