Defective consumer goods

California’s Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act, commonly referred to as the “lemon law”, may entitile consumers who purchased consumer goods when products are defective or don’t match the promises made. Often associated with motor vehicles, the law applies to most products bought by individuals, rather than businesses, at retail in California.
