Lotus ELISE 2007 Owner's Handbook Manual page 178

Lotus Cars USA requires that, before you seek a remedy,
you provide Lotus Cars USA (at the address set forth above)
with written notification of the defect or nonconformity.
In this way, Lotus Cars USA will be afforded an opportunity to
perform any necessary repairs. Where appropriate, an addi-
tional lemon law information sheet is provided with this owner's
manual.
Arbitration Programs
Some states have state-run arbitration programs that you can
use to pursue lemon law remedies. These programs are oper-
ated by state agencies, and such agencies may be contacted
for additional information.
In some states that do not have state-run programs, Lotus
Cars USA may participate in private arbitration or mediation
programs. In these states, additional information will be provided
to you separately.
Where either a state-run or private arbitration program is in
effect, to the extent allowed be law, Lotus Cars USA requires
that your lemon law claim first be brought before such program
before you pursue other remedies.
THIS WARRANTY GIVES YOU SPECIFIC LEGAL RIGHTS
AND YOU MAY ALSO HAVE OTHER RIGHTS WHICH VARY
FROM STATE TO STATE.
