Lemon laws won’t help you here because they have a fix. It sucks but that’s how it works :/

At least in FL, after 30 days out of service you can initiate the lemon law buyback, even if they have a fix. Basically the dealer can't just keep your car for an indefinite amount of time taking their sweet time to fix it. Once you notify them of the filing they have 10 days to direct you to a shop (in theory the car is already there) and then 10 days post that to fix. If the car cannot be fixed within that timeframe they have to buy it back.

Some googling seems to indicate TX has a similar 30 days out of service clause in their lemon law, so JULESWTX, I'd check into the TX laws and see if you meet that criteria if that's the path you're thinking about.

Yes thank you this is very informative. I will definitely look into it.
