warrantor or a repair shop authorized by the warrantor, are not
eligible for reimbursement regardless of the existence of a
warranty claim. This warranty does not entitle the warranty
holder to any further claims against the warrantor, in particular
to replacement delivery, withdrawal from the purchase
agreement, a price reduction or compensation for damages
(even in case of consequential damages) as well as to
compensation for direct or indirect material or immaterial
consequential damages. The warranty also does not include,
e.g. claims for reimbursement of transport or travel costs,
towing costs, lost wages or vacation time as well as
reimbursement of any frustrated expenses. The legal rights of
the warranty holder vis-a-vis the dealership is in no way
affected by this warranty. The legal warranty rights of the
warranty holder vis-a-vis the dealership exist independently of
the claims from this warranty.
3. The warranty period begins, depending on which event occurs
earlier, on the day of the vehicle’s initial registration or the day
the vehicle is handed over to the first buyer, but no later than
18 months after the vehicle was first delivered to the dealer.
It is valid for the duration of the vehicle’s usability, but no
longer than 12 years, depending on which event occurs earlier
and only up to a maximum total mileage of 120,000 km. The
warranty is not affected by a change in ownership of the
vehicle. The warranty expires if the annual inspections
required under Section 4 are not carried out. The warranty
period is not extended or restarted by the performance of
warranty work.
4. A prerequisite for successfully asserting a warranty claim is to
ensure that the vehicle is presented to an authorized LMC
repair shop every year for the performance of a water ingress
detection inspection. This inspection must be carried out
annually after the start of the warranty period (see Section 3.).
The costs for carrying out the water ingress detection
inspection are to be borne by the warranty holder. The
warranty holder can only assert claims under this warranty if
he or she can prove that the annual inspections have been
duly carried out by an authorized LMC repair shop.
This includes an inspection record completed by the LMC
dealership. The warranty holder is required to provide proof
that the water ingress detection inspections have been
performed regularly.
5. The warranty holder is required to report in writing the
occurrence of a leak or any moisture indicating a leak to an
authorized LMC repair shop within 15 days of becoming
aware thereof. Negligent and gross negligent ignorance is
equivalent to knowledge of water ingress. The receipt of the
written notification by an authorized LMC repair shop is
decisive for complying with the 15-day period. The warranty
certificate must be included with the notification. No claim can
be asserted under this warranty if the water ingress is not
reported in a timely and proper manner.
