Ten year body integrity warranty

Elddis, Compass, Xplore and Buccaneer products are covered against water ingress damage for 10 years from the original date of purchase of a new product. This applies to water ingress through any permanently sealed seam joints.

In order to comply with the terms of the above cover the following conditions must be met:

Reporting a fault

In the unlikely event that you experience a problem with your caravan or motorhome please contact your retailer.

It is with the retailer that your contract of sale exists and consequently they have the responsibility to ensure any complaints and warranty issues are addressed. Any other approved Elddis, Compass, Xplore and Buccaneer Retailer or Service Centre may carry out work at their convenience or discretion, but are not obliged to do so.

All Elddis, Compass, Xplore and Buccaneer products are classed as portable and therefore all work under warranty requires the caravan or motorhome to be delivered and collected from the selling retailer.

Conditions attached to the warranty cover

 You must retain the original sale invoice for the caravan or motorhome.

• All new caravans and motorhomes must be registered with The Explorer Group Ltd within 6 weeks of purchase as new. Your retailer can forward this information to us. Please keep us informed of any name or address changes by using the Notification of Change to Name and Address form.
• The caravan or motorhome must have an annual service and damp check carried out by an Approved Elddis, Compass, Xplore and Buccaneer Retailer or Service Centre. Original VAT invoices and damp reports must be retained as proof that the annual services have been carried out in accordance with our warranty terms.

Service intervals

• In years 1, 2, and 4 through to 9 the service must be completed no more than 60 days either side of the anniversary of the date of purchase.
• In Years 3 and 10 the service must be completed no more than 60 days before the anniversary of the date of purchase.
• No service interval should exceed 14 months. Failure to service the vehicle within the specified time limits will invalidate the warranty.
• Where an annual service identifies that repairs are necessary the caravan or motorhome must be made available for repair within six weeks of the date of inspection for the purpose of carrying out the repair work. The Explorer Group Ltd reserves the right to inspect the vehicle before work commences.
• Work may only be undertaken by an Approved Elddis, Compass, Xplore and Buccaneer Retailer or Service Centre and only after approval by The Explorer Group Limited (depending upon individual circumstances).
• The Explorer Group Limited will pay the costs of remedial work to the repairer, only after approved work has been carried out. The cost of transporting, towing or moving the caravan by any means to or from the place of repair is the responsibility of the owner.
• The Policy is not retrospective and is applicable to 2012 model year caravans and motorhomes onwards.
• No liability will be accepted for any consequential loss, damage, costs, expenses or other claims for compensation arising which were not reasonably foreseeable by both parties when the caravan was originally purchased.
• No liability will be accepted for damage caused by fair wear and tear, willful damage, negligence or abnormal working conditions.
• No alteration may be made to the original construction.
• In the case of a dispute, The Caravan Club will agree with The Explorer Group Limited the appointment of an independent arbitrator. The Explorer Group Limited will pay for the costs of arbitration, subject to the owner paying a £250 deposit.
• If the arbitrator finds in favour of the customer, then the deposit will be returned. If the arbitrator finds in favour of The Explorer Group Limited, the customer will lose their deposit.
• Where the arbitrator awards a sum of money less than an offer made by The Explorer Group Limited, which has already been rejected by the customer, then their deposit is forfeited.
• In all cases the arbitrator’s decision is final and both parties must agree to abide by the decision.

Exclusions

Warranty cover is not given for caravans and motorhomes if they have been used under any of the following circumstances:

• Used for hire
• Used as a permanent residence
• Towed behind a commercial vehicle
• Used for racing or time trials
• Damage resulting from freezing, accident or fire damage
• Mains electrics
• It is recommended that you have your mains electrics system inspected by a NICEIC approved contractor every 3 years.

Remedial work

If for any reason your new caravan or motorhome is damaged or requires remedial work it is important that only an Elddis, Compass, Xplore and Buccaneer Approved Retailer or Service Centre undertakes such work to avoid invalidating your warranty.

Transfer of ownership

 If you purchase this vehicle as a used vehicle it may be possible to transfer the unexpired term of the warranty cover (up to a maximum of six years commencing at the original date of purchase from new). The warranty cover for a used vehicle commences from the original date of purchase from new and is as follows:

• Three year manufacturer’s warranty
• A maximum of six years’ body integrity warranty

The warranty is subject to the usual terms and conditions’ set out in the handbook and is only transferable on payment of a £75 administration fee. Full documentary evidence that the caravan has been serviced annually should be provided at the time of transfer, in accordance with the terms and conditions of the warranty stated in the handbook. Transfer of ownership must be completed within three months of change of legal ownership. Please complete the Notification of Change of Ownership form in your handbook.

This warranty does not affect the purchaser’s statutory rights. The warranty shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of England and the parties irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England.
