Question

Henry took his Porsche to the shop for repairs, but it was not ready on Friday afternoon as had been agreed to. Heny was then unable to rent the carto his sister on Saturday for $400 to use in her wedding. Henry paid $60 to rent a car on Sunday for a trip to the mountains. The car repair shop knew about neither of Henry's planned uses of the car that weekend which is true?

a. Henry cann collect for neither amount because the car reair shop was unaware of them.

b. Henry can collect for both amounts because the shop was the cause of his losses.

c. Henry can collect for the car rental, but not for the money his sister would have paid.

d. Henry can collect for both amounts and will likely recover punitive damages as well.

e. Henry can collect nothing because his greeiness with his sister is against public policy.

Explanation / Answer

As per my understanding, Henry can not collect the rents as the car repair shop has not entered into any such obligation of payments in case it failed to repair within the prescribed time and or by the promised time and day. The nature/ type of repairs may result in time and cost overruns. Therefore the best choice is ( a ).
