Renault Z.E. Warranty

Your new vehicle (the “Vehicle”) is protected by this RENAULT New Vehicle Warranty (the “Warranty” provided by Renault UK Ltd). This means the Vehicle is guaranteed on the terms and conditions set out in the Warranty against any defect relating to material, fitting or manufacturing fault under the Warranty for a period of 24 months, without limitation of mileage, from the date your Vehicle is first registered (the “Registration Date”) to you (the “Customer”) as shown on the Warranty & Service Sheet given to you when you take delivery of the Vehicle. In addition, the non

LCV models Warranty will run from the 25th month to the 60th month after the Registration Date or until your new Vehicle has been driven 100,000 miles, whichever comes first. For LCV models, the Warranty will run from the 25th month to the 36th month after the Registration Date or until your new Vehicle has been driven 100,000 miles, whichever comes first. Any mileage covered by the Vehicle prior to the Registration Date will be included in this mileage limit figure.

The Warranty applies to any Vehicle sold new in the United Kingdom as long as it remains registered in one of the following European countries:

UNITED KINGDOM – ANDORRA – AUSTRIA – BELGIUM – BULGARIA – CROATIA – CYPRUS – DENMARK – ESTONIA – FINLAND – FRANCE –

If the Vehicle is registered in one of the countries inside the geographic zone (detailed above) other than the United Kingdom, the Warranty of the country of first registration will be applicable. If a Vehicle is likely to be principally used or registered outside the geographic zone detailed above, the Customer cannot benefit from the Warranty and the Warranty will be invalid. Please contact your nearest RENAULT Dealer for advice in these circumstances.

The Vehicle must be serviced according to approved RENAULT standards as described to the Customer in the Driver’s Handbook in order not to risk invalidating the Warranty should an incident be due to the lack of or quality of servicing.

To benefit from the Warranty, the Customer must:

• Make sure the Warranty & Service Sheet does actually show the Registration Date for the Vehicle on which entitlement to the Warranty
  depends.
• Go to any member of the RENAULT Network and authorise it to carry out work covered by and detailed in the Warranty.
• Present the Driver’s Handbook with the Service sheets duly filled in, justifying the entitlement to Warranty and to show that the servicing
  operations recommended by RENAULT have indeed been carried out.

The Anti-Corrosion Warranty applies from the Registration Date of the Vehicle as follows:

• All Vehicles (except Twizy, Master): 12 years

• Twizy, Master: 6 years
  

The Anti-Corrosion Warranty covers the same geographic zone as the Warranty

RENAULT guarantees only the bodywork and sub-frame of all RENAULT Vehicles against perforation originating from the interior of the Vehicle where the corrosion is due to a manufacturing or material fault or a problem concerning application of anti-corrosion products to Vehicle metalwork (“Protection Products”) by RENAULT or a RENAULT Network Member.

The Anti-Corrosion Warranty covers repair or replacement of corroded parts of the Vehicle’s bodywork and sub-frame subject to them being a
result of a manufacturer defect, material fault or the application of anti-corrosion products recommended by the manufacturer.

It is the RENAULT workshop’s responsibility to decide whether repair or replacement of these parts is required. The RENAULT workshop will inform the Customer of this.

• Items outside the scope of the Warranty or damage not covered by the Warranty, as specified on pages 2 to 3 of these Warranty Terms and Conditions.

• Mechanical elements that are not an integral part of the bodywork or subframe (including but not limited to alloy wheels).
  

To benefit from the Anti-Corrosion Warranty, the Customer must approach any member of the RENAULT network displaying the make’s brand, which are the only organisations able to carry out operations under this Warranty.

The Customer must present the Driver’s Handbook with the Service sheets duly documented (validation of the anti-corrosion check) to justify entitlement to the Warranty.

The application of the Anti-Corrosion Warranty depends on the anti-corrosion inspections carried out on the bodywork, subframe and underbody. The inspections must be carried out at the mileages stated on the Warranty & Service Sheet and at least once every two years. The periodic services within the RENAULT Network include these inspections.

In the event of the Customer requesting the Anti-Corrosion inspection carried out other than during the periodic service, the resultant costs for this inspection will be payable by the Customer.

At the time of these inspections, the Customer will check that the professional who has carried out the operation has properly filled in all relevant anti-corrosion and subframe checks, thus validating the Anti-Corrosion Warranty procedure. The Customer shall arrange for repairs to be carried out as soon as possible.

The application of the RENAULT Anti-Corrosion Warranty also depends on the repairs to the bodywork and the subframe being carried out in compliance with RENAULT’s recommendations. The refurbishment operations or replacement of components under the conditions described in the paragraph entitled “Scope of Anti-Corrosion Warranty” will take the general condition of the Vehicle into account as regards to its age,mileage and the level at which it has been maintained.

The replaced parts under the Anti-Corrosion Warranty will become the full legal ownership of RENAULT.

The refurbishment operations and components fitted under the Anti-Corrosion Warranty are covered until the end of the initial Anti-Corrosion Warranty period. Transfer of ownership of the Vehicle does not alter the terms and conditions of the Anti-Corrosion Warranty. 

RENAULT guarantees the paintwork of the exterior painted bodywork and other painted components (bumpers, original spoiler and rear view mirrors) only. All other items are excluded.

The Paintwork Warranty applies from the Registration Date of the Vehicle as follows:

• All Vehicles (except Twizy): 3 years
• Twizy: 2 years

The Paintwork Warranty covers the same geographic zone as the Warranty

The Paintwork Warranty covers refurbishment or replacement, free of charge, by a RENAULT Network member of the items listed above only, showing paintwork defects (for example: damage to the varnish or top coat, due to any material, manufacturing or application fault) recognised by the Manufacturer, during the Paintwork Warranty Period.

The decision as to whether and how to repaint the Vehicle or replace parts under the Paintwork Warranty will be taken by RENAULT (in its sole discretion) in consultation with the relevant RENAULT Network member who will take into account the general condition of the Vehicle as regards to its age, mileage and the level at which it has been maintained.

•  Items outside the scope of the Warranty or damage not covered by the Warranty, as specified on pages 2 to 3 of these Warranty Terms and Conditions.

• Damage caused by events beyond RENAULT’s reasonable control, including but not limited to: lightning, fire, floods, earthquakes, acts of war, terrorism, civil commotion, sabotage, vandalism, acts of God, riots and attacks.

• Mechanical elements that are not an integral part of the bodywork or subframe (including but not limited to alloy wheels).

In order to benefit from the Paintwork Warranty, the Customer must go to any member of the RENAULT Network for rectification.

The Customer must show the relevant RENAULT Network member any relevant previous inspection documentation, the Driver’s Handbook with the Service sheets duly filled in, proving entitlement to the Paintwork Warranty (the Driver’s Handbook Service sheets must show that the periodic body inspections have been completed according to servicing requirements).

In return for the parts delivered by RENAULT under the Paintwork Warranty, the parts replaced within the framework of the Paintwork Warranty rightfully become the property of RENAULT.

Any repainting done under the Paintwork Warranty will be covered by the Paintwork Warranty until it expires.

Transfer of ownership of the Vehicle
