VEHICLE WARRANTIES [G2389908]

NEW VEHICLE LIMITED WARRANTY

All vehicles originally specified and manufactured by Jaguar Land Rover Limited for, and registered in, the United States, Puerto Rico, Guam, and Canada.

Warranty limitations

This New Vehicle Limited Warranty is the only express warranty applicable to your vehicle. Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) neither assumes, nor authorizes anyone to assume for them, any other obligation or liability in connection with this warranty.

Limitation of remedies

Under the warranty, it is agreed that the sole exclusive remedy against JLR, and their retailer/authorized repairers shall be for the repair or replacement of defective parts as provided herein. The sole purpose of this exclusive remedy shall be to provide for the free repair and replacement of defective parts in the manner prescribed in this warranty. This exclusive remedy shall not be deemed to have failed its essential purpose so long as JLR, through their retailer/authorized repairers, are willing and able to repair or replace defective parts in the prescribed manner.

IMPLIED WARRANTIES - CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES

UNDER THE LAW, THE OWNER MAY BE ENTITLED TO THE BENEFIT OF CERTAIN IMPLIED WARRANTIES:

  1. AN IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY (THAT YOUR CAR IS REASONABLY FIT FOR THE GENERAL PURPOSE FOR WHICH IT WAS SOLD) OR,
  2. AN IMPLIED WARRANTY OF FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. (THAT YOUR CAR IS SUITABLE FOR YOUR SPECIAL PURPOSES).

THESE IMPLIED WARRANTIES ARE LIMITED, TO THE EXTENT ALLOWED BY LAW, TO THE TIME PERIOD COVERED BY THE WRITTEN WARRANTIES, OR TO THE APPLICABLE TIME PERIOD PROVIDED BY STATE LAW (USA ONLY) OR PROVINCIAL LAW (CANADA ONLY), WHICHEVER PERIOD IS SHORTER.

JLR DOES NOT ACCEPT RESPONSIBILITY UNDER ANY OF THE WARRANTIES IN THE PASSPORT TO SERVICE FOR ANY CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGE OR COMMERCIAL LOSS TO THE OWNER, OR ANY INCIDENTAL EXPENSES, LOSS OF TIME, OR INCONVENIENCE.

SOME STATES (USA ONLY) OR PROVINCES (CANADA ONLY) DO NOT PERMIT A LIMITATION ON HOW LONG AN IMPLIED WARRANTY WILL LAST, OR ON THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO THE OWNER. THIS WARRANTY GIVES OWNERS SPECIFIC LEGAL RIGHTS, AND THEY MAY ALSO HAVE OTHER RIGHTS THAT VARY FROM STATE TO STATE (USA ONLY), OR PROVINCE TO PROVINCE (CANADA ONLY).

Canada only: The information regarding limitations on incidental and consequential damages under the New Vehicle Limited Warranty also applies to the Emission Control System warranties.

Warranty statement

JLR warrants that during the warranty period, if a Land Rover vehicle is properly operated and maintained, repairs required to correct defects in factory-supplied materials or factory workmanship will be performed without charge upon presentment for service at a Land Rover retailer/authorized repairer; any component covered by this warranty found to be defective in materials or workmanship will be repaired, or replaced, without charge with a new or re-manufactured part distributed by JLR at its sole option.

The warranty period for the vehicle begins on the date of the first retail sale, or on the date of entry into demonstrator or company service, whichever occurs first. The basic warranty period is for four (4) years or until the vehicle has been driven 50,000 miles (80, 000 kilometres), whichever occurs first.

Canada only: Jaguar Land Rover Canada (JLRC) and your Land Rover retailer/authorized repairer are not responsible for any time that you lose, for any inconvenience you might be caused, for the loss of transportation, or for any other incidental or consequential damages you may have.

Warranty coverage

The New Vehicle Limited Warranty covers any factory-supplied component of the Land Rover vehicle that is defective during the basic warranty period, with the exception of tires and items such as:

  1. Lubricants
  2. Normal maintenance items
  3. Regularly scheduled maintenance, parts and labor
  4. Wear parts, except as listed below

The warranty includes any part scheduled for routine replacement during the warranty period if it is defective. If a part fails at the same time it is due for replacement it is not covered by the warranty.

  5. Normal noises or vibration. Your vehicle is a mechanical device, and all mechanical devices make some sort of noise and/or vibration. These noises and vibrations can differ from vehicle to vehicle, and JLR recognizes those noises as normal and characteristic of the product. Normal noise and/or vibration, as well as deterioration caused by normal wear and tear, each as determined by JLR or its representative, are not covered by our New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
Extra warranty adjustment

Sometimes JLR may offer a special adjustment program to pay all or part of the cost of certain repairs beyond the terms of the warranty. Check with your Land Rover retailer/authorized repairer, or contact the Jaguar Land Rover Customer Relationship Center to determine whether any adjustment program is applicable to your vehicle. See CUSTOMER ASSISTANCE.

Please have available the following information:

  1. The model and the model year of your Land Rover vehicle
  2. The 17-digit Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) – located on a plate at the bottom left corner of the windshield; also shown on your vehicle’s registration and insurance cards
NOTE:

JLR reserve the right to make modifications in vehicles manufactured and/or sold by them at any time without incurring any obligation to make the same or similar modifications in vehicles previously manufactured and/or sold by them.

CORROSION PROTECTION LIMITED WARRANTY

Applicability: Vehicles originally specified and manufactured by Jaguar Land Rover Limited for, and registered in, the United States, Puerto Rico, and Canada.

Warranty statement

JLR warrants that if any corrosion perforation occurs on the body of a Land Rover vehicle within six (6) years, unlimited mileage/distance, from the date of first retail sale or the date of entry into demonstrator or company service, whichever occurs first, the panels affected by corrosion perforation will be repaired or replaced at a Land Rover retailer/authorized repairer at no charge to the owner.

Warranty coverage

This warranty applies only to corrosion perforation of painted body panels or the body shell. Corrosion perforation means the corroding-through of the vehicle body from the inside to the outside.

Any part or component bolted or attached to the body, such as the suspension or exhaust systems, is not covered by the warranty because it is not part of the ‘body’. These components are covered by the New Vehicle Limited Warranty.

Sheet metal damage repairs

Any automotive body shop that is repairing sheet metal damage should be instructed to apply proper anti-corrosive materials to bring those repaired areas into conformity with the original protection provided by the manufacturer. Damage caused by a failure to do so could void the Corrosion Warranty on any panels affected by the damage.

Aftermarket corrosion-proofing

Land Rover vehicles are protected internally with a wax-injection process. The use of aftermarket applications that contain solvents could compromise this factory coating. Claims for future corrosion perforation repairs could be denied because the factory coating had been rendered ineffectual.

Aluminum repairs

Land Rover vehicles employ full aluminum body panels and monocoque framework. All collision repairs must be performed by an authorized Jaguar Land Rover Aluminum Repair Center for the Corrosion Warranty to be applicable. Contact your local Land Rover retailer/authorized repairer for details, or to contact the Jaguar Land Rover Customer Relationship Center, dial:

  1. USA: 1-800-637-6837.
  2. Canada: 1-800-461-2325.

Canada only: All collision repairs must be performed by an authorized Jaguar Land Rover Aluminum Repair Center for the Corrosion Warranty to be applicable.
