Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The label on the can of peanut-free nuts is an example of an express warranty because it explicitly states a promise or guarantee about the product, in this case, that it contains no peanuts. Express warranties are affirmations of fact or promises made by the seller to the buyer that relate to the goods and become part of the basis of the bargain.
