The Consumer Arbitration Program (CAP-Motors) is a free service for owners of automobiles and motorcycles with warranty disputes.

The CAP-Motors program offers mediation and arbitration to eligible consumers and participating manufacturers to resolve disputes involving vehicles covered under the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act and state lemon law where applicable.

In mediation, the parties are invited to discuss the dispute and jointly develop a resolution with the assistance of a neutral third party. In arbitration, the parties bring their case to an Arbitrator who reviews the complaint and makes a decision. Arbitrated decisions are binding on the manufacturer, once accepted by the consumer. Arbitrators and Mediators are professionals trained on the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, local state lemon laws, and the specific rules and guidelines of the CAP-Motors program.
