WARRANTY
Could you please elaborate on the warranty duration and coverage?
When you purchase a new PEUGEOT vehicle, you will receive a total of 5 years of warranty. This 5-year warranty or 150,000km (whichever comes first) consists of 3 years manufacturer warranty and an additional 2 years extended warranty which mirrors the coverage of the manufacturer warranty. In addition, customers can opt for an additional 2 years extended warranty, making it a total of 7 years or 200,000km, for a nominal fee depending on model purchased. Please contact your authorised dealer to find out the more details.
What is covered under both manufacturer and extended warranty is coverage for all major parts such as the engine, transmission, electrical and safety systems, and many more. To ensure your warranty is valid, customers will need to maintain their vehicle at authorized service centers.
Your new vehicle is covered by each of the PEUGEOT contractual warranties from the warranty start date entered in the "warranties certificate" in the maintenance record, for the period indicated (and mileage limit according to the country).
To be eligible for repairs carried out free of charge under PEUGEOT’s contractual warranties, all warranty-related repairs and all maintenance operations specified by PEUGEOT, in accordance with the prescribed servicing intervals, must be performed exclusively by a PEUGEOT authorised repairer. Failure to comply with the prescribed servicing intervals will render the warranty void.
The PEUGEOT contractual warranties are applicable for as long as your vehicle remains registered and driven in the countries of the territorial zone of the country in which the new vehicle was originally registered. If your vehicle is resold, its successive purchasers will benefit from the various PEUGEOT contractual warranties until their respective dates of expiry, provided that the conditions of application of these warranties have been fulfilled by you and each of them. For this reason, you undertake to inform your purchaser of the conditions of application of these warranties.
CONTRACTUAL WARRANTY OF MANUFACTURING DEFECTS
What your contractual warranty covers:
Your PEUGEOT vehicle is warranted against manufacturing defects for a period of 3 years or 100,000km, whichever comes first, starting from the vehicle's registration date to the customer.
Other than the restrictions mentioned below, your vehicle's contractual warranty covers the repair or replacement, free of charge, of the parts recognised to be faulty by PEUGEOT or its representative, as well as the labour necessary to repair the vehicle. This operation may
be performed using either new parts, standard exchange parts or parts in direct warranty. Automatic gearboxes can be refurbished.
In addition, if your vehicle is immobilised because of a breakdown covered by the warranty, it is your responsibility to bring your vehicle to the nearest PEUGEOT authorized repairer.
Work carried out under the contractual warranty does not extend the warranty. In particular, the replacement of a part during work carried out under warranty does not extend the warranty of the part. The contractual warranty, which covers the replacement parts, expires on the date of expiry of your vehicle's warranty.
These provisions do not prevent the implementation of the legal guarantee.
Parts replaced under the contractual warranty become the property of PEUGEOT.
What the contractual warranty does not cover:
- maintenance and servicing operations necessary for the correct operation of your vehicle, mentioned in the Warranty and Maintenance Record, the addition of additive and the replacement of the particle emission filter at the appropriate mileages and the replacement of consumable parts such as the oil, air, fuel or passenger compartment filters,
- adjustments or resets (tracking, wheel balancing, front suspension, doors, etc.),
- the replacement of parts that are subject to normal wear associated with the use of the vehicle, its mileage or its geographic or climatic environment, is not covered unless the wear is caused by a manufacturing fault. This concerns the following parts, whereby the replacement relating to a manufacturing defect is accepted:
- 12v ancillaries battery – 24 months
- brake pads – 6 months or 10,000km
- brake linings and brake discs– 6 months or 10,000km
- clutch friction plate, cover and release bearing– 60,000km, shock absorbers – 60,000km
- wiper blades – Not covered after the Warranty Start Date
- bulbs (except xenon and LED) – 6 months or 10,000km
- vibration and noise linked with the operation of the vehicle, deterioration such as discolouration, alteration or distortion of parts due to normal ageing,
- damage caused by the use of fluids, parts or accessories which are not genuine or of equivalent quality, as well as the use of unsuitable or poor quality fuels and the use of any additional additive not recommended by PEUGEOT,
- damage caused by natural phenomena, hail, flooding, lightning, storms or other atmospheric hazards, as well as damage caused by accidents, fire or theft,
- the consequences of repairs, conversions or modifications which may have been carried out on your vehicle by companies which are not approved by the manufacturer, as well as the consequences of fitting accessories which are not approved by the latter,
- the tyres, which are guaranteed directly by their respective manufacturer. The PEUGEOT network will be able to assist you in approaching the latter,
- any other costs that are not specifically covered by this contractual warranty, in particular the costs incurred because of the vehicle being off the road, such as loss of enjoyment or use, etc.
What is required to benefit fully from the contractual warranty?
Present your vehicle's up-to-date "Maintenance Record", including the warranty certificate in particular, duly completed by the dealership which sold the vehicle.
Have the vehicle maintained and serviced in strict conformity with PEUGEOT's instructions and must be able to provide proof of this (maintenance records, invoices, etc.).
On detection of a defect, your vehicle should be taken for repair to a PEUGEOT authorised repairer during normal opening hours. The aim of this measure is to maintain your safety and that of your passengers, as well as preventing the defect experienced becoming worse, which could lead to the need for more extensive repairs than were originally required. Consequently, the contractual warranty does not cover a defect and its consequences where you have not taken action as soon as the said defect was detected.
You are also obliged to respond to any invitation from PEUGEOT authorised repairer to have a correction of your vehicle carried out immediately.
Non-compliance with these rules would render you responsible for any consequences, direct or indirect, that might arise concerning the correct operation of your vehicle.
The contractual warranty will not be valid in the following cases:
- If modifications or adaptations have been carried out on your vehicle which are neither provided for nor authorised by PEUGEOT or which have been carried out without complying with the technical instructions defined by the latter,
- The defect is due to negligence on the part of the user or failure to observe instructions shown in the handbook or maintenance record,
- If your vehicle has been used in abnormal circumstances or in competition or if it has been overloaded, even for a short time,
- if your vehicle's odometer has been modified or its actual mileage cannot be established
- with certainty. (If the odometer is replaced, the "odometer replacement form" in the "Warranty and Maintenance Record" must be completed by an authorised repairer of PEUGEOT).
