Did you know that if something you own is defective and you get it repaired three times for the same problem, you may be entitled to a free replacement under "lemon law?"

Every state has its own lemon law statute, but all consumers are protected under the federal Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act.

Lemon laws often involve cars, but some states have lemon laws covering all goods. California's lemon laws even cover toasters.

If you have a product that's failing even after a couple of repairs, you might want to check out lemon law info by state. — BEN POPKEN
