QUALIFICATION OF UEV WARRANTY

As the 2×2 is a Utility Electric Vehicle (UEV) that can be ridden on and off road, Ubco requires a Pre-Delivery Inspection (PDI) to be carried out prior to customer delivery by an authorised Ubco dealer. To qualify for this warranty, the UEV must be removed from its original packaging, fully set up and assembled, subject to a PDI, road tested, and delivered by an authorised Ubco dealer. The Warranty Registration Form must be signed by both the dealer and the purchaser.

PRODUCTS NOT REQUIRING A PDI

Products that fall within the Power Supply or Accessory categories (excluding trailers) do not require a PDI but do require proof of purchase as a condition of any warranty claim.

GENERAL EXCLUSIONS

This warranty does not cover:

  1. Products used other than in accordance with their intended use or the use instructions / parameters set out in the relevant User Manual;
  2. Products that have been misused, involved in an accident, neglected or abused;
  3. Products used for competition including but not limited to racing or trials;
  4. Products used for rental purposes or any commercial application other than those for which the Product is intended and which have been specifically approved by Ubco;
  5. Products that have been improperly assembled, or where repairs have been made other than by an Ubco certified technician;
  6. Products that have not been maintained or serviced in accordance with the instructions set out in the relevant User Manual;
  7. Products altered or modified in any way from the manufacturer’s specifications;
  8. Parts requiring replacement or repair as a result of normal wear and tear.

The following exclusions also apply:

  • UEV Warranty Exclusions:
    • The planetary gears are considered a wear and tear item and should be regularly inspected and replaced in the event of wear. Wear is related to the level and type of use. Planetary gears and elements of the motor system are designed to protect the main motor. In extreme stress, they may be damaged in order to protect the motor’s integrity;
    • If motor maintenance or repair is performed by a non-Ubco Certified Technician, including if the motor is opened or modified;
    • If any of the control system parameters are modified from those issued by Ubco for public release;
    • If water damage occurs as a result of a UEV being used outside of its intended operation and use. Damage includes, but is not limited to; the following component groups: the external controls, electrical system, motors, battery connections and bearings;
    • If damage is caused by over-torqueing, cross threading, or other damage due to attempted repair by unauthorised service personnel.
  • Power Supply Exclusions:
    • If the Power supply is left in a discharged state;
    • If the Plug connectors (male and female) have not been cleaned and are exposed to dirt, water and other environmental contaminants;
    • If the case has been opened or tampered with;
    • If there has been damage caused to the external case or structure e.g. from dropping or accidents;
    • If used with non-approved or un-certified electrical equipment;
    • If the product has been submerged under water.
CONSUMER LAW

Our goods come with guarantees that cannot be excluded under the Australian Consumer Law. You are entitled to a replacement or refund for a major failure and compensation for any other reasonably foreseeable loss or damage. You are also entitled to have the goods repaired or replaced if the goods fail to be of acceptable quality and the failure does not amount to a major failure.

In the event that the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 applies, this warranty is to be considered as an express guarantee for the purposes of the Act. Where the terms of the warranty and the provisions of the Act conflict, the provisions of the Act will prevail.

MAXIMUM LIABILITY

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Ubco’s maximum liability in contract, tort, equity, statute, regulation or otherwise for any loss, damage, or injury directly or indirectly resulting from any defect in, or non-compliance of, or use of, the Product will not in aggregate exceed the price (excluding GST) for the Product that caused the loss, damage or injury.

OWNERS OBLIGATIONS

Where a User Manual is supplied with a Product, the purchaser of the Product and ultimate end user must review the Manual to understand the operations, limitations, maintenance and care instructions for the Product.
Whilst UEV and Portable Power Supplies have fewer moving parts than a combustion engine vehicle or technology they still require maintenance to ensure continued safe operation. Every Product will need scheduled maintenance and care, to ensure your warranty is maintained. This will increase the Product’s lifespan and reduce life time maintenance.
