Dodge Charger Lemon Law Case Study
Multiple Electrical and A/C Failures on a Nearly New Dodge Charger
Our client leased a new Dodge Charger from Taverna Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram Fiat in Florida, with only 5 miles at delivery. With only 1,359 miles on the odometer, the vehicle developed multiple simultaneous electrical and HVAC failures — a red wrench warning light, intermittent radio sound, no A/C output, and a 'Service Electrical Charging System' warning. Parts were placed on backorder with no confirmed resolution date, and a rental vehicle was provided.
Documented Repair Visits
June 30, 2025 – Present (ongoing)
A red wrench warning light illuminated. Radio sound was intermittent. The A/C system produced no air output. A 'Service Electrical Charging System' message appeared. The dealership confirmed the issues but documented no specific cause or correction. A recall (44C) was performed during this visit. Parts were placed on backorder. A rental vehicle was provided.
Why This Dodge Charger 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.
