VEHICLE AND PARTS WARRANTIES
iii
The vehicle and parts warranty will not apply:
● Where the vehicle has not been maintained
in accordance with the manufacturer's
recommendations using the specified
lubricants and parts.
● Where the vehicle has been damaged by
neglect, accident or improper use or used for
competitive purposes.
● Where the vehicle has been altered from the
manufacturer's specification, or to any part
or assembly where the serial number
identification or label applied in production
has been defaced or removed.
● To taxi meter equipment or tyres which are
warranted directly by the manufacturer
concerned.
● To parts and accessories not supplied by the
manufacturer.
For the avoidance of doubt and following
questions received from various parties, LTI
Vehicles confirms that all LTI Dealers are free to
obtain original replacement parts for LTI
vehicles produced by other motor vehicle
manufacturers or by component manufacturers
for other motor vehicles, from the relevant
distributors for such parts, or replacement parts
of matching quality from a third undertaking of
their choice. LTI Dealers are free to use the
aforesaid parts for the repair or maintenance of
LTI vehicles, without prejudice to LTI Vehicles
requiring the use of LTI-approved replacement
parts for repairs carried out under warranty, free
servicing and vehicle recall work.
LTI Vehicles also confirms that the use of non
LTI-approved replacement parts or parts of
matching quality will not normally invalidate a
warranty claim unless those parts are seen to
have been the cause of the defect.
SERVICE HISTORY
To ensure that LTI Vehicles and the repairing LTI
Dealer have sufficient information to support
any warranty claim (see also facing page), your
service history for each routine maintenance
service must consist of the following:
● An itemised invoice from a legitimate VAT
registered repairer with the customers name,
address and the vehicle identity (Registration
number or VIN number); the date and mileage
at which each service has been performed;
part numbers of genuine LTI parts used;
quantities and specifications of oils and fluids
used; labour time & cost; the serial numbers
of any parts used that carry such numbers.
● A fully marked checklist of the tasks carried
out as described in the Maintenance
Requirements section of this handbook, with
the customers name, address and the vehicle
identity (Registration number or VIN number)
and signed off by the repairing technician.
The vehicle warranty does not cover the
following:
● The routine replacement of items which are
subject to wear, and which are affected by
the operating conditions of an individual
vehicle, examples of which include (but are
not confined to) the following:
These items will only be replaced under the
warranty arrangements if there is a
manufacturing defect in workmanship or
materials in the component concerned.
● Adjustments which may be necessary from
time to time and which depend on the way in
which the vehicle is operated, for example,
clutch and brake adjustment, wheel
alignment and balancing, headlight
alignment and engine tuning.
● Loss of profit, business contracts, revenues,
savings, or any increased costs and
expenses incurred by the operator of the
vehicle.
