7 Warranty
7.1 The statutory provisions of §§ 433 to 435, 437 and 439 to 443 BGB apply to warranty claims of a consumer. In the case of a sale of new goods to a consumer, the 24-month limitation period of § 438 para. 1 no. 3 BGB applies. If used goods are sold to a consumer, this period shall be reduced to 12 months. This shall not apply if the delivery of defective goods also constitutes an intentional breach of duty. In addition, the claims for damages regulated in Section 8 below are excluded from this. § Section 479 BGB remains unaffected.
7.2 The following provisions 7.2.1. to 7.2.4. shall apply to sales to entrepreneurs.
7.2.1 Deliveries must be inspected by the customer immediately upon receipt or by the recipient designated by the customer. After unconditional acceptance of the goods by the customer or a person authorized by the customer, any subsequent complaint due to the external condition of the delivery is excluded. Other defects in the goods, insofar as they are recognizable, can only be notified within 8 working days of receipt, otherwise only within 8 working days of discovery. Notices of defects must be made in text form (§ 126 b BGB) or in writing.
7.2.2 Notwithstanding the customer's claims for damages under the conditions of clause 8, Autohaus Rauh GmbH shall initially provide a warranty for defects notified in good time at its own discretion by delivering faultless replacement goods or by repairing the delivered goods (subsequent performance). Autohaus Rauh GmbH is obliged to bear the expenses necessary for the purpose of subsequent performance, in particular transport, travel, labor and material costs, insofar as these have not increased due to the fact that the purchased item has been taken to a place other than the place of performance. The delivery of replacement goods shall take place exclusively in fulfillment of the warranty obligations for the original goods. Notwithstanding the customer's warranty rights in relation to the initial delivery, no warranty rights shall therefore arise for the replacement goods in the event of a defective replacement delivery and the warranty period shall not be restarted.
7.2.3 In the event of subsequent performance, the customer shall only be entitled to reduce the agreed purchase price or withdraw from the contract after two unsuccessful attempts.
7.2.4 In the case of a sale of new goods to entrepreneurs, the limitation period of § 438 para. 1 no. 3 BGB is reduced to 12 months. This shall not apply if the delivery of defective goods constitutes an intentional or grossly negligent breach of duty or if liability for damages resulting from injury to life, body or health due to the defective delivery is involved. In the case of delivery of used goods, claims by the customer due to defects in the purchased item are excluded, unless Autohaus Rauh GmbH has fraudulently concealed the defect or has assumed a guarantee for the quality of the item. The claims for damages regulated in the following clause 8. are not affected by this.
7.3 The provisions of a guarantee granted in a separate contractual agreement remain unaffected by this.
8 Liability
8.1 The liability of Autohaus Rauh GmbH and its vicarious agents is generally limited to damages that Autohaus Rauh GmbH and its vicarious agents have caused intentionally or through gross negligence. Autohaus Rauh GmbH shall only be liable for slight negligence in the event of injury to life, limb or health as well as the breach of obligations essential for the fulfillment of the contract.
This does not apply to liability for damages arising from contractual warranty for defects vis-à-vis consumers.
8.2 If Autohaus Rauh GmbH is liable for slightly negligent breaches of duty, the amount of liability is limited to the damages typical for contracts of the type in question, which were foreseeable at the time the contract was concluded or later when the breach of duty was committed; Autohaus Rauh GmbH is not liable for consequential damages in these cases. This shall not apply in the event of injury to life, limb or health.
8.3 If the customer is an entrepreneur, liability for negligence is also excluded.
8.4 Claims for damages, which by law do not require fault, remain unaffected by the above provisions in sections 8.1. and 8.2.
9 Payment
9.1 Insofar as the delivery is not made cash on delivery, payments with discharging effect can only be made directly to Autohaus Rauh GmbH or to a bank or postal giro account specified by Autohaus Rauh GmbH.
9.2 Invoices from Autohaus Rauh GmbH are payable without deduction within 10 calendar days of the invoice date.
9.3 Autohaus Rauh GmbH expressly reserves the right to refuse credit cards, checks or bills of exchange. Acceptance is always only on account of payment. Discount and bill charges shall be borne by the customer and are due immediately.
9.4 The customer is only entitled to offset against the claims of Autohaus Rauh GmbH if the counterclaim is undisputed or has been legally established.
10. right of return for consumers
10.1 All items ordered by a consumer can be returned without giving reasons within 14 days by returning the goods if the contract was concluded using exclusively means of distance communication (in particular letters, catalogs, telephone calls, faxes, e-mails and radio, tele and media services). Notwithstanding the above, the return period shall be one month if the consumer was not provided with a return instruction in text form (letter, fax, e-mail, etc.) at the latest upon conclusion of the contract or immediately after conclusion of the contract. In the case of goods that cannot be sent by parcel post (e.g. bulky goods), the customer can return the goods by sending a request for return in text form.
If you make use of this option, we will send you a confirmation of receipt of such a withdrawal without delay (e.g. by e-mail).
10.2 The return period begins after transmission of this instruction in text form (e.g. as a letter, fax, e-mail), but not before receipt of the goods by the recipient (in the case of recurring deliveries of similar goods not before receipt of the first partial delivery) and also not before fulfillment of our information obligations pursuant to Article 246 § 2 in conjunction with § 1 para. 1 and 2 EGBGB and also not before fulfillment of our obligations pursuant to § 312 g para. 1 sentence 1 BGB in conjunction with Art. 24 § 3 EGBGB.
Timely dispatch of the goods or the request for return shall be sufficient to comply with the deadline. In any case, the return shipment shall be at the expense and risk of Autohaus Rauh GmbH. Autohaus Rauh GmbH requests a sufficiently stamped package and will subsequently reimburse the customer for the return costs. The return shipment or the return request must be sent to
Autohaus Rauh GmbH
Fuggerstrasse 1, D-87463 Dietmannsried
E-Mail: Rudolf.Rauh@Auto-Rauh.de
In the event of a return request, the goods will be collected from the customer. Otherwise, the customer must use secure - if possible original - transport packaging for the return shipment.
10.3 In the event of an effective return or an effective request to take back the goods, the services received by both parties must be returned and any benefits derived must be surrendered. In the event of deterioration of the item and for use (e.g. benefits of use) that cannot be returned or can only be returned in part or only in a deteriorated condition, the customer must pay compensation for the value. However, no compensation is to be paid for any deterioration caused by the intended use of the item. Compensation for use shall only be paid if the goods have been used in a way that goes beyond testing the properties and functionality. Testing the properties and functionality" means testing and trying out the respective goods, as is possible and customary in a retail store, for example.
Obligations to refund payments must be fulfilled within 30 days. The period begins for the customer with the dispatch of the goods or the return request, for Autohaus Rauh GmbH with the receipt.
10.4 If the customer has financed the contract through a loan and the customer makes use of his right of return, he is also no longer bound to the loan amount if both contracts form an economic unit. This is to be assumed in particular if Autohaus Rauh GmbH is also the lender or if the lender makes use of the cooperation of Autohaus Rauh GmbH with regard to the financing. If Autohaus Rauh GmbH has already received the loan when the repayment becomes effective, the customer may not only hold Autohaus Rauh GmbH liable for the reversal, but also the lender.
10.5 In accordance with Section 6 (1) and (2) of the Ordinance on the Avoidance and Recycling of Packaging Waste, Autohaus Rauh GmbH shall take back sales packaging for recycling or disposal to protect the environment. For this purpose, the customer can call Autohaus Rauh GmbH on 08374-5714 during business hours to find out where the packaging material can be disposed of free of charge within a reasonable distance from his place of residence or place of business.
