Why Everett Drivers File Lemon Law Claims
Everett drivers commute south to Seattle and Bellevue daily on some of the most congested stretches of I-5 in the country. That stop-and-go grind exposes engine, transmission, and electrical defects fast — and Washington's lemon law is the path to a real resolution.

What Is Washington's Lemon Law?
Washington's lemon law — formally the Motor Vehicle Warranties Act (RCW 19.118), often called "Wallace's Lemon Law" — protects new-vehicle buyers and lessees whose vehicles have a serious defect that the manufacturer can't fix in a reasonable number of attempts.
Unlike many states, Washington offers a free state-administered arbitration program through the New Motor Vehicle Arbitration Board (NMVAB). If you qualify, you can pursue a refund (buyback) or a comparable replacement vehicle — and the manufacturer typically pays your attorney fees if you win.
Do YouQualify Under Washington Lemon Law?
You may qualify if:
- Your vehicle was purchased or leased new in Washington (or transferred during the warranty period).
- It has a serious defect substantially impairing use, value, or safety.
- The manufacturer has had a reasonable number of repair attempts (generally 4+, or 2 for serious safety defects).
- Your vehicle has been out of service for a cumulative 30+ days for warranty repairs.
