Appendix 1: Provisions of the Consumer Code concerning the legal guarantee of conformity
Article L211-4
The seller is required to deliver a good in conformity with the contract and is liable for any lack of conformity existing at the time of delivery.
He shall also be liable for defects in conformity resulting from packaging, assembly instructions or installation where the latter has been charged to him by the contract or has been carried out under his responsibility.
Article L211-5
To be in conformity with the contract, the property must:
1° Be suitable for the use usually expected of a similar good and, where applicable:
- correspond to the description given by the seller and possess the qualities that the seller presented to the buyer in the form of a sample or model;
- have the qualities that a buyer can legitimately expect in view of public statements made by the seller, the producer or his representative, in particular in advertising or labelling;
2° Or have the characteristics defined by mutual agreement between the parties or be suitable for any special use sought by the buyer, brought to the attention of the seller and accepted by the latter.
Article L211-6
The seller is not bound by the public statements of the producer or his representative if it is established that he did not know them and was legitimately unable to know them.
Article L211-7
Lack of conformity which becomes apparent within six months of delivery of the goods shall be presumed to exist at the time of delivery, unless proven otherwise.
The seller may rebut this presumption if it is not compatible with the nature of the goods or the alleged lack of conformity.
Article L211-8
The buyer is entitled to demand that the goods comply with the contract. However, he cannot contest conformity by invoking a defect that he knew or could not have been unaware of when he contracted it. The same shall apply where the defect has its origin in the materials supplied by him.
Article L211-9
In the event of lack of conformity, the buyer chooses between repair and replacement of the goods.
However, the seller may not proceed according to the buyer's choice if this choice entails a cost that is clearly disproportionate to the other method, taking into account the value of the goods or the importance of the defect. He is then required to proceed, unless impossible, according to the method not chosen by the buyer.
Article L211-10-10
If repair and replacement of the property is not possible, the buyer may return the property and have the price returned or keep the property and have part of the price returned.
The same faculty is open to him:
1° If the solution requested, proposed or agreed pursuant to Article L. 211-9 cannot be implemented within one month following the buyer's complaint;
2° Or if this solution cannot be done without major inconvenience for the latter given the nature of the property and the use it seeks.
However, the sale may not be cancelled if the lack of conformity is minor.
Article L211-11-11
The provisions of Articles L. 211-9 and L. 211-10 shall be applied at no cost to the buyer.
These same provisions do not prevent the award of damages.
Article L211-12-12
The action resulting from the lack of conformity shall be barred after two years from the date of delivery of the goods.
Article L211-13
The provisions of this section do not deprive the buyer of the right to bring an action resulting from redhibitory defects as provided for in Articles 1641 to 1649 of the Civil Code or any other action of a contractual or non-contractual nature recognised by law.
Article L211-14
The recourse action may be brought by the final seller against successive sellers or intermediaries and the producer of the tangible movable property, in accordance with the principles of the Civil Code.
Appendix 2: Provisions of the Civil Code concerning the guarantee against hidden defects

Article 1643

Article 1644

Article 1645
If the seller was aware of the defects of the thing, he is liable, in addition to the restitution of the price he received, for all damages towards the buyer.
Article 1646

Article 1646-1
The seller of a building to be built is bound, as from the acceptance of the work, by the obligations of the architects, contractors and other persons linked to the contracting authority by a contract of service contract themselves pursuant to Articles 1792, 1792-1, 1792-2 and 1792-3 of this Code.
These guarantees benefit the successive owners of the building.

Article 1647
If the thing that had defects perished as a result of its poor quality, the loss is for the seller, who will be liable to the buyer for the restitution of the price and other compensation explained in the two previous articles.
But the loss that occurs as a result of a fortuitous event will be for the buyer's account.
Article 1648
The action resulting from the fundamental defects must be brought by the purchaser within two years of the discovery of the defect.
