Case Overview

Electrical Safety System Failure on a Nearly New Audi RS E-Tron

Audi RS E-Tron lemon law claims in Florida are covered under Chapter 681, Florida Statutes. When a vehicle requires multiple repair attempts for the same defect and the manufacturer cannot provide a permanent fix, the owner may be entitled to a cash settlement — at no cost. Easy Lemon recovered $129,519 for this client.

Our client leased a new Audi RS E-Tron from Audi North Orlando in Florida in January 2025, with only 44 miles at delivery. On June 18, 2025, the vehicle was brought in for service due to electrical and safety problems — the MMI screen, which controls the vehicle's display and safety features, was not working. A previous problem with a sticking door latch had also been reported. A loaner vehicle was provided. The repair remained ongoing at the time this case was filed.

Legal Analysis

Why This Audi RS E-Tron Qualified as a Lemon

Florida's Lemon Law (Chapter 681, Florida Statutes) sets specific thresholds that entitle a consumer to a buyback or replacement. This case satisfied multiple criteria:

  • Electrical: Required multiple repair attempts without permanent resolution.
  • Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act eligible: Federal warranty protection provided additional remedies.
💡 Zero Cost to the Client: Under Florida's Lemon Law and Magnuson-Moss, Audi was required to pay Easy Lemon's legal fees upon successful resolution. The client paid $0 out of pocket.
The Result

$129,519 Recovered for Our Client

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Do Audi RS E-Tron vehicles have electrical problems?
The Audi RS E-Tron is a sophisticated high-voltage electric vehicle with complex electronic systems. Owners have reported issues ranging from infotainment failures to safety-system malfunctions. Because these vehicles rely on integrated electronics for core safety functions, electrical defects can constitute a substantial impairment under lemon law statutes.
Can I file a lemon law claim if my Audi is still at the dealership?
Yes. If your Audi has been in the shop for an extended period due to a defect, this itself can support a lemon law claim. Many state lemon laws provide protection when a vehicle is out of service for a cumulative number of days, often 30 or more, regardless of the number of repair attempts.
Does Florida lemon law cover Audi electric vehicles?
Florida's Lemon Law (Chapter 681, Florida Statutes) covers new motor vehicles, including electric vehicles purchased or leased in Florida. If a substantial defect that impairs the use, value, or safety of the vehicle cannot be fixed within a reasonable number of repair attempts, the manufacturer may be required to provide a buyback or replacement.
How does the lemon law buyback process work with Audi?
In a buyback settlement, Audi repurchases your vehicle at or near the original purchase price, often covering your down payment, monthly payments made, registration fees, and incidental costs. Easy Lemon handles all negotiations directly with Audi at no cost to you — the manufacturer pays attorney fees upon a successful resolution.
