CUSTOMERS’ RIGHT OF CHOICE
In case of realising that the product is defective, the consumers can
use their right stated in the Article 11 of the Law on Protection of the
Consumer No 6502 as below;
a- Withdrawal of contract,
b- Claiming discount over sale price,
c- Claiming repair free of charge,
d- Claiming another non-defective copy of the same product.
If the consumer prefers the free repair amongst these rights, then the
seller is liable to overhaul the product without asking any other price
under the name of anything such as labour, price for the replaced part
or anything else. The consumer can use the right of free repair against

consumer. If this demand is not fullled, then the seller, the manufacturer
and the importer shall severally be held responsible.
