Under the UCC, an implied warranty of merchantability arises automatically in sales contracts if the seller is a merchant who deals in goods of the kind sold. This warranty ensures that the goods sold are fit for their ordinary purpose and comply with the standards of the trade. The buyer does not need to ask for it, and the seller cannot disclaim it.
