PANEL VAN CONVERSION
MOTORHOME WARRANTY
All the illustrations and descriptive matter in
this handbook are intended to give a general
idea of the motorhome. Changing market
and supply situations and our policy of
continuous product development may prevent
us from maintaining the exact specifications
detailed in this handbook. We therefore
reserve the right to alter specifications as
materials and conditions demand.
Dealers are not agents of Swift Group Limited
("Swift") and have absolutely no authority
to bind the manufacturer by any express or
implied undertaking or representation.
Your panel van conversion motorhome has
three warranties:
Base Vehicle Warranty – provided by
either Fiat or Peugeot
Your vehicle is a panel van conversion
motorhome which utilises either a Fiat or
Peugeot base vehicle. For a panel van
conversion motorhome, Swift takes a panel
van as supplied by either Fiat or Peugeot and
fits out the interior of the van for habitation.
Either Fiat or Peugeot provide a manufacturer's
warranty for the base vehicle as supplied to
Swift by them. For any issues with the base
vehicle warranty please contact your local Fiat/
Peugeot dealer. This Motorhome Warranty
does not cover any parts of your motorhome
that are covered by the Fiat or Peugeot
manufacturer's warranty. Your base vehicle
warranty is subject to the terms and conditions
contained in the Fiat or Peugeot handbook
supplied with the base vehicle and the vehicle
must be serviced in accordance with Fiat or
Peugeot requirements.
SuperSure Warranty – provided by Swift
For all parts or fittings of your panel van
conversion motorhome other than the Fiat/
Peugeot base vehicle, Swift will repair (or at is
option, replace) any defective parts or fittings
for 3 years from the date of purchase (or hire
purchase) subject to conditions, terms and
exclusions below.
Panel Van Conversion Body Shell Warranty
(“Body Shell Warranty”) – provided by
Swift
Swift will repair (or at its option, replace) any
defects with the panel van conversion to
the body shell for 3 years from the date of
purchase (or hire purchase), subject to the
conditions, terms and exclusions below. This
Motorhome Warranty does not cover any parts
of your motorhome that are covered by the
Fiat or Peugeot manufacturer's warranty.
Conditions for the SuperSure and Body
Shell Warranties
1. You must ensure that the habitation
part of your motorhome has an Annual
Service (see clause 2 below) within 90 days
before or 60 days after each anniversary
of the original date of purchase. In order
to preserve your SuperSure and Body
Shell Warranties the third Annual Service
must, however, be carried out before the
expiry of the 36 month period from the
original date of purchase. If you have not
performed an Annual Service then Swift
will not be obliged to perform any work
under the applicable warranty . Original
VAT invoices must be retained as proof
that Annual Service have been carried out.
2. The Annual Service on the body shell and
habitation area must be carried out in
accordance with the requirements in this
handbook. You will be responsible for
any charges made for an Annual Service.
If the Annual Service is performed by an
authorised Swift Group Service Centre
then Swift warrants that the Annual
Service has been performed correctly.
If the Annual Service is performed by
an unauthorised repairer or service
centre then if the Annual Service has
not been performed in accordance with
the requirements in this handbook and/
or work has been performed on your
motorhome that is defective or faulty,
then Swift will not be obliged to perform
any work under this Warranty (insofar as
it relates to defective or faulty work or
defective Annual Service).

3. All new motorhomes must be registered
with Swift within 6 weeks of purchase as
new.
4. The benefit of the SuperSure and Body
Shell Warranties may be transferred to
a new owner if the motorhome is re-
sold, provided that the motorhome has
been serviced in accordance with the
requirements of this handbook, and details
of the change of ownership have been
supplied to Swift using the change of
ownership form set out in this handbook
as soon as reasonably practicable after the
change.
5. If any repairs are identified as being
necessary to the body shell or habitation
areas during an Annual Service or
otherwise, Swift will only pay for Warranty
work performed by an authorised Swift
Group Service Centre. The motorhome
must be made available to an authorised
Swift Group Service Centre within 6 weeks
of the date the repair need was identified
for the work to be carried out. The cost
of transporting, towing or moving the
motorhome by any means to or from the
place of repair is the responsibility of the
owner.
6. The SuperSure and Body Shell Warranties
only apply to motorhomes purchased
and used primarily within the UK, which
means that the motorhome is not used
for continuous journeys outside of the UK
of longer than 90 days per journey. Please
refer to the Fiat or Peugeot handbook for
use of the base vehicle outside the UK.
Terms
