One Year Limited Warranty

 

 

Effective April 25, 2005, MOTREC, Inc. (MOTREC) hereby warrants to the Original Retail Purchaser (Owner) that any of its 
vehicles shall be free from any defect in materials for a period of 90 DAYS while in the possession of such Original Retail 
Purchaser. This warranty IS NOT TRANSFERABLE to any subsequent Buyer. 
 
The warranty period is extended to one year or one thousand (1,000) hours, which ever first occurs, on the electric motor, 
differential (parts that bathe in oil) and the electronic speed controller.  MOTREC makes no warranty or representation with 
respect to the internal combustion engine, tires and batteries, since their respective manufacturers cover such parts. 
Accessories (light, gage, horn, etc), electrical contacts (switch, solenoid, contactor, relay), diodes & fuses, belts & pulleys, 
filters & spark plugs, lubricants, brake linings & shoes, brake drums & discs, seals, seats, trim and other items subject to 
wear are not included in this warranty; nor is any item that in MOTREC sole opinion, shows evidence of neglect, misuse, 
abuse, collision or alteration. 
 
This warranty shall not apply to normal maintenance requirements as described in the User Manual, and to damages during 
shipment. The latter is the carrier's responsibility. No compensation will be allowed for delays. 
 
To initiate warranty coverage on any MOTREC vehicle, the Dealer must complete and return the “Sales/Installation Report” 
to MOTREC within 30 days after delivery to the Original Retail Purchaser; or within 90 days after the delivery date to the 
Dealer, which ever occurs first. Failure to follow these procedures will result in considering the warranty coverage effective 
as of the shipment date from the factory. 
 
The defective vehicle must be returned, at the Owner's expense, to an authorised MOTREC Dealer within 30 days after 
failure.  The Owner will not be charged for parts and labour required for warranty repairs, which must be performed by an 
authorised MOTREC Dealer only.  The vehicle will be returned at the owner’s expense. The Warranty Claim Forms must be 
completed and returned with the defective part(s) to MOTREC within 30 days after repair was done. No compensation will be 
allowed for damages caused by vehicle downtime. 
 
It is the responsibility of the owner of the vehicle to make sure that the driver is properly trained and instructed in the safety 
features and operation of the vehicle, including vehicle stability, as required by OSHA and ANSI-B56. Operators shall read, 
understand and follow the safety and operating instructions in MOTREC Manual before driving the vehicle. Operators shall 
not be permitted to drive the vehicle unless a complete and adequate training has been provided. Driving a vehicle 
constitutes a hazard. The driver is responsible for the control of the vehicle while driving and must always evaluate and care 
for all peculiar situations that he or she may meet while driving. The driver assumes the inherent hazards related to this 
activity. The vehicle is designed for off-road use only. MOTREC disclaims any liability for incidental or consequential 
damages, to include, but not be limited to, personal injury or property damage arising from vehicle misuse, lack of 
maintenance or any defect in the vehicle. 
 
It is the responsibility of the Owner of the vehicle to make sure that the service technicians are properly trained as required 
by OSHA and ANSI-B56. Service technicians shall read, understand and follow instructions in the MOTREC manual before 
servicing the vehicle. Only qualified and authorized personnel shall be permitted to maintain, repair, adjust and inspect the 
vehicle. 
 
MOTREC prohibits, and disclaims responsibility for, any vehicle modification altering the weight distribution and stability, 
increasing the speed or affecting the safety of the vehicle.  Such modifications can cause serious personal injury or property 
damage for which MOTREC disclaims any responsibility. 
 
For Owners that are located outside North America, the warranty period starts the date of shipment from the factory, and the 
defective parts must be returned at the Owner's expense to MOTREC prior to warranty repair.
