lemon law ma?

well i have gone to the dealership 3 times so far for the seat rocking issue. no matter what they do, they cant fix it, and they are running out of idea's. Do I qualify for the lemon law? If so, how do I persue it? And if I win, what will happen?

in mass?

No, 3 times, then you have to write a certified letter to Honda of America, then they get a 4th opportunity to fix the problem, which they have to botch, THEN you are applicable only for the lemon law if:

a) The defect affects the function of the vehicle (i.e. saftey, reliability, etc....)
b) The defect affects the resale of your vehicle.

MA-lemon

From the description of your problem you should just contact the district service manager, show them the problem and tell them to f-ing fix it.

I'd say there is a slim to none chance Honda wont get it right - and in arbitration (court or wherever) they will probably just order honda to fix it if it slips through.

If you did win (assuming your car still qualifies -> one year or 15,000 miles of use from the date of original delivery, whichever comes first.)
then you would be entitled to a new car, or your money back (taxes etc) minus a mileage allowance.
