lemon law question

if you have a leased rx8.. (which you put a down on)... and after 11 months of ownership they lemon it.. what happens? do you get ur down payment + all monthly payments so far back? or do they just give u another rx8? or another mazda? how does it work

thanks

It deffinately goes by state, you should be able to google it to find out what the specifics are for your state. I would imagine there would give you another 8 or end your lease. I cant imagine your going to get anything refunded other than your deposite. Are you sure your vehicle is going to apply for the lemon? I thought it was tuff to do.

the dealer should gave you the booklet already with the owner's manual.
it say they will refund or replace your car, call this number 1-800-222-5500, and ask them.
