⚖️ Seller Warranty & Marketplace Dispute Conciliation
Warranty should be claimed if, after correct installation and within the warranty period, the latch malfunctions due to a manufacturing defect, such as a spring losing strength without apparent reason, or if essential components show excessive corrosion or break without impact, indicating a manufacturing defect in material or assembly. Refer to the seller's warranty and marketplace return policy.
