My understanding is the retailer would be responsible for the first year, unless they sold you a longer warranty, but typically retailer would be year 1 and manufacturer for anything longer. Sometimes extended warranty is through a third party (ie "Gamecare" on consoles sold at GAME used to go through alianze). However, after 6 months it could be left down to you to prove the fault was down to manufacturer and not your own miss-use. I expect a retailer would use this more if the manufacturer was not around anymore to credit the store for the faulty frame.
I'm no legal expert though, so happy to stand corrected.
