Do I have to go to my dealer for all auto repairs? If I don’t, will that negate my rights under lemon laws?
Yes and no. Yes, for all repairs covered under the warranty. If you opt not to use the dealer where you purchased your car, you still have to go to an “authorized dealer.” No for oil changes and most regular maintenance, but check your warranty before you make that decision. If you use a non-authorized mechanic for repairs under warranty, you will probably negate your warranty and, consequently, your rights under lemon laws. Some aftermarket product installations have the same effect.
