Del. P.J.I. Civ. § 9.12
Express Warranty - Generally
EXPRESS WARRANTY
[Plaintiff’s name] has alleged that [defendant’s name] made an express
warranty that [his/her/its] product was [identify promise, description, etc.]. An
express warranty is created in one of three ways:
(1) if [defendant’s name] made a promise or factual representation about
the product to [buyer’s name] and that promise or representation became a basis of
the parties’ bargain;
(2) if [defendant’s name] described the product in a certain manner to
[buyer’s name], and that description became a basis of the parties’ bargain; or
(3) if [defendant’s name] offered a sample or model of the product to
[buyer’s name], and that sample or model became a basis of the parties’ bargain.
No formal words are necessary to create a warranty. Nor does [defendant’s
name] have to intend to make a warranty.
If you find that any one of these three circumstances existed in this case, then
you must find that [defendant’s name] warranted that the product would conform to
the promise, description, or model.
