All, As I read this document, I don't come up with the concept of a 3 year warrantee on the product. What I see is that the plaintiff (the person injured by the product) has 3 years from the time they figure out whose product it was that injured them to make their claim for damages. This isn't a 3 year warrantee that the product works, or you will fix it. This is a 3 year statute of limitations (as we would say in the US) during which time the person injured by the product must make a claim for compensation.
A slightly different situation than - I bought my stereo 2 years ago and it's broken. Please fix it. Or am I missing something here?
