BROWN, J.
The relevant facts as designated by the parties follow. On October 10, 2006, Brent A. Losier, the president of MHP, purchased a Jeep from an authorized Chrysler dealership. On November 30, 2006, Losier took the Jeep to a repair facility authorized by Chrysler complaining that, while he had been operating the Jeep one night, “all the warning lights in the dash came on, the vehicle’s gauges ceased to function and the headlights spontaneously shut off.” Appellant’s Appendix at 24. Without making any repairs, Chrysler returned the vehicle to Losier on December 4, 2006.
On April 4, 2007, Losier took the Jeep to a repair facility authorized by Chrysler complaining that, while he had been operating the vehicle, “all the warning lights in the dash came on, the vehicle’s gauges ceased to function and the transmission spontaneously shifted into low gear.” Id. Without making any repairs, Chrysler returned the vehicle to Losier on April 5, 2007.
On June 6, 2007, Losier took the Jeep to a repair facility authorized by Chrysler complaining that, while he had been operating the vehicle, “all the warning lights in the dash came on, the vehicle’s gauges (except for the fuel gauge) ceased to function, the gear indicator indicated the vehicle was in drive while it was in park, the headlights spontaneously shut off (and then spontaneously came back on), and the transmission spontaneously shifted into low gear.” Id. at 25. Without making any repairs, Chrysler returned the vehicle to Losier on June 13, 2008.
On July 12, 2007, Losier took the Jeep to a repair facility authorized by Chrysler complaining that, while he had been operating the vehicle, “all the warning lights in the dash came on, the vehicle’s gauges ceased to function, and the driver’s seat spontaneously moved forward.” Id. A technician “inspected all of the wiring and checked the connectors . . . and couldn’t find anything wrong.” Id. at 229. Chrysler did not make any repairs to the vehicle. On July 18, 2007, MHP wrote a letter to Chrysler “advising [Chrysler] of a claim under the Indiana Motor Vehicle Protection Act.” Id. at 25. MHP thus asserted its rights under Indiana’s Lemon Law following the fourth unsuccessful repair attempt and prior to taking the vehicle in for yet another repair attempt.
On September 7, 2007, Losier was again driving the Jeep when “all the warning lights in the dash came on and the vehicle’s gauges ceased to function.” Id. at 229. Losier took the Jeep to a repair facility authorized by Chrysler while the vehicle was still malfunctioning, and the technicians made repairs to it. Specifically, the technicians “replaced the front control module.” Id.

The Indiana Motor Vehicle Protection Act, commonly known as the Lemon Law, is found at Ind. Code §§ 24-5-13-1 to -24. Lemon Laws have been enacted across the country in response to the problem “that once the buyer has bought a lemon, the dealer or manufacturer, for any number of reasons, is either unwilling or unable to take all steps necessary toward giving the buyer what the dealer and the manufacturer promised: a defect free, safe and reliable automobile reasonably worth its purchase price.” Harold Greenberg, The Indiana Motor Vehicle Protection Act of 1988: The Real Thing for Sweetening the Lemon or Merely a Weak Artificial Sweetener?, 22 IND. L. REV. 57, 58 (1989).
Ind. Code § 24-5-13-8 provides:
If a motor vehicle suffers from a nonconformity and the buyer reports the nonconformity within the term of protection to the manufacturer of the vehicle, its agent, or its authorized dealer then the manufacturer of the motor vehicle or the manufacturer’s agent or authorized dealer shall make the repairs that are necessary to correct the nonconformity, even if the repairs are made after expiration of the term of protection.
“Nonconformity” means “any specific or generic defect or condition or any concurrent combination of defects or conditions that: (1) substantially impairs the use, market value, or safety of a motor vehicle; or (2) renders the motor vehicle nonconforming to the terms of an applicable manufacturer’s warranty.” Ind. Code § 24-5-13-6. “Term of protection” means a period of time that:
(1) begins:
(A) on the date of original delivery of a motor vehicle to a buyer; or
(B) in the case of a replacement vehicle provided by a manufacturer to a buyer under this chapter, on the date of delivery of the replacement vehicle to the buyer; and
(2) ends the earlier of: (A) eighteen (18) months after the date identified under subdivision (1); or (B) the time the motor vehicle has been driven eighteen thousand (18,000) miles after the date identified under subdivision (1).
Ind. Code § 24-5-13-7.
Ind. Code § 24-5-13-10 provides:
If, after a reasonable number of attempts, the manufacturer, its agent, or authorized dealer is unable to correct the nonconformity, the manufacturer shall accept the return of the vehicle from the buyer and, at the buyer’s option, either, within thirty (30) days, refund the amount paid by the buyer or provide a replacement vehicle of comparable value.
Ind. Code § 24-5-13-15(a)(1) provides that “[a] reasonable number of attempts is considered to have been undertaken to correct a nonconformity if: . . . the nonconformity has been subject to repair at least four (4) times by the manufacturer or its agents or authorized dealers, but the nonconformity continues to exist.” An action brought under the Indiana Lemon Law must be commenced within two years following the date the buyer first reports the nonconformity to the manufacturer, its agent, or authorized dealer. Ind. Code § 24-5-13-23(a).
MHP argues that the nonconformity in this case was subject to repair four times but continued to exist. MHP argues that the trial court therefore erred when it concluded that the Lemon Law required “that the nonconformity continue to exist after each additional repair attempt that follows a reasonable number of repair attempts” under Ind. Code § 24-5-13-15(a). . . . Chrysler, on the other hand, argues that the grant of summary judgment in its favor is proper because MHP failed to show that the nonconformity continued to exist after its fifth attempt at having the vehicle repaired. Indiana courts have not yet addressed this issue.
. . . .
. . . We hold that the plain language of Ind. Code § 24-5-13-15(a)(1) obligates a consumer to demonstrate that the vehicle was subject to repair at least four times and that the same defective condition remained unresolved after the fourth attempt. Therefore, once a consumer has met the four-repair threshold and the defect remains unresolved, the requirements of Ind. Code § 24-5-13-15(a)(1) have been met. The requirement that the defect “continues to exist” is another way of saying that the fourth repair attempt was unsuccessful.
