It's a common tactic. The Act lets warranties include a provision that asks customers to try to resolve warranty disputes before going to court. You should expect to get described as an opportunist who is using a minor situation to go after a good company just to make a quick buck.

Obviously, your case is likely not going to make headlines the NY Times, but it still registers as newsworthy and can be picked up locally. This means that only the warranties that are made on tangible property normally used for personal, family, or household purposes are covered. It happens so often that eventually there was bound to be some laws protecting the buyers. (7) Takes into account, in rendering decisions, all legal and equitable factors, including, but not limited to, the written warranty, the rights and remedies conferred in regulations of the Federal Trade Commission contained in Part 703 of Title 16 of the Code of Federal Regulations as those regulations read on January 1, 1987, Division 2 (commencing with Section 2101) of the Commercial Code, this chapter, and any other equitable considerations appropriate in the circumstances.
Knowing the Manufacturers Responsibility
Basically, the Lemon Law requires manufacturers to meet the terms of all of the warranties that they conjure up. The lemon law is what keeps the dealers and manufacturers in line. The manufacturer must repair or correct any defect or condition which impairs the use and value of the vehicle, while it is under the warranty period or during the period of one year after the customer gets it.
If the manufacturer or authorized dealer couldnt repair the condition after a reasonable amount of tries, then, under the law, the buyer is entitled to receive a replacement vehicle of equal value or a refund that equals the full purchase/lease price and collateral costs. Of course, this is minus an allowance for the customers use.
The law for lemons is assuming that a reasonable number of attempts have been made after:
At least four unsuccessful attempts to repair the same defect have been made; or
A car has been out of service because of warranty repairs for at least 30 cumulative days during the warranty period or during the year after the car was delivered to the consumer; or
There have been 10 or more tries while the car was under warranty or during the first year of ownership, to fix various defects which will significantly impair the use and value of the car.
However, it is worth noting that the manufacturer does not have to make a refund or replace the car if:
The defect does not significantly impair the use and value of the car; or
The condition of the car is the direct result of consumer abuse, neglect, or unauthorized alterations of the vehicle by the consumer.
