Warranty Plan Term and Servicing Requirements

Thank you for purchasing Your Inchcape Protected quality Vehicle. The conditions of the contract commence on the Delivery Date and the benefits commence on the Benefits Commencement Date. Subject to your compliance with the conditions contained in the warranty plan booklet, the term of the Contract shall continue until the earlier to occur of the date that it is 3 years from the Benefits Commencement Date or the Vehicle travelling in excess of the Expiry Kilometres, unless otherwise determined in accordance with the terms of the Contract.

To avoid any misunderstanding, please read this carefully.

An important condition of the Warranty Plan, is that the Vehicle must be serviced by an Inchcape Protected Dealer, during both the Manufacturer's Warranty term (in accordance with the manufacturer's requirements) and also the Inchcape Protected Warranty term until both periods expire. After the expiry of the Manufacturer's Warranty period and upon commencement of the Inchcape Protected Warranty period, you can enjoy the Inchcape Protected six month or 10,000 km (whichever occurs first) fixed price service plan. It is the responsibility of the Customer to ensure these services are performed and that the service details are recorded correctly on Your Warranty Plan documents. Failure to do so will void the Warranty Plan without further notice. It is the responsibility of the Customer to check coolant and oil levels on a regular basis. The Company will not be responsible for failure due to lack of appropriate oil or coolant.

In simple terms, the Company will repair or replace covered components, to the limits of the warranty plan, if you have the vehicle serviced by an Inchcape Protected dealer.

Please note that whilst the Inchcape Protected fixed price service plan is intended to cover part of your Vehicle's regular servicing needs during its lifetime, it is NOT a substitute for the full Manufacturer's service requirements for your Vehicle. In order to meet the Manufacturer's service requirements your Vehicle will require additional periodical maintenance on specific items from time to time. These will be at additional cost to you. For example, automatic transmission servicing, timing belt replacement, spark plugs, brake fluid or engine coolant replacement will be required at the manufacturer's recommended intervals.
