WARRANTY

 

All machines are supplied with a Return to Base (RTB) Warranty

If you would prefer to fit the parts yourself or have them fitted elsewhere, then we will provide replacement parts free of charge (subject to the warranty conditions below).

 

New Machine Retail Sales Warranty

We would like our customers to have complete peace of mind, so all fully assembled products sold by Storm Buggies (Performance Toys Ltd) are supplied with a RETURN TO BASE warranty for the original purchaser on both main parts and labour costs.

This is a guarantee against manufacturing structural or mechanical defects and within the periods stated, we will replace non wear and tear parts, providing the part is found by the company to be defective. Please see guidelines below for a breakdown of parts deemed wear and tear parts and so not covered under warranty. In some cases, defective parts must be sent back to the company for inspection if asked for, prior to us sending out replacement parts. The purchaser must pay the postage cost for the returned part but this cost will be refunded once the new part is dispatched. We have the final decision with regards to replacement parts, no correspondence will be entered into.

By this consumer guarantee, Performance Toys Ltd guarantees the product to be free from defective materials and workmanship for the stated period of warranty, from the date of purchase as shown on the invoice. Should the machine fail due to neglect, unreasonable use, misuse, accident, crash, corrosion, alterations, modifications, lack of regular service & maintenance (PRI) or failure to follow instructions properly then the part will not be covered and all warranty will be void.

Servicing must be carried out in line with our product recommendations. If this is not carried out then this will invalidate the warranty.

Please note that there is NO WARRANTY for any product that is used commercially, for racing, as part of a venture, loaned, resold or rented out by the purchaser.

Each and every time our product is used, it should ONLY be driven once an adult is 100% confident that they have completed their Pre Ride Inspection (PRI). This information can be found in the user manual supplied but can also be emailed upon request.

Before buying a machine from us please bear in mind that they are not the same as cars and so will require regular maintenance and complete safety check over. Failure to do this could result in a number of avoidable issues and machine down time.
