After 18 months, Peter Ward's TV broke down and Tesco refused to repair it. But Peter had read about a little known EU rule which says you can take goods back up to two years later and obtain a replacement, even if the guarantee has expired. In the end Tesco backed down.

In some countries, this may be more, and some manufacturers also choose to offer a longer warranty period."
