Warranties
Warranty Policies:
At Off Road Tents we strictly adhere to the different warranty policies from each manufacturer.
The warranties can vary from different time frames, depending on the product and the manufacturer or brand. If you have a question about the warranty policy or the warranty of the product you are about to purchase, or have already purchased, please send us an email to: claims@offroadtents.com
Furthermore, we adhere to the warranty policies stated by each manufacturer. We are extremely strict in following their guidelines. If you need help, we will advice, help and assist in placing the claim for you, or help you in the process.
It's important to understand that according to the different guidelines, Off Road Tents and the manufacturer reserve their right to repair or replace, at the manufacturer's discretion, any defects during the warranty period. In the event that the tent or item must be returned to the manufacturer's facility for inspection, the owner must assume the cost and liability of freight. In some cases, Off Road Tents or the manufacturer may choose to source a local repair shop in the city where the customer is located, however, only if the repair shop will guarantee the repair. All repairs done by a local repair shop must be approved in writing by the manufacturer before any repairs are completed. In other cases, Off Road Tents or the manufacturer may choose to ship a replacement part or parts to the customer, who is seen as capable of installing.

HOW TO OBTAIN WARRANTY SERVICE:
In the event that a substantial defect in materials or workmanship is found to exist in parts warranted by the manufacturer, Off Road Tents or the manufacturer will bear the cost of the repair or replacement of such defective materials or workmanship, provided that the owner:

(B) Follows instructions from Off Road Tents on how to get approved repairs or replacements. (Off Road Tents will determine if there is an authorized service center within reasonable distance of the owner.

(C) Schedules an appointment and promptly takes the product to the authorized service center.
WARRANTY EXTENSION:
What Is The Warranty Extension By Off Road Tents?
It is an extension of the exact original wanrranty that the product you are purchasing holds. Off Road Tents offers the paid service of extending by 1 or 3 years the original extension of your product, and will cover it exactly in the same way. For example, if the product has a warranty covering a certain feature such as a hinge, then Off Road Tents will cover that exact same feature. If the warranty doesn’t cover normal wear and tear, Off Road Tents won’t cover it.
To understand the exact clauses, please read below.
WARRANTY EXTENSION: The duration of any extended warranty for your product will be for the period you purchase, commencing on the start date of the original base warranty. Any extension must be purchased during the product’s original base warranty (for example if the original warranty is 1 year and the Warranty Extension is purchased for 3 years, then the total number of years for the Warranty Extension is 3 years). Parts consumed through use of the product for example an LED light life, batteries, and normal use wear and tear of any product are not covered by this Service. Normal use wear and tear are for example scratches to a rack or base of a tent, and discoloring of fabric after exposure to the elements.
The Warranty Extension provided by Off Road Tents doesn’t cover any damages inflicted by an accident or by mistreating the product. Such damages can be a tear to any fabric caused by a branch or forcing the fabric itself. The Warranty Extension applies to the same exact conditions the original warranty already covers. To make sure you know what the original warranty of your product covers, feel free to read it, or ask us for it. We are happy to provide it, so you understand fully what your warranty covers and what the Off Road Tents Warranty Extension will cover.
The Warranty Extension provided by Off Road Tents applies only for items purchased and used in the United States of America. Any item used outside of the United States of America doesn’t apply for any warranty extension.
