3 Things To Avoid Before Filing A Lemon Law Claim

We know that own a defective vehicle is really frustrating for you. Such a vehicle impacts some of the major chores of your day to day life. But, it is inappropriate to make an error that can affect your lemon law claim. A minor error from you can be used against you during the lemon law hearing.

In this article, we will discuss the top 3 mistakes done by the consumers which are used against them by the manufacturers in the hearing. These mistakes have affected the Maryland lemon law claim, and the consumers end up losing the case.

1) Do not yell at the repair person or manufacturer company representative

No matter how frustrated you are because of the defective automobile, yelling and shouting at the repair personnel about the defect is not on the list. Even if the mechanics blame you for the defect in the product, yelling at them is the last thing you would want to do. You can vent out your frustration while hiring an attorney for your claim. The procedure of the lemon law claim is a bit complex. Hence, it is essential for you to stay calm throughout the process.

2) Do not threaten a repair person or company representative about filing a lemon law claim

After multiple repair attempts, you might get fed up with all this and might threaten the repair personnel or the manufacturer representative to drag them into court. But, it is a bad idea. For filing a lemon law claim, you need all the repair and service records to be precise. But, if you threaten the repair personnel, they might tamper with the repair records. Similarly, the manufacturer representative might flag the internal records of the vehicle if threatened. Hence, it would help if you did not threaten any of these people before filing the claim.

3) Do not defame the manufacturer on social media

No matter how strong your social media following is, it is not the right choice to start posting negative things about your vehicle manufacturer through these means of the internet. If you post anything negative about the manufacturing company, they might use these posts in court and claim denial for your lawsuit. We understand that you wish to express your anger about the defective automobile or poor service, but if you wish to get the issue resolved, you avoid posting such comments.

It is crucial to avoid making these three mistakes before filing a lemon law claim for your defective automobile. Take guidance from your attorney in the process of the claim. Your attorney can help you avoid any other mistake and get the best possible compensation for your claim under the lemon law in Maryland.
