18 smart New Vehicle Limited Warranty - Things You Should Know
Insurance Write-Off; or Repaired
or Replaced Parts
Any vehicle which has been damaged to
such an extent that the owner, insurer,
financing institution or leasing
company determined the vehicle to be a
“total loss”, “write off” or equivalent,
is not covered by this warranty.
This includes but is not limited to
vehicles issued a “salvage”, “scrap”,
“dismantled” or similar title under
any state’s law.
Any parts repaired or replaced under
an insurance claim or required as a
result of events which are not covered
under this warranty (see “Items Which
Are Not Covered”, (e Page 14), for
example, damages due to accidents,
misuse, or negligence, and in either
case, any subsequent consequential
damage to the vehicle are not covered
by this warranty.
Paint and Other Appearance Items
Defects in paint, trim or other
appearance items are normally
taken care of during our new vehicle
preparation or by the authorized smart
Center during new vehicle inspection.
We suggest that if you find any paint or
appearance problems that you advise
your authorized smart Center as soon
as possible since deterioration due to
use and exposure is not covered by the
warranty.
The instructions in your Operator’s
Manual regarding the care of paint,
upholstery, trim items and convertible
tops, as applicable, must be followed
explicitly to maintain your warranty
coverage.
