4) Lemon Law in New Mexico applies to used vehicles as well.

Timing is important
The more the user waits to file a claim, the more likely his claim will be rejected. This is because the more he uses the car, the more there will eb wear and tear. Hence it will be difficult to judge if the defect is due to user carelessness/ driving behavior or due to a defect at the manufacturing stage. If the defect is in a new car, then it becomes very easy to pin the blame on manufacturer as the user is still to use it extensively (i.e. in the 1st year).
