Answer:
The retailer's responsibility for the warranty depends on the manufacturer's policies. If the manufacturer requires the retailer to register the warranty, the retailer may be liable for breach of contract or negligence if they fail to do so. For instance, one company's warranty policy states that products sold through unauthorized dealers or online auctions are not eligible for warranty services. To obtain warranty service, customers must provide an original or copy of the sales receipt and a completed warranty registration. Therefore, it's crucial to keep your sales slip or invoice, as missing components from packages purchased through unauthorized channels will not be replaced.
