Out Of Warranty Repairs

For out of warranty repairs, include  
prepayment in the amount you were 
quoted by the Beltronics Customer Service 
Representative. If the detector has been 
damaged, abused or modified, the repair 
cost will be calculated on a parts and labor 
basis. If it exceeds the basic repair charge, 
you will be contacted with a quotation. If 
the additional payment is not received 
within 30 days (or if you notify us that you 
choose not to have your V8 repaired at the 
price quoted), your V8 will be returned, 
without repair. Payment can be made by 
check, money order, or credit card.
