Im really curious as to whether my Subaru is eligable for the California Lemon Law. Basically, the driver's seat keeps coming unbolted. Its been fixed 3 times now. Ive never known anyone that had a manufacture buy back a car because it was defective, so im really curious if i have a case. If this problem keeps coming back as it has, i want a new car. Its kinda rediculous that my seat keeps falling out.

Anyone have any input?

What I know,

It has to be the same problem, with atleast 4 attempts made at correcting it.

Within one year or 12,000 miles. . or if it has put the vehicle out of your possesion for more than 30 days(within this year).

Let me look more. . .

Oh wait, your seat!

That might be something that could cause serious bodily injury or death?!?

So they only get 2 cracks at repair in California.

I think time restriction is longer than 12 months to. . .but not sure.

yah, im wondering if a loose seat constitutes the possibility of a serious bodily injury or death. Anyone know of an attorney that they can quickly toss this question to??

seat breaks, are you heavy?



back in 1989 my cousin had a mustang GT, there was

one TINY spot on the hatch that kept rusting, they fixed it

3 times in over a year and ended up taking the car back

and he got all his money back.



he also just gave back a 2002 Audi A6 4.2 due to a problem

with the brakes that they could not fix, once again he was

refunded his money.





good luck, or bad, you decide!
