See your car’s service book for more information.

Excerpt from the warranty conditions:
“In order for the warranty to apply, the vehicle must be maintained and serviced according to the manufacturer’s instructions throughout the entire warranty period. During the warranty period, service and any warranty repairs shall be performed by the selling company or by a workshop designated by this company. All maintenance work must be performed professionally and without exception documented in the vehicle’s original service book, which must be able to be presented to us upon request in the event of damage or a defect.”

Upon delivery, the vehicle shall be tested and have services performed according to plan and without any damage to the components covered by the warranty. When you purchase your new car, your sales representative will help you to decide on the warranty/warranties that suit your choice of vehicle.

Claims are submitted by your chosen workshop on our website 

Once the workshop has submitted a claim on your behalf, it is processed and evaluated by our skilled claims managers according to your warranty conditions.

Normally, the workshop will receive a written response via e-mail within an hour from our claims managers, informing it of whether the claim has been approved. The workshop will then notify you immediately. If the claim is approved, you can then arrange for the repairs to be performed at the workshop.
