Rolls-Royce Models Frequently Reported

Ghost - Transmission, engine, electrical failures

Wraith - Transmission, infotainment, engine stalling

Dawn - Convertible top malfunctions, AC failures

Why These Qualify as Lemon Issues

Repetition matters: Lemon law applies when the same defect persists after multiple repair attempts.

Safety concerns: Transmission failures, suspension defects, and engine stalls are considered serious risks.

Warranty coverage: Issues occurring under warranty and remaining unresolved strengthen lemon law claims.

 

Takeaway

Even ultra-luxury brands like Rolls-Royce are not immune to defects. If your Phantom, Ghost, Wraith, Dawn, or Cullinan experiences persistent, unrepairable issues—especially in transmission, suspension, electrical systems, or infotainment—it may qualify as a lemon. Documenting repair attempts and service delays is critical for pursuing compensation or a buyback under lemon law protections.
