Austin Defective Vehicle Lawyer
When you purchase a new or used vehicle, you expect for it to be in proper working order. Those who rely on public transit vehicles, such as buses or trains, tend not to think twice about the safety of these machines. Even those who fly, in general, assume that the planes they are in have been properly manufactured and maintained.
When these vehicles are defective, they take their passengers by surprise and because of this it is likely that the operators will lose control. When these incidents occur at high speeds, everyone in and around the vehicle are put at risk of serious injury or death.
It is the responsibility of manufacturers and used vehicle companies to provide their customers with safe and reliable automobiles. Failure to do so is not only quite dangerous, but also, in many places, is against the law. If you have been harmed by a faulty vehicle, Austin defective vehicles lawyer Vic Feazell can help you take legal action against the responsible party. Call him today at 877-948-4842 to learn more.
Texas Lemon Law
The Texas Department of Transportation (DOT) has instituted what is known as the Lemon Law in order to ensure that consumers travel with safe and properly working motorized vehicles. This law covers both new and used cars, trucks, ATV’s, RV’s, motorcycles and boats. For vehicles to qualify for repair assistance under this act, they must still be covered by the manufacturer’s warranty and meet the following conditions:
- Vehicle has a serious defect
- Defect is covered by the manufacturer’s warranty
- Defect is reported before the warranty has elapsed
- Manufacturer is given a “reasonable number of attempts” to fix the vehicle
- Manufacturer is given written documentation of defect and another attempt to repair it
- Defect significantly reduces vehicles value or poses a serious safety threat
- Owner files Lemon Law complaint and pays the associated fees
If your vehicle manufacturer continuously fails to repair or provide you with a safe vehicle, then that company has put you and everyone else on the road at risk of injury or death. To take action against this negligent business, call Austin defective vehicles lawyer Vic Feazell today.
