While there is no State Lemon Law in Illinois for used cars, there is a federal lemon law that provides protection to consumers who buy used cars. More specifically, in 1975, the United States Congress enacted the federal Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, which has come to be known as the federal "Lemon Law."

This law provides that if a warrantor of a consumer product fails to comply with the obligations of its warranty, i.e. repair a defect in the product, that the consumer may bring a claim against the warrantor seeking damages and attorneys' fees.
