We work with caravan manufacturers daily on warranty repairs, and we’ve seen how small mistakes can lead to denied claims. Don’t let that happen to you!  Buckle up, because this is caravan warranty wisdom you won’t want to miss!

 

     1. Read Your Warranty Carefully

First things first, grab that warranty document and give it a good once-over. We understand that reading legal jargon isn’t exactly a party, but trust us, this is crucial. Take the time to read through your warranty, paying close attention to:

  • What’s Covered

Know which parts and systems are protected under warranty.

  • Timeframes

Warranties have expiration dates, so be aware of when your coverage ends.

  • Conditions

Manufacturers often require proper maintenance for claims to be approved.

 

     2. Follow the Manufacturer’s Instructions

The manufacturer’s instructions are not just for a show! They provide clear instructions on how to use your caravan and what to do if you encounter a problem. Not following these instructions could void your warranty. If you’re unsure about anything, contact your dealer or repair centre for clarification.

 

     3. Stick to Your Servicing Schedule

Just like a car, your caravan needs regular servicing to stay in top condition. Most manufacturers require:

  • First Service

New caravans typically require a first service around the three-month mark or after your first 1,000 kilometres, after your first shake-down trip.

  • Annual Servicing

Every 12 months or 10,000km after that to ensure everything remains in top shape.

Skipping these essential check-ups is a big no-no. It could give your manufacturer a reason to deny your warranty claim, so keep up with your routine maintenance!

 

     4. Report Problems Immediately

Caravans are handmade, just like houses, and sometimes little niggles can pop up after handover. If you notice anything wrong, don’t panic! Log the problem and notify your dealer immediately. This creates a record of when the issue was found, making it easier to get it fixed under warranty before it becomes a bigger problem.

 

Pro Tip: Keep records of everything! This might seem like overkill, but trust me, it’s worth it. Keep all your service records, receipts for parts, and any communication with the dealer or manufacturer.
