Georgia-specific factors
- State arbitration through Consumer Protection Division creates a free, fast path for clean refund/replacement cases.
- 1-attempt rule for serious safety defects under § 10-1-784(b) — among the most consumer-friendly tests in the country.
- 24-month / 24,000-mile Rights Period is broader than most major states.
- FBPA exemplary damages amplify recoveries when willfulness is documented.
- Major manufacturing presence in Georgia — Kia West Point assembly, Hyundai Metaplant (Bryan County), Mercedes-Benz USA HQ (Atlanta) — drives substantial case volume.
- Atlanta-area dealer density plus rapid Sun Belt EV adoption (Tesla, Hyundai Ioniq 5, Kia EV6 built in-state) generates elevated EV-specific filings.
