资料：When a consumer finds that an item she or he bought is faulty or in some other way does not live up to the manufacturer's claims， the first step is to present the warranty， or any other records which might help. at the store of purchase.

In general， the “higher up” his or her complaint， the faster he or she can expect it to be settled. In such a case， it is usually settled in the consumer's favor， assuming he or she has a just claim.

Consumers should complain in person whenever possible， but if they cannot get to the place of purchase， it is acceptable to phone or write the complaint in a letter.

If so， the consumer should do this， stating the complaint as politely and firmly as possible. If a polite complaint does not achieve the desired result， the consumer can go to a step further. She or he can threaten to take the seller to court or report the seller to a private or public organization responsible for protecting consumer's rights.
