Mitsubishi extends cover for 21 days

Mitsubishi SA says it has extended all active warranties and service plans by 21 days as the country went into lockdown over the Covid-19 outbreak.

‘We are 100% committed in doing our share to clamp down on the spread of the deadly coronavirus.

‘All our Mitsubishi dealerships, workshops and service centres will be closed for the duration of the lockdown announced by President Ramaphosa,’ said Nic Campbell, general manager of Mitsubishi Motors SA.

‘However, we realise this might cause a problem for Mitsubishi owners who need to have their vehicles serviced during this time, especially those who have come to the end of their vehicles’ original warranties and would have had them serviced during the lockdown period,’ Campbell said.

‘We have therefore extended all active manufacturer warranties by 21 days so that owners can still have their vehicles repaired as per the policy.’

This, the Japanese firm’s local arm points out, also includes service and maintenance plans, provided the maximum covered distance has not been reached and that all maintenance and services are up to date (and carried out at accredited dealers).

‘If the limit has been reached during the lockdown, each case will be considered on its own merit,’ Campbell added.

The extensions include warranties on replaced components as well as workmanship, normally covered by an additional guarantee, for all Mitsubishi vehicles sold and maintained through the dealership network.
