Is Your FCA Vehicle a Lemon?
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.

What You Need to Know About Stellantis / FCA Lemon Law Claims
If you have made several reasonable attempts to resolve a defect in your car without success, it may be time to think about filing a lemon law claim. The tips below will help you get started. Don’t hesitate to contact our lemon law attorneys at Auto Lemon Law for assistance with your problematic FCA/Stellantis vehicle.
What the Lemon Law Covers
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.
Definition of a “Lemon”
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.
Consumer Responsibilities
You’ll need to take certain steps to initiate a FCA lemon law claim. These steps typically include:
- Providing a written notice to FCA or the authorized dealership about the defect(s) within a specified time frame (often within the first year or in accordance with a certain mileage restriction).
- Allowing FCA a reasonable chance to repair the defect(s) by taking the vehicle to an authorized FCA dealership or service center for repairs
- Maintaining complete records of all repair attempts, including dates, descriptions of the defects, and copies of the repair orders.
At Auto Lemon Lawyer, we can ensure you do everything necessary to prepare for your lemon law claim.
Stellantis North America / FCA’s Obligations
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:
Repurchase (Buyback)
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.
Replacement
FCA may offer to replace your defective vehicle with a comparable new FCA vehicle of the same or similar year, make, and model.
Cash Settlement
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.
Dispute Resolution Process
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.
Supporting Documents
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.
Statute of Limitations
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.
Variances by State
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.
