EPIDEMIC DEFECT Sample Clauses

The Epidemic Defect clause defines and addresses situations where a significant number of products or components exhibit the same defect within a specified period or production batch. Typically, this clause sets out the criteria for what constitutes an epidemic defect, such as a threshold percentage of failures, and outlines the supplier’s obligations to remedy the issue, which may include repair, replacement, or recall of affected products. Its core practical function is to protect the buyer from widespread product failures by ensuring prompt and comprehensive corrective action, thereby minimizing operational disruptions and associated costs.

  • REMEDY OF DEFECTS (a) The BUILDER shall remedy, at its expense, any defects, against which the VESSEL is guaranteed under this Article, by making all necessary repairs or replacements at the SHIPYARD or elsewhere as provided for in (b) hereinbelow. In such case, the VESSEL shall be taken at the BUYER's cost and responsibility to the place selected, ready in all respects for such repairs or replacements and in any event, the BUILDER shall not be responsible for towage, dockage, wharfage, port charges and anything else incurred for the BUYER's getting and keeping the VESSEL ready for such repairing or replacing. (b) However, if it is impractical (which shall include, but not be limited to, an emergency) to bring the VESSEL to the SHIPYARD, the BUYER may cause the necessary repairs or replacements to be made elsewhere which is deemed by the BUYER with the consent of the BUILDER which shall not be unreasonably withheld, to be suitable for the purpose, provided that, in such event, the BUILDER may forward or supply replacement parts or materials under the terms described in (c) hereinbelow, unless forwarding or supplying thereof under the terms described in (c) hereinbelow would impair or delay the operation or working schedule of the VESSEL.

The BUILDER reserves the option to retrieve, at the BUILDER's cost, any of the replaced equipment/parts in case defects are remedied in accordance with the provisions in this Article. (d) Any dispute under this Article shall be referred to arbitration in accordance with the provisions of Article XIII hereof.
