Consumer Protection questions, cited

How does California's lemon law work?

The Song–Beverly Consumer Warranty Act (Cal. Civ. Code § 1790 et seq.) requires a manufacturer that cannot repair a warranted new vehicle after a reasonable number of attempts to replace it or refund the price (Civ. Code § 1793.2(d)). A statutory presumption aids claims when qualifying repair attempts occur within 18 months or 18,000 miles (§ 1793.22). Willful violations expose the maker to a civil penalty up to twice actual damages, and prevailing buyers recover attorney fees (§ 1794).

What can I do about abusive debt collectors in California?

The Rosenthal Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (Cal. Civ. Code § 1788 et seq.) and the federal FDCPA (15 U.S.C. § 1692) prohibit harassment, false threats, and misrepresentation in consumer debt collection — and unlike federal law, the Rosenthal Act reaches original creditors. Remedies include actual damages, statutory penalties, and attorney fees; Rosenthal claims must be filed within one year (Civ. Code § 1788.30(f)).

How do I fix errors on my credit report?

Dispute the item in writing with the credit bureau, which must reasonably reinvestigate within about 30 days (15 U.S.C. § 1681i). If a bureau or the furnisher fails to correct inaccurate information after a proper dispute, the Fair Credit Reporting Act and California's Consumer Credit Reporting Agencies Act (Cal. Civ. Code § 1785.1 et seq.) allow suits for actual damages, statutory damages for willful violations, and attorney fees.

What is the CLRA and what does it cover?

The Consumers Legal Remedies Act (Cal. Civ. Code § 1750 et seq.) bans a list of unfair and deceptive practices in consumer sales — misrepresenting quality, false discounts, bait advertising. Before suing for damages, the consumer must send a 30-day pre-suit demand letter (§ 1782). Remedies include damages, restitution, injunctions, punitive damages, and attorney fees (§ 1780); claims run three years (§ 1783).

Can I cancel a contract I was pressured into signing at home?

Often yes. California's home solicitation rules give a three-business-day cancellation right for many door-to-door and in-home sales over $25 (Cal. Civ. Code § 1689.5 et seq.), extended to five days for buyers 65 and older. Sellers must provide notice of the right; failure to do so extends the cancellation window. Similar cooling-off rules cover gym memberships, dating services, and seminar sales.
