I have a Dodge Viper 2005 and it was in the shop for 40+ days during the first 12 months of owning the vehicle. I wrote Dodge giving them VIN and service records stating I wanted my money back and they sent me an email stating 'we will continue to repair your vehicle'

Has anyone ever returned a car to Dodge under the lemon law of California and what is my best approach?

Proof that I am not lying:

The vehicle was purchased new. The lemon law statues for the state of california can be viewed here:
http://www.lemonlawamerica.com/state_laws/california.htm

I qualify under section § 1793.22. b. 3.

I qualify because my vehicle has been in the shop for over 40 days and was so during the first 18 months or 18,000 miles (the car is only 14 months old and only has 12,000 miles, and I filed the claim at 11,000 miles two months ago)

Has anyone gone through the Lemon Law process? Has anyone done it with Daimler-Chrysler?

Chrysler isn't going to help you - drop me a line and I'll refer you to a lemon law attorney in CA - (no benefit for me, just helping people out)

Most of the answers you will get here are from people , not experts
they use the term 'lemon law' loosely and have no actual experience or knowledge of the law.
a 'lemon law' pertains only to the sale of a New Vehicle.
and it should have been part of the stack of papers you signed when u bought the car.
it is an agreement by the manufacturer & not the dealership, to repair a vehicle , if it can be repaired, or replace, if not.
it is very rare that you would be reimbursed your cash.

if you bought the vehicle NEW...read the paperwork that you should have received with it & proceed from there.

If it was pre-owned there are other procedures

hope this helps

You know look into the lemon laws cause actually a friend of mine bought a brand new Durango and had so many problems with it. But there's like certain period of time or something like that. And it has to be the same problem that keeps on occuring over and over again. You need to just go to the dealership that you bought it from and let them know and also send another letter over. If it's just got different problems all over the place look into the lemon laws and then they'll have to give you back a full refund or something like that. They can only repair your car so many times. Go and look into it definitely.

if it has nothing to do with the drivablity of the vehicle or puts the occupants of the vehicle (when it is in operation) in unecessary harm,it would not be returnable under the lemon law.

Lemon regulations have been by no potential designed to disguise stuff from a junk backyard. everyone who could purchase a salvage vehicle could desire to be conscious that "salvage" is completely an outstanding thank you to declare "junk". it is form of like calling a rubbish collector a "sanitation engineer". Sounds fancy yet does not replace the data.

Take it back and tell them what you think of them. If that doesn't work call a lawyer. Tell them you are contacting a lawyer before you leave there.
