§2308 Implied Warranties
Title 15 › Chapter 50— CONSUMER PRODUCT WARRANTIES › § 2308
Summary
Sellers must not cancel or change the implied warranty on a consumer product if they give a written warranty or if they offer a service contract at sale or within 90 days after sale. An implied warranty can be shortened to match a reasonable written warranty only if that limit is fair and written clearly and prominently on the warranty. Any attempt to cancel, change, or limit an implied warranty that breaks these rules is not valid under federal or state law.
