§

2A-210. Express warranties

(1) Express

warranties by the lessor are created as follows:

(a) Any

affirmation of fact or promise made by the lessor to the lessee which relates

to the goods and becomes part of the basis of the bargain creates an express warranty

that the goods will conform to the affirmation or promise.

(b) Any

description of the goods which is made part of the basis of the bargain creates

an express warranty that the goods will conform to the description.

(c) Any sample

or model that is made part of the basis of the bargain creates an express

warranty that the whole of the goods will conform to the sample or model.

(2) It is not

necessary to the creation of an express warranty that the lessor use formal

words, such as "warrant" or "guarantee," or that the lessor

have a specific intention to make a warranty, but an affirmation merely of the

value of the goods or a statement purporting to be merely the lessor's opinion

or commendation of the goods does not create a warranty. (Added 1993, No. 158

(Adj. Sess.), § 10, eff. Jan. 1, 1995.)
