- Lemon
- A car that continues to be defective after a reasonable number of attempts at repair, or after the car has been out of commission for a certain period of time. Under most state lemon laws, the owner has the option --often exercised after arbitration or a lawsuit -- of getting a refund or a replacement vehicle.
