Commercial Vehicles
Are you the owner of a commercial vehicle, such as a heavy duty truck, 18-wheeler, tractor, or even a car that is used for business purposes? Unfortunately, the auto Lemon Law would not apply to you. However, you can still pursue claims for breach of warranty under Ohio law, similar to the claims consumers can bring under the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act. If proven that your commercial auto is a lemon, by law, you could be entitled to damages for loss in value of the commercial vehicle, plus other incidental and consequential damages, including lost profits.
In order to prove a breach of express warranty, you would have to prove that a written warranty existed and that the manufacturer failed to remedy a defect in the vehicle after a reasonable number of repair attempts. In order to prove a breach of implied warranty, you would have to prove that the vehicle was not fit for the normal purposed for which it was intended and/or that it was not fit for the particular purpose for which you use it.
The bottom line is that even if you have a commercial vehicle which does not fall under the typical auto Lemon Law, we still can help you. Call Luxenburg & Levin today at (216) 382-8581 for a free case review. You can also click here for a free case evaluation.
