DiCintio leased for a three-year period from Adzan Auto Sales a Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo sport utility vehicle manufactured by DaimlerChrysler.
Soon after accepting delivery, the automatic transmission failed to shift gears properly, and then the vehicle started to pull to the left while being driven, after which it began to "idle rough" and stall while stopped at traffic lights. DiCintio took the vehicle to authorized dealers for repairs on six or seven occasions, but the defects persisted.
When Adzan Auto Sales refused to terminate the lease or give him another car, DiContio brought suit against DaimlerChrysler for breach of the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act. Does DiCintio have a cause of action under this law? Explain.
Mark DiCintio v. DaimlerChrysler Corporation, et al, 768 NE2d 1121 (NY).
