HRS §490:2A-216

Who is protected by a warranty on leased goods?

This section says that a warranty on leased goods also protects anyone who is reasonably expected to use, consume, or be affected by the goods and is hurt by a breach. You cannot waive this protection for personal injury, but other warranty limits that apply to the lessee also apply to these other people.

The statute, as written — Third-party beneficiaries of express and implied warranties

A warranty to or for the benefit of a lessee under this article, whether express or implied, extends to any person who may reasonably be expected to use, consume, or be affected by the goods and who is injured by breach of the warranty. The operation of this section may not be excluded, modified, or limited with respect to injury to the person of an individual to whom the warranty extends, but an exclusion, modification, or limitation of the warranty, including any with respect to rights and remedies, effective against the lessee is also effective against the beneficiary designated under this section.
