No, i am not a lawyer...Are you a Lawyer?
I've had issues with vehicle manufacturers and insurance companies previously so i've learnt to read ACL/policies and interpret the law in my favour where ever possible. It's amasing how companies can back down when it's reasonably clear that a customers interpretation of the law/policy is difficult to agrue against. Stands ones ground and not taking the companies faulty self serving view is also helpful. Having a situation that is reletively straight forward should it go to court also does wonders...
What people often forget is that the law makes no mention that repairs must be accepted if they are cheap for the seller to perform. The law only mentions that one sufferes a major fault, the purchaser can choose the remedy, be it repair, replacement or full refund. Yet people still take a corporate view that if it's a cheap repair, they have to accept it...
In this instance, with the Ford shenanigans, the court has taken the view that i've always held. ACL as written trumps corporate bullsh!t.
I've still to find and read the Ford ruling...
