Missouri lemon law

Missouri covers new vehicles for the first 12 months or 12,000 miles. The 30-working-day out-of-service threshold (rather than calendar days) effectively extends the window to roughly 6 weeks of dealer time.

Frequently asked questions

How many repair attempts does Missouri require?

Missouri generally requires 4 attempts for the same substantial defect, or a cumulative 30 working days out of service, within first 12 months / 12,000 mi.

Does the Missouri lemon law cover used cars?

No — new vehicles only

Claims must generally be brought within the Missouri coverage window (First 12 months / 12,000 mi) or shortly after it expires. Document every repair order, because the repair-attempt count is what proves the claim.
