WARRANTY: 
SunStream Corporation

®

 

(“Company”) warrants its Products for non

-commercial and/or non-

governmental use for a period of three (3)* years, in both fresh and salt water, to the original 

Purchaser (“Purchaser”) against manufacturing defects in all Product materials and workman-

ship beginning from date of purchase of the Product from Company** under the following 
terms and conditions: 
 
NOTICE REQUIREMENTS AND REMEDIES:  If the Purchaser discovers a defect, the Com-

pany, or its authorized Company dealer or agent, will, at the Company’s option:  (1) repair the 

Product, (2) replace the defective part, or (3) refund the purchase price of the Product upon 
confirmation by Company that the Product is defective, provided that the Company receives 
notice of the defect from the Purchaser or Company dealer before the warranty period lapses.  
Product changes caused by age or environment (such as marine growth or heat) shall not con-
stitute a defect.  Confirmation of the defect shall require that reasonable proof of the defect be 
provided by Purchaser to Company or Company dealer, and may include that the Product or 

part be returned to Company for inspection at Purchaser’s initial expense.  This warranty shall 

not apply if Company receives notification after the before-stated deadline, regardless of when 
the defect occurred or was discovered, and regardless of the reason for the delay in notifica-

tion.  “Notification” shall be deemed to have occurred when the Purchaser or Company dealer 

sends written notice to Company by fax or by e-mail and when receipt is confirmed by Com-

pany’s response.

 

 
EXCLUSIONS:  This warranty does not apply to damages caused by or due to: (1) accident 
(including, without limitation, collision, fire, flood, wind, ice or any other natural disaster or acts 
of God), abuse, misuse, overloading, out of level or improper boat loading (i.e.: not fully on, too 
far on, or crooked on lift), or (2) faulty assembly or installation if such assembly or installation 
was not performed by a Company employee or Company dealer.  Company is not responsible 

for determining the weight or dimensions of Purchaser’s boat, and Purchaser is advised that 

published boat specifications are often inaccurate.  This warranty does not apply to wear and 
damage of boat covers.  Purchaser is responsible for confirming cover does not catch or hang 
on boat or structure every time boat cover is covered or uncovered.  This warranty is void if the 
Product has been modified without the permission of the Company or if any Company serial 
number has been removed or defaced.  Normal maintenance requires an annual inspection of 
the Product by a Company employee or Company dealer, including bolts, pins, hydraulics, 
pump, electronics, and welds and failure to undertake such maintenance may constitute 

“abuse.”  Lift components’ fluid level and condition, including battery water and acid, Sun-
Fluid™ and strainer cleaning are maintenance items and are not covered by this warranty.  

Zincs, ropes, batteries, cosmetic concerns and custom coatings are not covered by this war-
ranty.  Batteries supplied by Company that are maintained in top operating condition by Pur-
chaser are warranted for a period of one (1) year.  Underwater light systems and the 

Dock-

Jock

 

are not warranted for use in brackish or salt water.  This warranty does not void or alter 

any rights the Purchaser may have against dealers or suppliers of component parts.
