" 4 ° The non-conformity of the property persists despite the unsuccessful attempt to bring the seller into conformity.

" The consumer is also entitled to a reduction in the price of the property or to the resolution of the contract where the lack of conformity is so serious that it justifies the reduction of the price or the resolution of the contract immediately. The consumer is not required to request the repair or replacement of the property in advance.

" The consumer is not entitled to the resolution of the sale if the lack of conformity is minor.

" Any period of detention of the property for the purpose of its repair or replacement suspends the guarantee that remains to be paid until the delivery of the restored property.

" The seller who obstructs bad faith in the implementation of the legal guarantee of conformity is liable to a civil fine of up to EUR 300 000, which may be increased to 10 % of the average annual turnover (Article L. 241-5 of the Consumer Code).

" The consumer also benefits from the legal guarantee of hidden defects in application of articles 1641 to 1649 of the Civil Code, for a period of two years from the discovery of the defect.
