Service & Warranty Information
How to Get Service Under the Terms of the Limited One-Year Warranty
When you suspect an item is defective, please check the operator's manual for standard operation and
trouble-shooting techniques that may correct the problem. Additional information may be found on the
M.T.H. Website. Should you still require service, follow the instructions below to obtain warranty
service.
First, e-mail, write, call or fax a M.T.H. Authorized Service Center (ASC) in your area to obtain Repair
Authorization. You can find the list of ASCs on the M.T.H. Website, www.mth-railking.com.
Authorized Service Centers are required to make warranty repairs on items sold
only
from that store; all
other repairs may-- or may not be done at the store's own discretion. If you did not purchase the item
directly from the ASC, you will need to select a National Authorized Service Center (NASC). These
centers are compensated by M.T.H. to perform warranty service for any customer whose repair qualifies
for warranty service. A list of NASC retailers can be located on the M.T.H. Website or by calling 410-
381-2580. Should the warranty no longer apply, you may choose either an ASC or NASC retailer to
service your M.T.H. Product. A reasonable service fee will be charged.
CAUTION: Make sure the product is packed in its original factory packaging including its foam and
plastic wrapping material to prevent damage to the merchandise. There is no need to return the entire
set if only one of the components is in need of re pair
unless otherwise instructed by the Service Center
.
The
shipment must be prepaid and we recommend that it be insured. A cover letter including your
name, address, daytime phone number, e-mail address (if available), Return Authorization
number (if required by the service center, a copy of your sales receipt and a full description of
the problem must be included to facilitate the repairs. Please include the description regardless
of whether you discussed the problem with a service technician when contacting the Service
Center for your Return Authorization.
Please make sure you have followed the instructions carefully before returning any merchandise for
service. Authorized M.T.H. Service Centers are independently owned and operated and are not agents
or representatives of M.T.H. Electric Trains. M.T.H. assumes no responsibility, financial or otherwise,
for material left in their possession, or work done, by privately owned M.T.H. Authorized Service
Centers.
If you need assistance at any time email MTH Service at [email protected], or call 410 381-
2580.
