47-2A216. Third-party beneficiaries of
express and implied warranties
A warranty to or for the benefit of a lessee under this chapter, whether express or
implied, extends to any natural person who is in the family or household of the lessee or
who is a guest in the lessee's home if it is reasonable to expect that such person may
use, consume or be affected by the goods and who is injured in person by breach of the
warranty. This section does not displace principles of law and equity that extend a
warranty to or for the benefit of a lessee to other persons. The operation of this
section may not be excluded, modified or limited, but an exclusion, modification or
limitation of the warranty, including any with respect to rights and remedies, effective
against the lessee is also effective against any beneficiary designated under this
section.
