About Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act in Washington

The Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act is a federal law that protects consumers across all 50 states, including Washington, when manufacturers or sellers breach written or implied warranties on consumer products — including vehicles. This federal statute provides an additional layer of protection beyond Washington's state lemon law and allows consumers to recover attorney fees, making it possible to pursue claims on a contingency basis.

Does Your Vehicle Qualify for a Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act Claim?

You may have a Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act claim in Washington if your vehicle has a defect covered by a written warranty (manufacturer, dealer, or extended), the warrantor has failed to repair the defect after being given a reasonable opportunity, and the defect substantially impairs the vehicle's use or value. Unlike some state lemon laws, Magnuson-Moss can also cover used vehicles with active warranties and may apply to vehicles outside the state lemon law's time or mileage limits.

The Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act Claims Process in Washington

Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act claims in Washington are filed in state or federal court. Your attorney will document the warranty breach, demonstrate that the manufacturer was given reasonable repair opportunities, and seek remedies including the cost of the vehicle, repair costs, incidental and consequential damages, and attorney fees. The Act's fee-shifting provision (manufacturer pays your attorney fees if you win) makes these cases economically viable even for moderate-value claims.

Choosing a Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act Attorney in Washington

When selecting a Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act attorney in Washington, prioritize attorneys with federal court experience who understand both the federal statute and Washington's complementary state laws. Look for attorneys who can explain how Magnuson-Moss interacts with your state lemon law to maximize your recovery, and who have experience litigating against major auto manufacturers in both state and federal forums.
