As the use of our products is beyond our control, our liability is limited to replacing or refunding the product deemed to be defective.

If the goods show a defect after the initial 6 (six) month period, but are within the manufacturer’s warranty period, Keizin Automotive may send the goods to the manufacturer for repair and the manufacturer will decide whether you will have a valid claim and if so, whether they will repair or replace as well or whether any charges will be levied in accordance with the terms of the warranty. All goods repaired in terms hereof will carry a further 3 (three) month warranty which runs concurrently with the 6 (six) month period but may serve to extend the warranty beyond the original 6 month period where the 3 months expire after the 6 month period.
If the goods become defective once the manufacturer’s warranty has expired, we will endeavour to arrange with the manufacturer or its agents to repair the goods but bear no responsibility for their failure to do so.
No chargeable repairs will be done without the customer’s approval of a quotation first. Customers must keep proof of repairs.
