Keeping Your Best4 Warranty Policy Valid

  • 7 Dec 2023

When it comes to protecting your investment in a new vehicle, a warranty provides invaluable peace of mind. However, maintaining the validity of your vehicle warranty requires diligence and strict following of certain guidelines.

 

Regular Maintenance is Key

One of the most critical aspects of keeping your warranty valid is ensuring your vehicle adheres to the manufacturer's recommended maintenance schedule. Regular servicing not only ensures the optimal performance of your vehicle but also prevents potential issues that could arise if neglected. Failure to do so may provide Best4 Warranty with grounds to void your warranty.

 

Choose an VAT Registered Garage

When it comes to servicing your vehicle, it must be completed at a VAT registered garage and fully itemised invoices must be retained. The only acceptable proof of servicing will be a fully detailed VAT service invoice.

 

Keep Detailed Service Records

Your VAT service invoices will indicate servicing dates and mileages. You must retain proof of all previous service invoices for our inspection in event of a claim to help establish that your vehicle has been properly cared for, strengthening your case and increasing the likelihood of the warranty being honoured. These records serve as evidence that you have adhered to the prescribed maintenance schedule and guidelines.

 

What if I’m unsure of the last time my vehicle was serviced?

If you do not have a valid service record book or printed service history of the vehicle, then the first service must be carried out within 6,000 miles or 6 months from the date of purchasing this warranty (whichever comes first).

 

Understand the Warranty Terms

A fundamental step in maintaining warranty validity is understanding the terms and conditions outlined in your warranty agreement. Best4Warranty recommends thoroughly reviewing the warranty documentation provided by us when purchasing your policy. This understanding will help you avoid unintentional violations and ensure that you meet all the specified requirements to keep your warranty intact.

 

Address Issues Promptly

If you notice any potential issues with your vehicle, address them promptly. As soon as your vehicle shows signs of an imminent failure, do not continue to use it. Do not start any repair work until authorised by Best4 Warranty. To find out more about how to make a claim click here.

 

Your vehicle warranty is a valuable asset that provides peace of mind. By following the guidelines provided by Best4Warranty, you can take proactive steps to ensure your warranty stays valid. Regular maintenance using a VAT registered garage, keeping detailed service records and understanding the warranty terms, are essential in maintaining a valid vehicle warranty. By incorporating these practices into your vehicle care routine, you can maximise the benefits of your warranty and enjoy a worry-free driving experience.
