passenger motor vehicle conform to the applicable express warranties, if:

dealer, within the express warranty term or within one year of the date of original 
delivery of the passenger motor vehicle to a consumer, whichever is the earlier 
date.
b. The passenger motor vehicle is out of service for repair for a cumulative total of at 
least thirty business days during the warranty term or in a year, whichever is less.
2. The term of an express warranty, the one -year period and the thirty -day period, are 
extended by any period during which repair services are not available to the consumer 
because of war, invasion, strike, fire, flood, or other natural disaster.

3. The presumption does not apply against a manufacturer unless the manufacturer has 
received prior direct notification from or on behalf of the consumer and an opportunity 
to cure the alleged defect.
