Have not read article(?) but have heard about this story on the radio.
By the sounds of it, they class any car with a malfunction as a lemon?
If so, I strongly disagree.
I class a lemon as a car that repeatedly faults.
Whether it be the same concern, or a new one.
Working in a stealer ship, I see some, and some genuine 1 offs.
I actually bought a new car 2 weeks ago.
Steering lock is louder than normal, but still works flawlessly.
I wouldn't call it a lemon.
Also, most one issues we see are iphail related. And most start after in iphail update.
Very rarley (but still happen) do we get complaints of android phones.
Seems apple just do what they want, and expect everyone else to sort it out.
