For example, you may have:
• An implied warranty of merchantability (that the car is reasonably fit for the
general purpose for which it was sold) or...
• An implied warranty of fitness for a particular purpose (that the car is
suitable for your special purposes).
These implied warranties are limited, to the extent allowed by law, to the time
period covered by the New Vehicle Limited Warranty, or to the applicable time
period provided by state law, whichever period is shorter.
What is Covered Under the New Vehicle Limited Warranty?
Your warranty covers you for one year, or 12,000 miles free recovery service
(organised by your supplying dealer for markets outside the UK).
During this coverage period, the authorised Morgan service point will repair,
replace, or adjust all parts on your vehicle that are defective in factory-supplied
materials or workmanship. Items and conditions that are not covered by the New
Vehicle Limited Warranty are described below. When making warranty repairs
on your vehicle, the authorised service point will use genuine Morgan new or
re-manufactured parts, or other parts that are authorised by Morgan.
What is Not Covered?
Damage Caused By:
• Accidents, collision or objects striking the vehicle.
• Acts of theft, vandalism, war, riot, fire or explosion.
• Freezing.
• Misuse of the vehicle, such as speeding, driving over curbs, overloading.
• Altering or modifying the vehicle – including the engine, body, chassis, or
components – after the vehicle leaves Morgan’s control.

(For example, but not limited to, cellular phones, alarm systems.)
• Tampering with the vehicle, tampering its emissions systems, or with
other parts that affect these systems.
• Disconnecting or altering the odometer or allowing the odometer to be
inoperative for an extended period of time with the result that the actual
mileage cannot be determined.
• Using contaminated or improper fuel/fluids.
• Customer-applied chemicals or accidental spills.

engine or control systems.
• Driving on unreasonable road surfaces such as closed roads, circuits or race

“competition-only” parts.
