Roo Systems Warranty

Roo Systems Warranty

Contrary to what a dealer may tell you, the fitment of aftermarket parts does not void you vehicle warranty.

If a dealer ever tells you, “That will void your warranty”. The first thing you need to do is ask the dealer to put that in writing. You will find that they will not do this and more often than not, the dealer will then say, “if the part makes anything fail it’s not covered under warranty.” Or words to that effect. In other words, the aftermarket part you fitted will not automatically void your vehicle warranty.

If the aftermarket part causes a genuine part to fail then of course the manufacturer does not need to warrant the original part and that is fair enough.

Dealers have a lot of money invested in their parts and service networks hence if they can get you to believe that accessories/upgrades that have you fitted to your 4WD has caused the failure then the dealer stands to make money from your vehicle breakdown via labour and parts charges. The labour will be charged at their premium rate and you will be paying his retail price for all parts and consumables. If the breakdown is deemed a warranty job, the dealer only receive a token amount from the manufacturer and get the replacement parts for free. This highlights the vested financial interest dealers have in limiting/minimising warranty work.

This means that when you purchase a part for your car that is built well and maintains the safety features and integrity of the vehicle then you will not have any problems.

The onus is on the dealer/manufacturer to prove the aftermarket part has caused the failure of their part. It is not the other way around. You do not need to prove anything.
