A manufacturer might nevertheless choose to honour the warranty. Unless of course the goods were parallel imported without their consent...

Depends on the item, manufacturer, terms, etc. In most stuff I've bought, it's the manufacturer who provides the warranty.

Indeed, but those warranties will say "does not affect your legal rights". Those legal rights take you back to the retailer.

Quite often the manufacturer's warranty is better than your legal rights so you go with the manufacturer but that does not remove the retailer's responsibilities.

Sounds like your average fly-by-night double glazing company to me... Have you thought about your retailer in the States losing (by breaching) their contract with the manufacturer? Are we talking about cars?

Under _UK_ law the retailer is responsible for the warrenty.
