The following two replies might be of interest to the readers of this List as
there seems to be some differences of understanding.
Al Pike, CP
First person:
>> In Ca we have the statute that says that everything has a normal and
expected useful life span. I am not sure that the law is specific to any
product, but for instance in CA if you buy a pen and it doesn't write after a
few days theoretically you could sue to get you money back from a defective
device, the problem not addressed is that a prosthesis is a
service as well as a product. >>>
Second person:
>> The law referred to below is Section 1793.02 of the California Civil
Code. Paraphrased, this states that all new and used assistive devices sold
at retail in California shall be accompanied by a written warranty <like that
happens> which says that the device is warranted to be specifically fit for
the needs of the buyer, and that if it is not specifically fit for such
needs, the buyer may return the device to the seller within 30 days of actual
receipt or completion of fitting, whichever occurs later. It goes on to say
that if the device is returned, the seller will either adjust or replace the
device or promptly refund the total amount paid. >>>>
