Under California’s Lemon Law (Civ. Code, § 1793.2 et seq.), you are protected if your car is faulty and can’t be fixed after a reasonable number of repair attempts.
The Lemon Law protects cars bought or leased in California that are still covered by a manufacturer’s vehicle warranty. Under the Lemon Law, if a manufacturer is unable to repair a problem after a “reasonable” number of repairs and does not meet its obligations under the warranty, it may be required to buy back or replace your car.
