I won't post again but thought you may be asking yourself: "what the devil is a MAJOR problem"...this is the Act's definition:
260 When a failure to comply with a guarantee is a major failure
A failure to comply with a guarantee referred to in
section 259(1)(b) that applies to a supply of goods is a major
failure if:
(a) the goods would not have been acquired by a reasonable
consumer fully acquainted with the nature and extent of the
failure; or
(b) the goods depart in one or more significant respects:
(i) if they were supplied by description—from that
description; or
(ii) if they were supplied by reference to a sample or
demonstration model—from that sample or
demonstration model; or
(c) the goods are substantially unfit for a purpose for which
goods of the same kind are commonly supplied and they
cannot, easily and within a reasonable time, be remedied to
make them fit for such a purpose; or
(d) the goods are unfit for a disclosed purpose that was made
known to:
(i) the supplier of the goods; or
(ii) a person by whom any prior negotiations or
arrangements in relation to the acquisition of the goods
were conducted or made;and they cannot, easily and within a reasonable time, be
remedied to make them fit for such a purpose; or
(e) the goods are not of acceptable quality because they are
unsafe.
Seems like you have a MAJOR problem at first blush...
