French term or phrase: droit de garantie
I'm trying to pin down the best way of phrasing this in English in the following extract from a document relating to Purchase Conditions issued by XXX. The phrase "right of guarantee" doesn't strike me as being right and the translations provided by the gdt do not seem appropriate, so any ideas would be appreciated:

"Le fournisseur s'engage, conformément au choix de XXX, à réparer à ses propres frais tous les vices, manquements et autres non-conformités constatés sur les marchandises, ou à remplacer ces marchandises par d'autres de valeur au moins égale, de même qu'à indemniser XXX de tous les dommages en découlant, et ce, dans les 15 jours maximum à dater de la communication de ces problèmes au fournisseur.

XXX disposera en outre dans tous les cas d'un droit de garantie par le fournisseur sur toute indemnisation réclamée par un tiers."
