Warranty

Defective
Defective refers to something that is incomplete or faulty. In legal and consumer contexts, it signifies that an item is not reasonably safe for a use that can be reasonably anticipated.
Guaranty
A guaranty is a legal promise to fulfill another party's debt or contractual obligations if that party fails to do so.
Implied Warranty
An implied warranty is a legal term referring to the assurance that a product or service meets certain standards of quality and functionality, even if this warranty is not explicitly stated in writing. It contrasts with an express warranty, which is explicitly communicated.
Limited Warranty
A limited warranty is a type of warranty that imposes certain limitations and is, therefore, not a full warranty. For example, an automaker may issue a warranty that covers parts but not labor for a particular period.
Warranty
A warranty is a guarantee provided by a seller to a buyer that the goods or services purchased will perform as promised. If not, a refund, exchange, or repair will be offered at no charge.
