Texas owners, any success with Texas Lemon Law?
I was wondering if anyone in Texas has had success with the Texas lemon law without an attorney on a new dodge diesel truck. I really like my truck, but I'm on my 4th check engine light and the last time they did the gasket and cleanup thing instead of replacing the turbo for code p2262, I was basically told that I would be back again (of course not on paper). It seems like even the techs are frustrated with the complaining customers. Anyways, I'm just curious if any Texas owners have had success with the lemon law. Thanks

you've probably already read this, but good info here:
http://www.dot.state.tx.us/services/...nt_process.htm
a word of advice, if the dealer says something, demand they write it down. if they say they won't replace the turbo, say either put it in writing, or replace the turbo, and don't leave until they do. this helped my lemon claim very much. hoping TX members can give you more specific advice.

what kind of attorney did you use? we have contacted several that know nothing about lemon law. thought that maybe your attorney knows one in kansas that we could contact. we are looking for some help. PLEASE, I am a 70 yr old man with cancer and need to get this taken care of.

Well, got another 2262 code and will be getting a new turbo on wednesday. I'm going to say that that will be my fourth with emmissions related problems. Will see what happends after the new turbo. I have had them put specifics on every piece of paper they have given me. Thanks all.
