Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Under the UCC, an implied warranty of merchantability arises automatically in most contracts for the lease of goods, regardless of whether the lessee requests it or the lessor expresses it. However, the warranty does not apply to goods that are leased "as is" or with a clear indication that there is no warranty.
