(a) In a consumer lease contract, a lessor's express or implied warranty made to an immediate consumer lessee extends to any member of the family or household or an invitee to the household of the immediate consumer lessee or a transferee from the immediate consumer lessee who may reasonably be expected to use or be affected by the goods and who suffers damage other than injury to the person resulting from a breach of warranty. The lessor may not disclaim, modify or limit damages arising under this section.
(b) A lessor's warranty, whether express or implied, extends to any individual who may reasonably be expected to use, consume or be affected by the goods and who is injured in person by breach of the warranty. A lessor may not disclaim or limit the operation of this subsection.
(c) Nothing in this article diminishes the rights and remedies of any third party beneficiary or assignee under the law of contracts or of persons to which goods are transferred by operation of law or displaces any other law that extends a warranty to or for the benefit of any other person.
(d) The scope of any warranty extended under this section to other than the immediate lessee and the remedies for breach of such warranty may be limited by the enforceable terms of the contract between the lessor and the immediate lessee. To the extent not limited:
(1) The scope of the warranty is determined by sections 42a-2A-402, 42a-2A-403, 42a-2A-404 and 42a-2A-405; and
(2) The remedies for breach of warranty for other than the immediate lessee are determined by the terms of the contract between the lessor and the lessee and by this article.
(e) A right of action for breach of warranty under this section accrues under section 42a-2A-705.
