Get Fair Compensation with an Expert Kia Lemon Law Attorney
Despite their award-winning looks, a significant number of Kia models have developed catastrophic mechanical and electrical failures. Some owners report engines seizing at highway speeds. Others experience electrical failures that shut down the dashboard while driving. Beyond these safety issues, there are theft vulnerabilities—the infamous “Kia Boys” trend—that left thousands of Kia owners afraid to park in their own driveways, even in safe communities like Poway and Rancho Bernardo. When your Kia becomes unsafe, unreliable, or uninsurable, the excitement of a new car quickly turns into stress, fear, and financial strain.
Fortunately, the California Lemon Law exists to protect you. Whether your engine is knocking, your EV won’t charge, your cluster keeps blacking out, or your dealer keeps delaying repairs due to “backordered parts,” you have legal rights. You do not have to keep paying for a vehicle you’re afraid to drive or simply can’t drive due to issues.
If your repair visits are piling up—or your car has been sitting in the shop for weeks—read on to learn whether you may qualify for a full buyback under California law and how our team of dedicated Lemon Law attorneys are here to help.
California Lemon Law: The “Reasonable Number” Standard
The Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act—California’s Lemon Law—protects both purchased and leased Kia vehicles. Leasing is extremely popular for Kia, and leased vehicles receive the same protections as traditional purchases.
What counts as a “reasonable number” of repair attempts?
Common Kia Defects & Affected Models
Kia defects have been widely documented across California. These issues affect many of the most popular models on San Diego roads.
Why You Need a San Diego Attorney for Your Kia
Kia owners face hurdles that make it extremely difficult to secure relief without legal help.
Class Action vs. Individual Lemon Law Claims
Kia frequently pushes consumers toward class action settlements which can offer small cash reimbursements, minimal warranty extension, and no buyback option. By joining a class action, you may waive your right to pursue a full lemon law claim. A full buyback is almost always more beneficial for the consumer.
Local Dealership Knowledge Matters
Our firm has extensive experience with Service Centers throughout San Diego County including Kia of Kearny Mesa, Team Kia of El Cajon, Chula Vista Kia, North County Kia in Escondido, and more. We know how these dealers document repairs—and how they justify delays.
One of the most common delays are backordered parts. Kia engines and electrical components are notoriously delayed. Some dealers are renting additional storage space to house Kia’s in custody that are awaiting backordered parts – that’s pretty telling. Some San Diego owners wait months for an engine replacement while the dealer provides no resolution or care for the delay. However, the law is clear and Kia’s supply chain issues do not excuse leaving you without a functioning vehicle.
Fee-Shifting Protection
Under the Lemon Law, Kia pays your legal fees when you win. You pay nothing for representation.
The Buyback Calculation: What You Get Back
When Lemon Law Associates wins your case, Kia must refund your down payment, all monthly payments made, registration fees, taxes, towing and rental car expenses. In addition, the following can be considered:
