Appendix 1: Provisions of the Consumer Code concerning the legal guarantee of conformity

Article L211-4

The seller is required to deliver goods that conform to the contract and is liable for any lack of conformity existing at the time of delivery.

He is also liable for defects in conformity resulting from packaging, assembly instructions or installation when the latter was his responsibility under the contract or was carried out under his supervision.

Article L211-5

To comply with the contract, the goods must:

1° Be fit for the purpose for which similar goods are normally used and, where applicable:

- correspond to the description given by the seller and possess the qualities that the seller presented to the buyer in the form of a sample or model;

- to present the qualities that a buyer can legitimately expect in view of the public statements made by the seller, the producer or their representative, particularly in advertising or labelling;

2° Or present the characteristics defined by mutual agreement between the parties or be suitable for any special purpose sought by the buyer, brought to the attention of the seller and which the latter has accepted.

Article L211-6

The seller is not bound by the public statements of the producer or his representative if it is established that he did not know them and was not legitimately in a position to know them.

Article L211-7

Any lack of conformity which appears within six months of delivery of the goods is presumed to have existed at the time of delivery, unless proven otherwise.

The seller can contest this presumption if it is not compatible with the nature of the goods or the alleged lack of conformity.

Article L211-8

The buyer has the right to demand that the goods conform to the contract. However, they cannot contest conformity by invoking a defect that they knew of or could not have been unaware of when they entered into the contract. The same applies when the defect originates from materials that they themselves supplied.

Article L211-9

In the event of a lack of conformity, the buyer chooses between repair and replacement of the goods.

However, the seller may refuse to proceed according to the buyer's choice if that choice entails a cost that is clearly disproportionate to the other option, taking into account the value of the goods or the significance of the defect. In that case, the seller is obligated to proceed, unless impossible, according to the option not chosen by the buyer.

Article L211-10

If repair and replacement of the goods are impossible, the buyer may return the goods and receive a full refund or keep the goods and receive a partial refund.

The same option is available to him:

1° If the solution requested, proposed or agreed upon pursuant to Article L. 211-9 cannot be implemented within one month of the buyer's claim;

2° Or if this solution cannot be implemented without major inconvenience to the latter, taking into account the nature of the property and the use he seeks.

However, the sale cannot be rescinded if the non-conformity is minor.

Article L211-11

The application of the provisions of articles L. 211-9 and L. 211-10 takes place at no cost to the buyer.

These same provisions do not preclude the awarding of damages.

Article L211-12

The action resulting from the lack of conformity is time-barred after two years from the delivery of the goods.

Article L211-13

The provisions of this section do not deprive the buyer of the right to exercise the action resulting from latent defects as provided for in Articles 1641 to 1649 of the Civil Code or any other action of a contractual or extra-contractual nature which is recognized by law.

Article L211-14

The right of recourse may be exercised by the final seller against successive sellers or intermediaries and the producer of the tangible movable property, according to the principles of the civil code.

Appendix 2: Provisions of the Civil Code concerning the warranty against hidden defects

Article 1641

The seller is bound by the warranty against hidden defects in the thing sold which render it unfit for the use for which it is intended, or which diminish this use to such an extent that the buyer would not have acquired it, or would have given only a lower price, if he had known of them.

Article 1642

The seller is not liable for apparent defects which the buyer could have discovered for himself.

Article 1642-1

The seller of a building under construction cannot be released from liability for construction defects or non-conformities that are apparent at the time, either before the acceptance of the works or before the expiry of a period of one month after the purchaser takes possession.

There will be no grounds for termination of the contract or reduction of the price if the seller undertakes to repair.

Article 1643

He is liable for hidden defects, even if he did not know about them, unless, in that case, he stipulated that he would not be bound by any guarantee.

Article 1644

In the case of articles 1641 and 1643, the buyer has the choice of returning the item and receiving a refund of the price, or keeping the item and receiving a partial refund of the price, as determined by experts.

Article 1645

If the seller knew of the defects in the item, he is liable, in addition to refunding the price he received, for all damages and interest owed to the buyer.

Article 1646

If the seller was unaware of the defects in the item, he will only be required to refund the price and reimburse the buyer for the costs incurred by the sale.

Article 1646-1

There will be no grounds for rescinding the sale or reducing the price if the seller undertakes to repair the damages defined in articles 1792, 1792-1 and 1792-2 of this code and to assume the guarantee provided for in article 1792-3.

Article 1647

If the defective item perished due to its poor quality, the loss is borne by the seller, who will be liable to the buyer for the refund of the price and the other compensation explained in the two preceding articles.

But any loss occurring due to unforeseen circumstances will be borne by the buyer.

Article 1648

The action resulting from latent defects must be brought by the purchaser within two years of the discovery of the defect.

In the case provided for in Article 1642-1, the action must be brought, under penalty of forfeiture, within one year of the date on which the seller can be discharged from the apparent defects or non-conformities.

Article 1649

It does not take place in sales made by judicial authority.
