I have sent a message to Tessa Salazar about this. I'm just waiting what she comes up with. It could be another article for her too. hehehe

I certainly don't want to get hit by a lemon but I definitely want a safety net just in case. Stuffs are getting to be real complicated and no matter how extensive a manufacturer tests its products, something's bound to fail somehow, somewhere.

New Senate bill seeks major changes in the Philippine Lemon Law | Autodeal

A new senate bill has recently been filed that seeks to put in major changes to the Philippine Lemon Law. Senate Bill 2356 (SB 2356) which substitutes Senate Bill 2064 seeks to make some major amendments to the Republic Act 10642: the Philippine Lemon Law.

The new bill was filed on August 23, 2021, by Sen Koko Pimentel II. One of the amendments of the new bill seeks to reduce the individual repair attempts on a vehicle before the consumer can available of his or her rights under the law. The bill seeks to reduce this amount from four down to just two instead.

Another amendment that Senate Bill 2356 seeks to fix is that the dealer/distributor/retailer should provide new parts for the vehicle under repair within 14 days. If they cannot do this, then the consumer can file a complaint with the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) to avail of their rights. It is important to note that the “days” mentioned are calendar days and not business days.
