7. Warranty and Liability for Defects
7.1 Warranty Period
Seat Innovation AS warrants that the Product is free from defects. The warranty is valid for one (1) year from the date the end-user receives the      goods, or two (2) years from the date the goods arrive at the Purchaser’s warehouse—whichever occurs first. Repairs or replacements carry a warranty of one (1) year from the date of repair or replacement.
7.2 Upholstery
5 Year Warranty for genuine leather and PU upholstery, 7 Year Warranty for PVC.
7.3 Notification of Defects
The Purchaser must notify defects in writing without undue delay, and no later than four (4) weeks after the warranty period expires. Immediate notice is required for defects posing risk of damage.
7.4 Remedial Measures
Confirmed defects shall be remedied promptly at the Seller’s expense. Repairs normally occur at the Product’s location unless return is required. Dismantling/reinstallation by the Seller applies if special expertise is required; otherwise, delivery of a repaired or replaced part fulfils the obligation.
7.5 Costs of Unfounded Claims
If no covered defect is found, the Purchaser shall reimburse the Seller for costs incurred.
7.6 Additional Costs
Unless agreed in writing, the seller bears costs for dismantling, installation, travel, labour, or transport.
7.7 Ownership of Replaced Parts
Defective parts remain the Seller’s property.
7.8 Failure to Remedy
​If the Seller fails to remedy a defect within three (3) months of notice, the Purchaser may give a final written deadline. If still unmet, the Purchaser may remedy the defect at the Seller’s risk and expense, and reimbursement of reasonable costs shall constitute full settlement.
7.9 Purchase Price Reduction
If a defect is not remedied, the Purchaser may reduce the purchase price proportionate to the reduced value.
7.10 Exclusions
Liability does not cover defects from Purchaser-supplied materials, misuse, improper maintenance, unauthorized alterations, or normal wear and tear.
