What Constitutes a “Repair Opportunity”?
Under the California Lemon Law, a consumer need only “present” the vehicle to the manufacturer or its authorized repair facility for repair. This means, whenever you take the vehicle to the manufacturer or its authorized repair facility for repair, it counts as a “repair opportunity”–even if they cannot duplicate the problem, do not even attempt to fix the problem, or do in fact fix the problem temporarily. If you took your vehicle in to a dealership for repairs, and they didn’t give you a repair order, make sure you make a note of the day and what happened, because that will still count as “presenting” the vehicle for repair.
