What are your legal rights during the United Auto Workers strike?

Published Fri, 21 Feb 2025 10:43:21 GMT

The United Auto Workers strike may soon leave drivers stranded and in need of vehicle parts. A local expert says the strike will start to dramatically exacerbate the problem for consumers and dealers alike.“This has been going on since COVID. They had an excuse in the beginning. Now, they don’t,” said consumer attorney Robert Silverman with 1-800-Lemon-Law.He has been fielding complaint calls from potential clients with vehicles tied up at dealerships.“The problem is they’re not being given loaners. They’re being promised that if they rent a car, they’ll be reimbursed. The reimbursement is below the market. So, they can’t get a vehicle,” Silverman told WTOP.But he said consumers do have legal rights: “Every state has a lemon law.”Under the lemon law, Silverman said, consumers could get a brand-new car or a substantial refund if their car has been out of service for a long period of time.“Generally, it will inclu...

So, without a working elevator, she can’t leave her apartment.“I see it as a disrespect to those who are in need because they’re thinking of themselves but they’re not thinking of those who really need it,” Montes said. Bob Burress, who is also disabled, feels his home is now a prison.“This has been very challenging,” he said. “…I just try to deal with my day and take it one day at a time.”Burress’ day was interrupted ...
