Insurance contract clause tying compensation to specific repair method deemed consumer rights violation under Art. 185 KC.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe court ruled that an insurance contract clause requiring a specific repair method for compensation violates consumer rights under Article 185 of the Civil Code. The plaintiff argued this conditionality unfairly restricted their choice of repair, while the insurer contended the clause was necessary for cost control. The court found the clause disproportionate and unenforceable as it unduly limited the consumer's rights.
