Terms and Conditions — General Contract Terms
These are the Terms and Conditions of Autoshow Aathal AG:
Manufacturer’s Warranty
If the purchased vehicle has a manufacturer’s warranty at the time of purchase, the customer may claim this warranty from the manufacturer. The manufacturer’s warranty is subject to the manufacturer’s terms. All warranty claims for defects and legal warranty claims against AAA are waived. Except for damage caused intentionally or through gross negligence, any liability of AAA, including liability for auxiliary persons (Art. 101 OR), is excluded. The customer is advised that carrying out service work according to the service book is a prerequisite for claiming the manufacturer’s warranty.
General
- Additional assurances or agreements supplementing this contract are only valid if confirmed in writing by AAA.
- The purchased vehicle remains the property of AAA until the purchase price has been paid in full. Benefits and risks transfer to the customer upon conclusion of the purchase contract.
- The customer is obligated to continue maintaining and caring for the vehicle given in payment until taking delivery of the purchased vehicle. Otherwise, AAA is entitled to demand a higher residual purchase price than agreed.
- Compliance with official regulations, such as obtaining type approval or carrying out a cantonal motor vehicle inspection for Swiss registration, may lead to delivery delays beyond AAA’s control. If the delivery date agreed on page 1 of the contract cannot be met, AAA will be in default at the earliest after eight weeks have elapsed. In this case, the customer may set AAA a grace period of at least four weeks. Any liability of AAA for default is excluded.
- In the event of any defects in the vehicle purchased by the customer, price reduction and rescission are excluded. Offsetting counterclaims against the purchase price is excluded.
- If the purchased vehicle is equipped with a navigation device, a corresponding data carrier is not part of the equipment. Any spare keys available will be supplied.
- Directly imported vehicles may differ from vehicles imported by the general importer in terms of equipment, engine, and manufacturer’s warranty.
- By agreeing to TCS membership, a warranty extension, or an insurance offer, the buyer consents to the forwarding of the necessary data to the respective service providers. Insofar as the processing or verification of these third-party services requires it, the buyer agrees to AAA receiving the contract documents prepared by these service providers. AAA does not provide substantive advice on the products of these service providers and excludes any liability in this regard.
- In the event of non-performance or improper performance of this contract by the buyer, a contractual penalty of 20% of the purchase price for the purchased vehicle is agreed. However, AAA may also demand performance of the contract or claim damages exceeding the contractual penalty. If the trade-in vehicle to be transferred according to the purchase contract is not handed over to AAA upon delivery of the purchased vehicle, a contractual penalty of CHF 2,000 is owed. In this case as well, AAA remains entitled to demand proper performance of the contract or to claim damages exceeding the contractual penalty.
- Place of performance for all obligations under this contract is Zürichstrasse 47, 8607 Aathal. Place of jurisdiction is 8340 Hinwil/ZH.
