read moreTo begin the complaint process, you must complete and submit a lemon law complaint form, which can be found on the TxDMV website. A filing fee—typically around $35—is required with your submission. Along with the form, you’ll need to provide documentation such as your sales or lease contract, detailed records of all repair attempts, and a timeline of events outlining the problems you’ve experienced and how the manufacturer or dealership responded.
The TxDMV may then schedule a hearing where you and the manufacturer will present your sides of the case. If the hearing officer finds that your vehicle qualifies under the Texas Lemon Law, they may order a repair, replacement, or refund. If the lemon law process through the TxDMV does not lead to a resolution, or if the decision is not in your favor, you may pursue a lawsuit in civil court.
It’s highly recommended that you consult a Texas lemon law attorney in these cases. An experienced attorney can assess whether your case meets the legal criteria, assist in gathering additional evidence, and help file a lawsuit within the statute of limitations.

read moreIn Texas, the lemon law process starts when you file a complaint with the Texas DMV. The state then reviews your case, and if it meets the legal standards, you may be offered a replacement vehicle, a refund, or another resolution. The process is designed to offer a quicker, less costly solution than filing a lawsuit. If you’re not satisfied with the outcome at this stage, you may file a lemon lawsuit.

read moreYes, the Texas Lemon Law was created primarily for new cars and demonstrator vehicles that are under warranty. It covers vehicles with defects that create a serious safety hazard or substantially impair the use or market value of the vehicle.
