Language of the case: German
Appellant on a point of law: KFZ Kolak e.U.
Respondent on a point of law: GF
Must Article 13(4)(c) of Directive (EU) 2019/771 (<span class="oj-super oj-note-tag">1</span>) be interpreted as meaning that a defect which affects the safety of the goods (in the present case, loss of oil from a motor vehicle which entails the risk of engine damage), even in the absence of other conditions, such as particularly egregious conduct on the part of the seller (deceit, for example), is of such a serious nature as to justify an immediate price reduction or cancellation of the sales contract?
If the answer to the first question is in the affirmative:
Does the same apply where the defect could be remedied at relatively low financial cost?
