Jaguar Land Rover in partnership with Coscharis Motors have announced a five-year warranty or 150,000km, whichever comes first on all Jaguar Land Rover customers for any purchases from July 1, 2015. The objective of this new package according to Coscharis Motors is to provide their valued customers with additional peace of mind motoring for up to five years.

According to the Group Managing Director, Josiah Samuel, “we are continuing with our commitment to ensuring that our customers enjoy fantastic opportunity for our Jaguar Landrover brands through ease ownership”.

The five year/150,000km new vehicle warranty is an extension of the previous three year/100,00km warranty and avail customers a marginal reduction in the cost of their vehicle maintenance for the period. By implication retail and fleet owners can decide to retain their vehicles for longer periods while Coscharis will take responsibility for the maintenance.

The 5 year warranty is transferable to the new owner should the car be sold before it expires, given it added resale value. The owners of three years or less aged Jaguar Landrover vehicles can also subscribe to two more years warranty.

He explained for customers to keep their Extended Warranty valid, they must keep their vehicle maintained in line with the manufacturers servicing schedule. If the Service History is not complete, the Extended Warranty coverage may be reinstated through the completion of the necessary Technical Inspection, which may involve certain fees.

This condition means that:
•If one service is missed the coverage level drops to only cover Non-Service Related claims, but can be reinstated to full coverage.
•If two consecutive services are missed the Warranty is invalidated, but can be reinstated to full coverage.
• If More than two consecutive Services are missed the Warranty is invalidated and cannot be reinstated.
Similarly, warranty provision has been made for the approved used vehicles. The Approved Used Warranty will ensure all Approved Used vehicles are sold with 24 months /50,000km warranty coverage. This warranty covers used vehicles within 3 years or 100,000km mileage.
