CONSUMER LIMITED WARRANTY AGREEMENT

 

Your product is covered by a limited warranty by VM Audio 

as established below:

 

Mobile Electronics Limited Warranty

Products purchased from an Authorized VM Audio Dealer 

are warranted to be free of defects in material and 

workmanship for one (1) year from the date of original 

purchase under normal usage.  Products that are identified 

as “refurbished” have a limited warranty of ninety (90) 

days from the date of original purchase.  Dated proof of 

purchase (original receipt or invoice) will be required for all 

warranty claims.  In the unlikely event that you experienced 

a manufacturing defect or malfunction during the warranty 

period, VM Audio will repair the defective product or replace 

with the same or equivalent product if the same item is not 

available or discontinued.  Replacement product may have 

superficial blemishes or scratches that do not affect the 

performance of the product.  This warranty is only intended 

and valid for the original purchaser and cannot be extended 

to subsequent owners.  Any applicable implied warranties 

are limited to the period of the expressed warranty starting 

from the original purchase date.  No warranties, expressed 

or implied, will be accepted after the previously listed periods.  

Exclusions may apply; please check your local state laws.

Instructions for Claiming Warranty Service

If you should require warranty service, please return the 

product to the Authorized VM Audio Dealer you originally 

purchased the item for an experienced and speedy claim of 

your warranty service.  Contact VM Audio directly to find the 

Authorized Dealers nearest you.

 

In the case the defective merchandise needs to be returned 

to VM Audio, please contact us and a Return Merchandise 

Authorization (RMA) number will be assigned. It is important 

to pack all defective items in the original packaging to 

prevent damages from shipping, and be sure to write the 

RMA number clearly on the outside of the box for faster 

processing. Do not include non-defective items as it is not 

necessary and will increase your shipping costs.

Include a copy of the original receipt or invoice with the 

purchase date, dealer’s name, customer’s name and invoice 

number clearly visible.  Manufacturing date may be used if no 

proof of purchase is provided.   The customer will pay to ship 

the defective product; COD will not be accepted.

 

Please follow the above instructions carefully to prevent 

voiding your warranty.

 

Your Warranty Service Does Not Cover the Following:

-Products not purchased from an Authorized VM Audio 

Dealer

-Damages from poor installation by not following the included 

instruction manual.

-Damages due to excessive moisture, heat and other 

elements from improper care.

-Evidence of tampering or repair by non-authorized personnel.

-Products not issued an RMA number.

-Damage during freight from poor packaging or handling.

-Return shipping on non-defective items.

 

Warranty Turnaround Time

It is VM Audio’s goal to turnaround the merchandise in a 

timely fashion of 1 week.  Unexpected delays may occur due 

to repair parts or replacement shortage.

process for your country.
