Case History
Case Summary: Maruti Udyog Ltd v. Susheel Kumar Gabgotra (C.A. No. 003734/2000) The Supreme Court partially allowed Maruti's appeal, rejecting the High Court's order for full vehicle replacement. The Court held that the warranty clause explicitly limited Maruti's obligation to repairing or replacing defective parts, not the entire car. However, recognizing the complainant's genuine grievances from the faulty clutch assembly and Maruti's wrongful advice to travel to Karnal, the Court directed Maruti to replace the clutch assembly free of cost and pay Rs. 50,000 as consolidated compensation for travel costs, inconvenience, and litigation expenses.
