Zamora v. CVS Pharmacy CA2/5
A consumer purchased a product from a national retail pharmacy that did not make the text of the manufacturer’s written warranty available for review before purchase as required under the federal Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act (Magnuson-Moss) (15 U.S.C. § 2301 et seq.). The consumer brought an action against the pharmacy seeking injunctive relief under the Unfair Competition Law (UCL) (Bus. & Prof. Code, § 17200 et seq.) based on the violation of federal warranty law. In summary judgment proceedings, the consumer declared that she did not know she had a right to review the warranty before making her purchase, she would have reviewed the warranty if the seller had made it available as required by federal law, and she would not have purchased the product after she learned the warranty was limited to replacement parts.
