How to make a claim

Step 1: Check your warranty is valid

Ensure that you have satisfied all the requirements of the warranty and check that it has not expired or exceeded the mileage limit. If the warranty has passed the expiry date or mileage limit, your warranty will no longer be valid.

Step 2: Raise a claim

Contact the Supplying Dealer by clicking the "Raise A Claim" button and fill out the online form. If your claim is urgent, please call 07485451431.

Step 3: Follow instructions

The Supplying Dealer will advise you on the appropriate course of action to confirm your warranty validity, which may require getting a diagnosis at an Approved Repairer. Authorisation is always required before any repairs are carried out.

Step 4: Investigate the fault

You will be asked to contact the repairer to arrange a convenient date and time for the diagnosis/repair. Depending on the diagnosis, the circumstances of the breakdown, and the claims limit, you may be asked to contribute more, some, or all of the diagnosis/repair costs.

Step 5: Authorise the claim

If your claim is valid, the Supplying Dealer will ask the repairer to submit an invoice with full details of the repair, including all part(s), labour, and VAT. The Supplying Dealer will authorise the claim and pay the repairer the amount due under the policy. You will be responsible for paying any amount over and above the claim limit of the warranty.

Important: Do not authorise any repair work until they confirm that the fault is covered under your warranty.
