Many of the consumer protections we take for granted today were not guaranteed in the past. Legal action has resulted in laws to protect consumers on a state-by-state and on a federal basis, including lemon laws that protect consumers from pricey repairs on newly purchased cars. While there are no laws mandating automakers to provide a warranty on the new cars they sell, it has become an industry standard. And it all started with one of the most influential, yet often forgotten, U.S. automakers, the American Motors Corporation (AMC).
