Whispbar 5 Year Warranty (EU)
At Whispbar we pride ourselves on ensuring that all our products are designed, tested and
manufactured to the highest quality standards. Additionally, all Whispbar products sold in
the EU have a 5 year warranty on materials and workmanship.
I. Covered Goods and Scope
Whispbar will warranty load carrier systems, roof boxes and accessories produced by Whispbar and
sold under the brand name Whispbar up to five years from the date of the delivery of the product to
the original retail purchaser to be free from defect in materials or workmanship.
Subject to the limitations and exclusions below, Whispbar will remedy defects in material or
workmanship during the warranty period, by repairing or replacing (at Whispbar's option) the
defective component(s) without charge for parts or labor to the original purchaser. The original retail
purchaser will be responsible for the cost of returning the component(s)/product(s) to the original
Whispbar retailer. In order for any remedies to be considered under this warranty, proof of purchase
in the form of an original purchase invoice or receipt is strictly required.
II. Transfer of the Warranty
The warranty is only issued to the original retail purchaser and is not transferable.
III. Limitation of Warranty Claims
No warranty is given for defects resulting from conditions beyond Whispbar's control including, but
not limited to, normal wear and tear, misuse, overloading, modifications or repairs not performed or
authorized by Whispbar, or from failure to assemble, mount or use the load carrier or accessory(s) in
accordance with written Whispbar instructions, guidelines and safety text.
Further, no warranty is given for defects caused by accidents, unlawful vehicle operation, or defects
in the vehicle upon which the product is installed.
In addition, no warranty is given for defects caused by the users' failure to properly secure cargo as
recommended by Whispbar.
Repair or replacement of the defective Whispbar product is the original purchaser's exclusive
remedy under the warranty. All consequential and incidental damages are excluded under this
warranty. Damage to the user's vehicle, cargo or to any other person or property is excluded.
IV. Unaffected Statutory Claims
The above provisions do not restrict the purchaser's or third parties' statutory rights according to the
relevant compulsory national law. Nor do they affect the purchaser's right towards the dealer from
the purchase contract concluded between the two parties. In particular this shall apply for warranty
rights according to the applicable national law which remain in full, apart from the fact that the
warranty case occurs and the warranty is claimed or not.
