Vehicle Warranty

browsing thru the buyer's guide ng C! mag kanina and napansin ko yung mga warranty ng different manufacturers... FYI lang...

TOYOTA, HONDA, MITSU, NISSAN, MAZDA, HYUNDAI - 100k kms / 3 years
FORD, ISUZU, SUZUKI, CHEVROLET, MERCEDES, PEUGEOT - 50k kms / 2 years
FERRARI, VOLKSWAGEN, HUMMER - unlimited kms / 3 years
AUDI, BMW, VOLVO - unlimited kms / 2 years
PORSCHE - unlimited kmks / 4 years
CHRYSLER - 20k kms / 1 year
KIA Picanto - 110k kms / 3 years
KIA Rio, Sorento, Sedona, Pregio & JAGUAR - 20k kms / 3 years
NORKIS Legacy - 6 months

sa US yata, 10 years ang warranty ng Hyundai.. bakit magkaiba pa warranty ng Kia.. wala ba minimum mileage at years ang warranty dito sa pinas..

some of those warranty periods are horrible - 1-2 years??!

hyundai offered the 10-year warranties at great cost to the company basically because their reputation was sh!t in the US market and no one would buy their cars so they had to take extreme measures to salvage that reputation and get consumers to give them another chance.

i remember the hyundai excel. worse car than the yugo - i kid you not

Di naman siguro..... yung ML series daw ng Benz ang worst pag dating sa reliability. Pero masama nga ang track record ng Hyundai before...... sila yata yung sinasabing disposable cars noon e.

I'm sure na 3 years yung warranty ng Suzuki ko pero not sure about the mileage.... correct me if I'm wrong pero 20K yata (atleast 100K naman sana).

Hehe maybe the discrepancy is due din sa road conditions ng country :-p

AFAIK we are classified as "Extreme Driving Conditions"

**niky** · August 15th, 2005 01:44 PM

3 years, AFAIK for FORD... with 5 year extended warranty available. That's not completely correct.

And the damn 6 month warranty is what kept me firmly away from the Norkis when I was considering it for light cargo work for my press.

wow! extreme driving conditions tsk tsk tsk ... naka naman ... nakakahiya naman kung ganyan tingin sa atin ng mga ibang bansa. Sssh! Parang sinabi mo narin na off-road ang EdSA!

sorry mga sir if may maling info... kinopya ko lang yan sa Buyer's Guide ng C! magazine ..

pero sana man lang ay gawing 100k kms/3 years ang minimum warranty sa lahat ng authorized locally distributed vehicles...
