Determining how many chances a dealer gets - is easy.
Simply Review the four-times test, the serious-safety-hazard test or the 30-days test.
The law presumes you have given the manufacturer or authorized dealer a reasonable number of attempts to fix the defect if you pass one of these tests. The mileage requirements generally do not apply to TRVs.
Serious-Safety-Hazard TestIf you have taken the vehicle for repair of a serious safety hazard:
you pass the serious-safety-hazard test.
Four-Times TestIf you have taken the vehicle to a dealership for repairs:
you pass the four-times test.
30-Days TestIf your vehicle has been out of service for repair because of problems covered by the warranty:
you pass the 30-days test.
If a comparable loaner vehicle was provided while the vehicle was being repaired, that time does not count toward the 30 days.
