"Lemon laws" are state laws, so the rules will vary from state to
state. You will probably need an attorney, and you will probably find
several that specifically mention "lemon law" in their yellow page
ads.

One thing for sure, keep driving it, and keep complaining about the issue.
They have to comply but the burden of proof's on you, you must have copies
of the ro's and any documentation you gave the dealer describing the
problem (letter, note to service advisor, etc.)
Look, don;t get me wrong, if all else fails find an atty and sue them, but
be sure you can prove what's going on. I'm kind of surprised at this, becaus
eHonda's rep is that they're very customer oriented....maybe times have
changed since I kicked back!

Jerry, did you ever stop to consider that if every car dealer and manufacturer
did the right thing on a lemon law claim, there would be no need for lemon laws
or lemon law lawyers?
I don't represent lemon law claimants, but I do defend car dealers in lemon law
lawsuits. Seldom are these lawsuits totally frivolous. Most of the
plaintiff's lawyers I have encountered in these cases are competent and
ethical, and much more qualified to advocate their client's cases than their
clients could on their own.
I think it is good advice to consult with a lawyer at the inception of a lemon
law claim. Consider it a tutoring session to better equip the consumer to
negotiate a fair settlement. Also, not every consumer is adept at negotiation,
and many get so emotionally involved with their claim that they become
ineffective. These people will benefit greatly from the services of a good
attorney.
And if you call lawyers "scum-suckers" again, I'm going to find out where you
live and come kick your ***. ;-)~

Re: Lemon LAW?
I have experience in Texas. MFR offered a MSRP to MSRP swap as settlement. I
took it, and got a new vehicle...not as nice as the lemon, but 2 years newer
and got 0% finance as opposed to the 7+% on the first.
