Sunroof Panel Detachment Recall (2001–2011)
In December 2024, Mercedes-Benz recalled nearly 33,500 vehicles built between 2001 and 2011 due to a sunroof panel that can come loose. The affected models include various C-Class, E-Class, and CLK-Class vehicles.

Frequently Asked Questions About Lemon Law
What types of vehicles are covered under California's Lemon Law?
The law covers new and used vehicles sold or leased in California that come with the manufacturer’s new vehicle warranty. This includes cars, pickup trucks, vans, SUVs, the chassis, chassis cab, and drive train of motor homes, dealer-owned vehicles, demonstrators, and vehicles purchased or leased primarily for personal, family, household, or certain business purposes.
What constitutes a "reasonable" number of repair attempts under the Lemon Law?
California’s Lemon Law presumes a reasonable number of repair attempts if, within 18 months or 18,000 miles (whichever comes first) after purchase or lease:
- The manufacturer or dealer hasn’t fixed the same problem after four or more attempts.
- The vehicle’s issues could cause death or serious injury if driven, and there have been at least two unsuccessful repair attempts.
The vehicle has been out of service for more than 30 days (not necessarily consecutive) for warranty-covered problems.
Does the Lemon Law apply to used vehicles?
Yes, the Lemon Law applies to used vehicles that are still under the manufacturer’s new vehicle warranty. This includes certified pre-owned vehicles sold with such warranties.
What remedies are available if my vehicle qualifies under the Lemon Law?
If your vehicle qualifies, the manufacturer must either replace the vehicle or refund its purchase price, depending on your preference.
Do I need to go to court to resolve a Lemon Law claim?
Not necessarily. Many manufacturers offer state-certified arbitration programs to resolve disputes. If such a program is available, you must request arbitration to claim the benefits of the Lemon Law presumption. You can accept or reject the arbitrator’s decision.
Does the Lemon Law apply to leased vehicles?
Yes, the Lemon Law covers leased vehicles that come with the manufacturer’s new vehicle warranty
How long do I have to file a Lemon Law claim in California?
You have four years from the date of the breach of warranty to file a lawsuit under the California Lemon Law.
