							7.11 Warranty Laws
The following laws govern warranties that arise in retail sales of consu\
mer goods:
 
 The California Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act [CC §§1790 et seq],
 
 The California Uniform Commercial Code, Division Two [Com C §§2101 et seq], and 
 
 The federal Magnuson-Moss Warranty Federal Trade Commission Improvement Act [15 
USC §§2301 et seq; 16 CFR Parts 701– 703]. A typical Magnuson-M\
oss Act warranty is a
 
written promise that the product is free of defects or a written promise\
 to refund, repair, or 
replace defective goods. [See 15 USC §2301(6).] Remedies include da\
mages for failing to 
honor a written warranty or service contract or for violating disclosure\
 provisions. [See 15 
USC §2310(d).] Except for some labeling and disclosure requirements\
, the federal Act does 
not preempt state law. [See 15 USC §2311.]
The Consumer Warranty Act does not affect the rights and obligations of parties under \
the 
state Uniform Commercial Code, except the provisions of the Act prevail \
over provisions of the 
Commercial Code when they confl ict. [CC §1790.3.]
For purposes of small claims actions, this course will focus on rights a\
nd duties under the state 
laws.
