Does lemon law apply to used vehicles

Nevada's Lemon Law does not cover used vehicles, but that does not mean you are necessarily out of luck. Did the vehicle come with a warranty? If so, then a federal law called the Magnuson Moss Warranty Act requires that repairs be made within a reasonable amount of time or a reasonable number of repair attempts. Depending on your state law, you may also have claims for breach of implied warranty or claims under your state UDAP (Consumer Law) Statute. If the vehicle did not come with a warranty, then you would need to prove fraud– i.e. that the dealer knowingly or recklessly lied to you or hid something from you that was material to the vehicle (which the operation of the engine certainly is) and that the lie or secret cost you money. Laws vary from state to state, so you should contact an attorney in Nevada. To find a Consumer Law attorney in Nevada, you can go to www.USLemonLawyers.com. You can also look for one on under the “Find a Lawyer” tab. Or you can call your local attorney's Bar Association and ask for a referral to a lemon law attorney near you. But act quickly because for every legal right you have, there is a limited amount of time to file a lawsuit in court before your rights expire.
