Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA) operating as Stellantis North America and historically known as Chrysler, is one of the “Big Three” automobile manufacturers in the United States.
Stellantis North America sells vehicles worldwide under the Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, and Ram Trucks brands.
The original Chrysler Corporation was established in 1925 by Walter Chrysler, built from the remnants of the Maxwell Motor Company. In 1998, it merged with Daimler-Benz, which rebranded itself as DaimlerChrysler, but sold its stake in Chrysler in 2007. The company operated as Chrysler LLC until 2009, then became Chrysler Group LLC. In 2014, Fiat S.p.A. acquired it, and it subsequently functioned as a subsidiary of the newly formed Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA). In 2021, FCA merged with PSA Group (Peugeot Société Anonyme), and Chrysler became a subsidiary of Stellantis.
Lemon laws provide protections for FCA vehicle owners who seek remedies for their new vehicles that cannot be repaired after a reasonable number of attempts. FCA/Stellantis vehicles can have many costly and inconvenient issues, and owners should exercise their rights when eligible for legal relief for a lemon.

The lemon law may apply to both new FCA vehicles and used vehicles still under the manufacturer’s warranty. This coverage extends to both purchased and leased vehicles. We can help determine if your FCA vehicle is protected under the law.
A vehicle is deemed a “lemon” if it has one or more significant defects that substantially impair its use, value, or safety. If these issues persist despite a reasonable number of repair attempts by FCA-authorized dealerships or service centers, you may be dealing with a lemon.
The exact criteria for determining what makes up a “reasonable number of attempts” may slightly differ. However, if you’ve tried to repair the same defect four times or haven’t been able to drive the car for 30 days or more due to repair, you need to speak to our lemon law attorneys.
You’ll need to take certain steps to initiate a FCA lemon law claim. These steps typically include:
At Auto Lemon Lawyer, we can ensure you do everything necessary to prepare for
If your FCA vehicle meets the criteria for being a lemon under state law, the company should provide a remedy to you. The specific remedy may vary but typically includes one of the following options:
FCA may repurchase the defective vehicle from the consumer and provide a full refund of the purchase price, plus collateral costs such as fees, taxes, and finance charges.
FCA may offer to replace your defective vehicle with a comparable new FCA vehicle of the same or similar year, make, and model.
In some cases, FCA may offer a cash settlement to the consumer as an alternative to repurchase or replacement.
Auto Lemon Lawyer can assist you in determining the right relief for your situation.
Many states require consumers to take part in FCA’s internal dispute resolution process, often referred to as arbitration, before they can take further legal action.
This process typically involves submitting the lemon law claim to a third-party arbitrator FCA appoints. This person will review the case and make a binding decision.
If you don’t like the decision, you can pursue legal action in court. If so, you can file a civil lawsuit against the manufacturer.
If you’re successful, you may be entitled to recover the full purchase price of the auto or its replacement value, including extra damage, court costs, and attorney’s fees.
Thorough documentation and recordkeeping are crucial for successful FCA Lemon Law claims. Consumers should keep detailed records of all repair attempts, including dates, defect descriptions, repair orders, and any communication with FCA or the dealership regarding the defects and subsequent repairs.
Each state has its own statute of limitations. This is the time frame to make a lemon law claim. That’s why you must speak to our lemon law lawyers as soon as possible. Failure to file a claim within the specified time period may cause you to lose the right to get your money back or replace your auto.
While the fundamental principles of the FCA Lemon Law are similar across states, specific requirements, such as the number of repair attempts considered reasonable, the time or mileage limits, and the remedies available to consumers, may vary.

Zack HorneI am so pleased with Duck Law Firm and how they handled my case. They were very responsive and I couldn't have asked for better service in dealing with the issues I was having with the dealership. Kevin and his team were very upfront with me about everything from the get go and told me exactly how things would proceed and how long the process would take. This was the first time I have ever had to deal with something like this, and I hope I don't have to go through this again, but if I do, I would call them back in a second. Many thanks to Kevin and his team for making me feel respected, heard and understood.

Ainsley MessinaI was plagued by a continuous electrical problem on my truck. Brought it to two different dealerships multiple times to no avail. In frustration I turned to Mr Duck's firm and was contacted by Jesse who stayed in contact with me and helped me navigate the lemon law process. I never had a need to explore it before. One time I had questions about some specifics and received a call from Kevin who talked to me for 45 minutes answering all of my questions and explained what to expect. My settlement was far more than I anticipated and even finally got my truck satisfactorily repaired! Highly recommend this firm if you get to the point of having nowhere else to turn.
