(1)  In rejecting goods, a lessee‘s failure to state a particular defect that is ascertainable by reasonable inspection precludes the lessee from relying on the defect to justify rejection or to establish default:

(a)  if, stated seasonably, the lessor or the supplier could have cured it as provided in Section 70A-2a-513; or

(b)  between merchants if the lessor or the supplier after rejection has made a request in writing for a full and final written statement of all defects on which the lessee proposes to rely.
