about a faulty product and me not being entitled to a replacment or refund unde ACL
Hi Josh, I can provide some general information about your rights under the Australian Consumer Law (ACL) regarding faulty products.
- You are entitled to a refund, replacement, or repair if a product is faulty.
- The remedy depends on whether the problem is major or minor.
- A major problem means the product is significantly different from the description, unfit for purpose, unsafe, or doesn’t do what the business said it would.
Can you provide more details about the product and the issue you're facing?

Under the Australian Consumer Law, the remedies for a faulty product might still apply even after several years if the product was expected to last longer. However, after *-5 years, it might be challenging to claim a remedy.
- Have you contacted the retailer or manufacturer about the issue?
- Did they provide any response or reason for denying a remedy?

Since you haven't contacted the retailer or manufacturer yet, I recommend reaching out to them first. Explain the situation and mention your rights under the Australian Consumer Law. If they still deny a remedy, you might consider contacting the NSW Fair Trading for further assistance.

Dear [Retailer/Manufacturer],
I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to inform you about an issue I am facing with a TV I purchased from your store approximately *-5 years ago. The TV has completely stopped working, and I believe it might be a faulty product.
Under the Australian Consumer Law, I am entitled to a remedy, such as a refund, replacement, or repair, even if it has been several years since the purchase, provided the product was expected to last longer. Given that this is an expensive TV, I expected it to function properly for more than *-5 years.
I kindly request you to address this issue promptly. Please let me know the next steps to resolve this matter.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Best regards,
Josh
