Use one checklist for every warranty repair visit.
A complete final repair order can show what you reported, what the dealer tested, what it changed, how long the vehicle was unavailable, and whether the same condition returned.
California Lemon Law Repair Order Checklist
One-page PDF formatted for printing or saving with your repair records.
Before you authorize the visit
- Describe the symptom in observable terms.
- State when and under what conditions it occurs.
- Ask the advisor to write your complaint accurately.
- Provide safe photos, prior repair numbers, and recurrence mileage.
Before you leave with the vehicle
- Receive the final order even when no repair was performed.
- Confirm dates, mileage, complaint, findings, and correction.
- Look for codes, test results, parts, versions, and road-test notes.
- Keep towing, rental, and other related expense records.
Recurrence rule: If the same condition returns, make a new dated entry with the current mileage. Do not alter the earlier entry. Match the recurrence to the next final repair order.
