CASE STUDY
After closing from work one day, Mr Adam decided to stop by a Departmental Store to check out the latest TV sets in stock with a view to replacing the old one at home. The store manager, Miss Bianca took Mr Adam round to show him all they have got in stock and answer all his questions about the TV sets. Adam was particularly impressed with one of the TV sets which the store manager described as ‘very high quality, durable and good value for money’. This was also written and pasted on the TV set as well. Mr Adam decided to purchase the flat screen 42?inch remote control TV set and after signing all the paper works, Mr Adam was informed that the TV set would be delivered to his house within the next three working days. Mr Adam was very happy when his new TV set was eventually delivered and installed by the engineers of the Departmental store.
The TV set was working fine for the first three weeks. However one fine day just as he sat down to enjoy the Sunday afternoon film, there was a flash and puffs of smoke could be seen coming out from the back of the set. When he called and informed the Departmental store about it, they said when the TV set was installed, it was working well and that Mr Adam had even signed the document issued by the engineers who had installed it as prove that everything was okay before they left, hence they will not be accepting any responsibility for the faulty TV. The Departmental Store also said the contractual document which Adam had signed had a clause which made it clear that the Store accepts no responsibility for the malfunctioning of goods once supplied and installed. Mr Adam has now come to you for advice as to what his options are in law.
