Originally posted by slartibartfast01 In the UK the Sale of Goods act allows a claim to be made for faulty goods for 6 years even without an extended warranty.
It would still need to show the below wasn't met. A loaf of bread that has turned to mold after 6 years would certainly not meet the requirements, not even a Twinkie. The suite seems to be about what this part contains even though it is in the States.
For the purposes of this Act, goods are of satisfactory quality if they meet the standard that a reasonable person would regard as satisfactory, taking account of any description of the goods, the price (if relevant) and all the other relevant circumstances.
(2B)For the purposes of this Act, the quality of goods includes their state and condition and the following (among others) are in appropriate cases aspects of the quality of goods—
(a)fitness for all the purposes for which goods of the kind in question are commonly supplied,
(b)appearance and finish,
(c)freedom from minor defects,
(d)safety, and
(e)durability.
