Etchen v. Holiday Rambler Corp.

STREIT, Judge.

A buyer seeks warranty damages from a conflagration that ravaged his motor home during the first year of ownership. After a bench trial, the trial court found the buyer failed to establish seller and manufacturer had breached express warranties and he failed to prove his other tort claims. The court did not have substantial evidence to support its conclusion the plaintiff did not prove breach of express warranty. After reviewing the evidence presented to the trial court, we find the plaintiff proved his breach of warranty claims and reverse.
