Speak to a lemon law lawyer and see what they say. I don't think this would qualify but I am also not an attorney.

Maybe not. I am not a lawyer, but three attempts is likely not the only factor.
Depending on state, a reasonable number of attempts can mean the vehicle has been out of service for repair of one or more nonconformities for a cumulative total of 30 or more days.
Imagine the first attempt takes a year to fix -- would the consumer just be out of luck? Unlikely. There is often a time factor that overrides. 30 days seems to be the cut off in Florida, but consult a lawyer.
