We hope that it is understood that natural wear as well as damage caused by

invalid when the vehicle is damaged by the use of pa rts and accessories that

requirements.
Paintwork and body warrantyAuthorised Service Centres provide a warranty on bodywork
and paintwork for vehicles sold in the EU.In addition to the warranty conditions for brand new S EAT vehicles (as
detailed in the purchase contract), a defined period warranty i s also provided
covering paintwork and bodywork rusting:•
3 year paintwork warranty following delivery date (ex cept the Alhambra
model).
•
12 years from the date of delivery against bodywork through-rusting (6
years for the Alhambra).
If, however, this type of damage should occur, it w ill be repaired free of charge
including parts and labour by any SEAT Authorised Servi ce Centre in Europe.
Warranty claims will not be accepted in the follow ing circumstances:
•
if damage is caused by external influence or carelessness , or
•
if damage to the body is not repaired promptly and appropriately in
accordance with the manufacturer's in structions using genuine, approved
spare parts and materials, or
•
if perforation rusting is caused by the use of non-genuine p arts and mate-
rials for body repairs and if these repairs were not c arried out in accordance
with the manufacturer's instructions.
If the bodywork is repaired or painted, your Authorised Service Centre will
certify your warranty against through-rusting for th e repaired sections.

requirements, constitute an additional service at your dis posal, offering you
the possibility to update entire assemblies, the most c ommon being: the
short engine block, gearboxes, cylinder heads, contro l units, electrical
elements, etc.
Of course these are Approved parts and, as they have the same class as the
manufacturer parts, they share the same SEAT approv ed spare parts warranty.
