What doesn't the Warranty cover?
If the defective materials or workmanship do not relate to manufacture, then the repair or replacement of the defect won't be covered by the Warranty.
This means that the warranty will not cover defects caused by (including but not limited to) the following:
● Ignoring any instructions contained in the owner's manual or failing to correctly respond to any warning lights or messages in the vehicle that appear on the dashboard information system.
● If you misuse your vehicle - including not driving it in accordance with the instructions in the owner's manual, driving at excessive speeds, engaging in competition or motor sports or exceeding the vehicle’s capacity in regards to use, application or load.
● Failing to service or maintain the vehicle according to the instructions or at the prescribed intervals as defined in the owner's manual.
● If servicing, maintenance or repairs are performed by a non-authorised Mercedes-Benz Retailer which causes a defect.
● Modifications in engine output or vehicle specifications without Mercedes-Benz’s approval
● If a defect is caused by non-genuine Mercedes-Benz parts or parts, accessories, supplies or service products which are not approved by Mercedes-Benz.
● If a defect is caused by any modification, bodywork alterations or incorrect fitting of an accessory to your original Mercedes-Benz after its manufacture by a non-authorised Mercedes-Benz Retailer. Third party products or services may be covered by a warranty provided by the relevant third party manufacturer or supplier. Your authorised Mercedes-Benz Retailer may be able to provide you with contact details so that you can enquire as to whether a third party warranty may apply.
● Defects caused by improper care or cleaning methods or the use of cleaning materials, fuels or lubricants not approved by Mercedes-Benz.
● If a defect is a result of normal wear and tear on items and consumables such as spark plugs, wiper blades, lubricants, brake pads, brake discs, clutches and tyres.
