(1) A consumer who purchases or leases a new facilitative device either directly or indirectly through a dealer or lessor shall receive an express warranty for such facilitative device. The manufacturer shall issue this express warranty that shall extend for not less than one year after first delivery to the consumer.
(2) If a manufacturer or dealer fails to furnish the express warranty required by this section, the facilitative device shall be covered by a warranty the same as if an express warranty had been provided by the manufacturer or dealer pursuant to this section.
(3) Any entity that sells or leases facilitative devices in this state, including any entity that sells or leases through mail order or catalogue sales, shall designate an authorized servicer for such facilitative devices that is accessible to the consumer.
(4)(a) In the event that the selling dealer from whom the consumer purchased the facilitative device goes out of business or ceases to be an authorized dealer or service center for the manufacturer, or if the dealer or consumer moves or relocates to a location that makes it unreasonable for the consumer to seek warranty service from the selling dealer, or if the consumer is dissatisfied with the selling dealer, the consumer shall be responsible for contacting the manufacturer or another authorized dealer which will be responsible for facilitating the warranty service required with an authorized dealer, to be mutually agreed upon by the consumer and the manufacturer, which entity shall be referred to as the “alternative warranty service provider”.
(b) In the event that an alternative warranty service provider is designated pursuant to paragraph (a) of this subsection (4), the consumer may only seek warranty service from such alternative warranty service provider.
