Where each value comes from

This source states these in separate places, so each value is shown with the passage that states it.

Devices covered

“Wheelchair” means any wheelchair, including a demonstrator, that a consumer purchases or accepts transfer of in this state.

Coverage period

2. A manufacturer who sells a wheelchair to a consumer, either directly or through a wheelchair dealer, shall furnish the consumer with an express warranty for the wheelchair. The duration of the express warranty shall not be less than one year after first delivery of the wheelchair to the consumer. In the absence of an express warranty from the manufacturer, the manufacturer shall be deemed to have expressly warranted to the consumer of a wheelchair that, for a period of one year from the date of first delivery to the consumer, the wheelchair will be free from any condition or defect which substantially impairs the value of the wheelchair to the consumer.

Repair attempts required and Days out of service

“Reasonable attempt to repair” means that, within the term of an express warranty applicable to a new wheelchair, any nonconformity within the warranty is either subject to repair by the manufacturer, wheelchair lessor or any of the manufacturer’s authorized wheelchair dealers, for at least three times and a nonconformity continues, or that the wheelchair is out of service for an aggregate of at least thirty days because of warranty nonconformity, after having been returned to the manufacturer, wheelchair lessor or any of the manufacturer’s authorized wheelchair dealers for repair.

Remedy

During the warranty period, if any condition or defect cannot be repaired after three attempts or if your wheelchair is out of service for a total of thirty days for repairs to any condition or defect which substantially impairs the use, value or safety of the wheelchair, you are entitled to either a comparable new wheelchair or a refund or, if you are leasing a wheelchair, replacement of your wheelchair with a comparable new wheelchair or a refund of the full purchase price plus any finance charge and collateral costs, minus a reasonable allowance for use.
