(2) Except in the case of a finance lease that is not aconsumer lease, a lessee may revoke acceptance of a lot orcommercial unit if the lessor defaults under the lease contractand the default substantially impairs the value of that lot orcommercial unit to the lessee.

(3) If the lease agreement so provides, the lessee mayrevoke acceptance of a lot or commercial unit because of otherdefaults by the lessor.
