This paper studies the directions and contents of legislation of consumer goods warranty law. In consumer goods sales, a warranty is a collateral assurance or guarantee that certain facets of an article or service sold is as factually stated or legally implied by the seller, and that often provides for a specific remedy such as repair or replacement in the event the article or service fails to meet the warranty.
Governments should promote warranty through laws. The typical laws on warranty are Framework act on consumers, Civil Act, Regulation of standardized contract act, Automobile management act, Seed industry act, and so on.
This paper intended to present a suitable alternative for the present with the normative analysis, the legislative analysis on the warranty laws. The object of this paper proposes alternatives about the improvement legislation of warranty laws with performing the retrospective evaluation in warranty laws. I hope that these alternatives will be utilized as the useful legislative materials to enacting consumer goods warranty laws in the future.
Finally, Consumer Goods Warranty Law aims to harmonize those parts of consumer sale contract law that concern legal guarantees (warranties) and, to a lesser extent, commercial guarantees. Its main element is that the seller has to guarantee the conformity of the goods with the contract for a period of two years after the delivery of the goods. If the goods are not delivered in conformity with the sales contract, consumers can ask for the goods to be repaired, replaced, reduced in price or for the contract to be rescinded. The final seller, who is responsible to the consumer, can also hold the producer liable in their business relationship.
