What is...Lemon law buyback Saw a car that stated this in the ad. Looked it up on google, but still not sure how bad of a thing this is.
Do people generally stay away from a car that has been designated as a Lemon law buyback? Should it have a large affect on the price?
Thanks..
Realize this might not be the correct forum..sorry if its wrong.

Lemon law buy back means the manufacturer bought the car back from the consumer due to issues. It could have been back for 3+ times to the dealer for the same issue or in the shop for 30+ days in the first 18mos/18K miles.
My 2005 GTO is being lemoned because of a electrical drain issue that they dealer has not been able to find. It has been in 6 times for it. I would stay away from lemoned cars, they thought they had mine fixed 6 times and they were wrong. You could be buying a nightmare.

^^^^^^ is correct.
Each state varries a little before you can use the law. It means the car has had some serious issues while under warranty. Maybe not extreme issues... but backordered parts could keep a vehicle there. It's a crap shoot either way. I would stay away from the vehicle.
