MONACO LiMited WArrANty - 2008
MONACO ® MOTORHOME LIMITED WARRANTY
WHAT THE PERIOD OF COVERAGE IS:
This Limited Warranty provided by Monaco
®
(“Warrantor”) covers those
components, assemblies and systems of your new motorhome not excluded under the
section “What is Not Covered” and when sold by an authorized dealer, for twelve (12)
months from the original retail purchase date or the first 24,000 miles of use, whichever
occurs first. However, this Limited Warranty provided by Warrantor covers the steel or
aluminum frame structure, only, of the sidewalls (excluding slide outs), roof, and rear
and front walls for sixty (60) months from the original retail purchase date or the first
50,000 miles of use, whichever occurs first.
If you use your motorhome for any rental, commercial or business purposes
whatsoever, the Limited Warranty provided by Warrantor covers your new motorhome
when sold by an authorized dealer for ninety (90) days from the original retail purchase
date or the first 24,000 miles of use, whichever occurs first. In addition, the Limited
Warranty provided by Warrantor covers the steel or aluminum frame structure, only, of
the sidewalls (excluding slide outs), roof, and rear and front walls for twelve (12) months
from the original retail purchase date or the first 24,000 miles of use, whichever occurs
first. A conclusive presumption that your motorhome has been used for commercial
and/or business purposes arises if you have filed a federal or state tax form claiming
any business tax benefit related to your ownership of the motorhome. The above
Limited Warranty coverage applies to all owners, including subsequent owners, of the
motorhome. However, a subsequent owner must submit a warranty transfer form by
filing the form through an authorized Monaco dealer. A subsequent owner’s warranty
coverage period is the remaining balance of the warranty coverage period the prior owner
was entitled to under this Limited Warranty. Warranty transfer forms can be obtained by
contacting the Customer Relations Department. There is no charge for the transfer.
LIMITATION AND DISCLAIMER OF IMPLIED WARRANTIES:
IMPLIED WARRANTIES, IF ANY, ARISING BY WAY OF STATE LAW,
INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY
AND ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
PURPOSE, ARE LIMITED IN DURATION TO THE TERM OF THIS
LIMITED WARRANTY AND ARE LIMITED IN SCOPE OF COVERAGE
TO THOSE PORTIONS OF THE MOTORHOME COVERED BY THIS
LIMITED WARRANTY. WARRANTOR DISCLAIMS ALL IMPLIED AND
EXPRESS WARRANTIES, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTY OF
MERCHANTABILITY AND THE IMPLIED WARRANTY OF FITNESS
FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ON COMPONENTS AND APPLIANCES
EXCLUDED FROM COVERAGE AS SET FORTH BELOW.
There is no warranty
of any nature made by Warrantor beyond that contained in this Limited Warranty. No
person has authority to enlarge, amend or modify this Limited Warranty. The dealer is
not the Warrantor’s agent but is an independent entity. Warrantor is not responsible for
any undertaking, representation or warranty made by any dealer or other person beyond
those expressly set forth in this Limited Warranty. Some states do not allow limitations
on how long an implied warranty lasts, so the above limitation may not apply to you.
WHAT THE WARRANTY COVERS:
Warrantor’s Limited Warranty covers defects in the manufacture of your motorhome
and defects in materials used to manufacture your motorhome. “Defect” means the
failure of the motorhome and/or the materials used to assemble the motorhome to
conform to Warrantor’s design and manufacturing specification and tolerances. Also
see the section “What the Warranty Does Not Cover” set out below.
WHAT WE WILL DO TO CORRECT PROBLEMS:
Warrantor’s sole and exclusive obligation is to repair and/or replace, at its option, any
covered defect if: ( 1 ) you notify Warrantor or one of its authorized servicing dealers of
the defect within the warranty coverage period and within five (5) days of discovering
the defect; and ( 2
) you deliver your Motorhome to Warrantor or Warrantor’s authorized
servicing dealer at your cost and expense. It is reasonable to expect some service items
to occur during the warranty period. The performance of warranty repairs shall not
extend the original warranty coverage period. Further, any performance of repairs after
the warranty coverage period has expired or any performance of repairs to component
parts and appliances that are excluded from coverage shall be considered “good will”
repairs, which shall not alter the express terms of this limited warranty. If the repair
or replacement remedy fails to successfully cure a defect after Warrantor received a
reasonable opportunity to cure the defect(s), your sole and exclusive remedy shall be
limited to Warrantor paying you the cost of having an independent third party perform
repair(s) to the defect(s).
Warrantor may use new and/or remanufactured parts and/or components of
substantially equal quality to complete any repair.
Defects and/or damage to interior and exterior surfaces, trim, upholstery and other
appearance items may occur at the factory during manufacture, during delivery of
the motorhome to the selling dealer or on the selling dealer’s lot. Normally, any such
defect or damage is detected and corrected at the factory or by the selling dealer during
the inspection process performed by the Warrantor and the selling dealer. If, however,
you discover any such defect or damage when you take delivery of the motorhome, you
must notify your dealer or Warrantor within five days of the date of purchase to have
repairs performed to the defect at no cost to you as provided by this Limited Warranty.
If either three or more unsuccessful repair attempts have been made to correct any
covered defect that you believe substantially impairs the value, use or safety of your
motorhome, or repairs to any covered defect(s) which you believe substantially impairs
the value, use or safety of your motorhome have taken 30 or more days to complete,
you must, to the extent permitted by law, notify Warrantor directly in writing of the
failure to successfully repair the defect(s) so that Warrantor can become directly
involved in exercising a final repair attempt for the purpose of performing a successful
repair to the identified defect(s).
