Facts
of the Case
AB
bought a washing machine from M/s Bad Machines on 17th
December 2000 for a sum of Rs. 20,000/- .The machine was a fully
automatic one with a timer. The washing machine had a warranty for
three years. Around March the machine developed some defects and
started giving trouble. The spinner stopped rotating properly and
the timer stopped working as a result of these faults the clothes
were getting stuck in the spinner and were not being washed properly.
AB informed Bad Machines about the problems he was facing with the
washing machine and Bad Machines assured AB that it would look into
the matter. However nobody from Bad Machines came. On 12.4.2001
AB sent a written complain by registered post to Bad Machines and
they informed him that heir engineer would be coming the next day.
However three months have passed since then but no engineer has
come from Bad Machines. AB suffered immense hardship and mental
torture due to the negligent and irresponsible behavior of Bad Machines.
AB had to employ a dhobi at monthly salary of RS 500 and had to
even wash the clothes himself at times. He is now left with no option
but to approach the Consumer Forum.
