The purchaser must submit a signed copy of the technician's recommendation to the contractor for replacement of defective parts.

Dear Mr. Kensington

My company purchased the industrial puncher (Renz Super 700) from your company in February. However, we faced some problems while using the machine over the past 6 months. We pointed this out to your technician during the regular maintenance check on July 15, and during the inspection he found some parts that needed to be replaced. He said that he would forward his service report with a repair recommendation to the relevant department so that the defective parts could be replaced. However, we have not heard from him since then.

We understand that there are no more free maintenance checks remaining for this year, but we would like to have our machine repaired nonetheless. Please let us know when you think you will be able to send the technician once again and supply the replaced parts for our machine.

 

Sincerely,

Mira kang

Tay Young Manufacturing Co.
