Does a washing machine's noise not prove that it is faulty?
British Columbia, Canada
The following excerpt is from Butovsky v. Moore, 2021 BCCRT 580 (CanLII):
15. For the above reasons, I find that the washing machine’s noise does not prove that it was faulty. Rather, I find that expert evidence is needed because the proper functioning of the washing machine is outside of the knowledge or expertise of an ordinary person (see Bergen v. Guliker, 2015 BCCA 283 at paragraph 119).
