Your rights
A do-not-drive order is the clearest lemon law fact there is
A stop-drive recall is the most serious instruction a manufacturer can issue. Volvo is telling you that your vehicle is too dangerous to operate at all.
You do not need to argue about whether the defect substantially impairs the use of your vehicle. The manufacturer has removed the use of your vehicle entirely, and put it in writing. Every day the car sits undriveable is a day it is out of service — and California counts those days.
If you are still making payments on a car you have been ordered not to drive, that is precisely the harm the Song-Beverly Act exists to remedy.
A recall is not automatically a lemon. It is the manufacturer admitting a defect and offering to fix it free — that is the system working. A lemon law claim arises when the fix fails, the fix never comes, or the defect has already taken the use of your vehicle away from you.
