In Orel motor show ordered to pay the buyer “Vesta” more than 2.3 million rubles

The factory district court of Orel partially satisfied the claim of a local resident to KAN AVTO LLC on the protection of consumer rights.

As follows from the materials of the case, the man bought a domestic passenger car for 1,799,490.69 rubles. During the warranty period, he repeatedly appealed to the service: problems with the speaker and electric power steering, leakage of the roof, fogging of lights, malfunction of the window lift, noise under the hood and in the gearbox. The purchased car last year in total more than 30 days was under repair. In addition, significant shortcomings were found that have not been eliminated. A resident of Orel sent a claim to LLC "KAN AVTO" with a demand for the return of money, penalty, as well as moral damage. However, he received no response and went to court.

The representative of the manufacturer in court did not recognize the claims. He pointed out that the buyer had abused his right because he had not provided the car for inspection and had also evaded the provision of his details for which his claims could be satisfied. The car dealership was similarly protected.

At the same time, the autotechnical examination revealed in the car production defects of the continuously variable transmission and depressurization of the taillights. The cost of eliminating the shortcomings would be 432,300 rubles, and the market value of the car at the time of the study - 1,625,600 rubles.

The court found that there was a significant defect in the passenger car, which manifested itself repeatedly and again. Eliminating it will require disproportionate costs in relation to the average market value of the car. As a result, the contract of sale was terminated. LLC KAN AVTO was obliged to pay the buyer of the vehicle the cost of the car, a penalty, compensation for moral damage, a fine for dissatisfaction with the requirements of the consumer voluntarily, the cost of examination and state duty. The total amount exceeded 2.3 million rubles.

The parties can still appeal the decision. They have a month to do that.
