(1)A lessee may revoke acceptance of a lot or commercial unit whose nonconformity substantially impairs its value to the lessee if the lessee has accepted it: -
(a)except in the case of a finance lease , on the reasonable assumption that its nonconformity would be cured and it has not been seasonably cured; or -
(b)without discovery of the nonconformity if the lessee's acceptance was reasonably induced either by the lessor's assurances or, except in the case of a finance lease , by the difficulty of discovery before acceptance.
(2)Except in the case of a finance lease that is not a consumer lease , a lessee may revoke acceptance of a lot or commercial unit if the lessor defaults under the lease contract and the default substantially impairs the value of that lot or commercial unit to the lessee.
(3)If the lease agreement so provides, the lessee may revoke acceptance of a lot or commercial unit because of other defaults by the lessor .
(4)Revocation of acceptance must occur within a reasonable time after the lessee discovers or should have discovered the ground for it and before any substantial change in condition of the goods which is not caused by the nonconformity. Revocation is not effective until the lessee notifies the lessor of the present value as of the same date of the total rent for the then remaining lease term of the original lease agreement , and
(ii)any incidental or consequential damages, less expenses saved in consequence of the lessor's default.
(3)If a lessee's cover is by lease agreement that for any reason does not qualify for treatment under subsection (2), or is by purchase or otherwise, the lessee may recover from the lessor as if the lessee had elected not to cover and Section 2A-519 governs.
