Court allows termination of motorhome rental due to power failure

The Munich court ruled that a motorhome renter can terminate the contract without notice and demand a refund if the vehicle's electrical system fails. The incident occurred during a trip through Scandinavia when the 12-volt outlets stopped working, preventing the use of medical equipment. The court found that the defect significantly impairs the intended use of the motorhome and ordered the landlord to return most of the 3,612 euros.
