Hidden defects in vehicles and construction

Hidden defects are defects or problems that exist in an asset (such as a vehicle or property) at the time of purchase, but are not visible or easily identifiable during an ordinary inspection. Here I explain how these concepts are applied both in vehicles and in constructions:

Hidden defects in vehicles

In the context of vehicles, hidden defects can refer to mechanical, structural, or electrical problems that are not apparent on a superficial inspection, but may manifest themselves later.
Common examples of hidden vices in vehicles can include problems with the engine, transmission, brake system, suspension, steering, electronics, and other critical components that can affect the safe and reliable operation of the vehicle.
If a buyer discovers a hidden defect in a vehicle after purchase, they may be entitled to claim compensation or redress from the seller, depending on the consumer protection laws and regulations in their jurisdiction.

Hidden defects in constructions

In the construction arena, hidden defects can refer to defects in the structure, design, materials, workmanship, or other aspects of a property that are not visible or easily detectable to the naked eye.
Examples of hidden defects in buildings can include foundation problems, cracks in the walls, water leaks, thermal or acoustic insulation problems, defects in the electrical or plumbing installation, among others.
In many countries, there are laws and regulations that protect property buyers against hidden vices, and that set out the rights and responsibilities of sellers and builders in the event that defects are discovered after purchase.
