The Louisiana redhibition law is one of the best "lemon" laws in the country. It is available to buyers who find themselves stuck with any kind of lemon-new or used.
The Louisiana Redhibition Law provides that the dealer warrants to you that the vehicle sold is free from all redhibitory defects. A defect is considered to have a redhibitory defect when the vehicle is so substantially defective that you would not have bought it in the first place, had you known of its defects.
The existence of the defect gives you the right to obtain a rescission of the sale and a refund of your money, including down payment, interest, and costs.
REDUCTION OF THE SALE PRICE
A defect is also redhibitory if it may be presumed that you would have still purchased the vehicle but for a lesser price. The existence of such a defect entitles you to a reduction of the sale price.
What is an Action in Redhibition?
An Action in Redhibition is a civil lawsuit filed against the seller and/or manufacturer of a product in which the buyer demands a full refund or a reduction in the purchase price. The lawsuit is brought because the vehicle has a hidden defect that prevents it from performing the task for which it was purchased. Most consumer products carry an implied warranty of merchantability. If a product is so substantially defective that you would not have bought it in the first place, had you known of its defects, you may have grounds for filing such a lawsuit.
