"SHOPPERS are wasting tens of millions of dollars buying extended warranties for goods that are already covered for free under little-known federal consumer laws.
South Australian Consumer Affairs Commissioner Paul White said in many cases it was pointless to pay for extended warranties on items such as whitegoods and electronic equipment."
Does this mean too that (say) a caravan manufacturer's warranty is not limited to its specified time where a serious defect evidences? A caravan is expersive and the purchaser is withing his/her rights to expect durability beyond the expressed year or few of stated warranty.
