BECKLEY — A couple is suing a vehicle manufacturer, citing alleged breach of implied warranty.

Kenneth Canady and Linda Canady filed a complaint in Raleigh Circuit Court against Ford Motor Company for alleged violation of the Magnuson–Moss Warranty Act.

According to the complaint, on Nov. 24, 2015, the Canadys purchased a new 2016 Ford Fiesta from an authorized retail dealer for $20,817.19. 

However, the plaintiffs claim, the vehicle experienced repeated nonconformities from the issued warranty that substantially impaired the use and market value of the motor vehicle even after a reasonable number of repair attempts. 

As a result, the plaintiffs were caused damage by the loss of use of the vehicle, annoyance, inconvenience and incurred expenses for replacement transportation. 

The plaintiffs holds Ford Motor Company responsible because it allegedly failed to conform the subject motor vehicle to the warranties after a reasonable number of attempts to do so.

The plaintiffs request a trial by jury and seek judgment for damages, attorney fee incurred, and such other and further relief as the Court shall deem appropriate. They are represented by Anthony M. Salvatore of Hewitt & Salvatore, PLLC in Fayetteville.
