Volvo Selekt Exchange Guarantee

- Terms and Conditions -

Subject to the following terms, any Volvo Selekt car purchased from an authorised Volvo dealer may be exchanged for another vehicle ('The replacement vehicle') from the same dealer, provided that:

• The Volvo Selekt car is returned to the Volvo dealer within 30 days of the delivery date and
• The Volvo dealer is satisfied that the customer is a private purchaser (and not a trade purchaser or otherwise) and
• The vehicle has covered no more than 1,500 miles since the delivery to the customer and
• The Volvo dealer, at his absolute discretion, is satisfied that the Volvo Selekt car is in the same condition as at the time of delivery to the customer and
• The Volvo dealer is satisfied that the customer owns the vehicle and is fully entitled to exchange it under this agreement and
• The Volvo Selekt car has not been involved in any accident, or been notified or altered so that the car no longer conforms to its original specification, or has been used for racing, trials, rallies, competitive events or for any purpose other than normal private or commercial use.

The customer may choose any vehicle as the replacement vehicle, provided that:

• It is of an equal or higher price to the Volvo Selekt vehicle and
• It is readily available from the Volvo Dealer’s stock or another source.

Before any exchange is effected the customer shall be responsible for making all the necessary arrangements relating to terminating, transferring to, taking out or otherwise dealing with the financing arrangements for the purchase of the Volvo Selekt car and the Replacement vehicle. Any exchange shall be subject to the Volvo dealer being satisfied with such arrangements.

Where the customer wishes to exchange the Volvo Selekt for a vehicle of higher price, the exchange will not take place until the customer has paid the price difference.

The customer will be solely responsible for any additional costs incurred in the exchange for licensing or insurance. Any such costs must be paid in full prior to completion of the exchange.

Only one exchange shall take place and the Volvo 30 day 1,500 mile exchange commitment shall not apply to any replacement vehicle.

This agreement does not affect any statutory rights.

Volvo Selekt Warranty

Only Volvo retailers can offer the Volvo Selekt Warranty – one of the most comprehensive warranties available. It covers all key mechanical and electrical components.

The Volvo Selekt 12-month unlimited mileage warranty comes as standard on all models up to ten years old with less than 100,000 miles. And it covers you across Europe, giving you peace of mind wherever you are.

NOTE: Vehicles under 3 years old will have the balance of the manufacturer warranty in place unless the car is between 24 and 36 months old in which case the following Volvo Selekt Warranty cover will take over at the point the original Volvo warranty expires.

What's Covered

Volvo’s Selekt Warranty covers the cost or replacement of any factory-fitted mechanical or electrical component which suffers a sudden mechanical or electrical failure. The only exceptions are listed under the section below headed “This warranty does not cover”. Mechanical or electrical failure means the failure of a component, causing a sudden stoppage of its function, for a reason other than wear and tear, normal deterioration or negligence.

This warranty does not cover: spark plugs, auxiliary drive belts, exhaust system and diesel particulate filter (catalytic converters are covered), clutch frictional material, brake shoes, pads and discs, lamps (LED lamps are covered providing at least 50% of the lighting has failed), bulbs (Bi-Xenon bulbs are covered), fuses, batteries, paintwork, body panels, body seals and weather strips, handles and hinges, cosmetic finishes, carpets and trim, upholstery, glass, wiper blades, wheels, tyres and the adjustment of any component, servicing, maintenance and normal wear and tear.

In the event of a successful claim, we’ll also provide a contribution towards recovery charges, replacement vehicle hire, overnight hotel expenses, emergency travel and consequential damage (Warranty Terms and Conditions apply). Cover is also extended to the continent of Europe for UK residents.

IMPORTANT: Vehicles should be serviced in accordance with the Volvo servicing schedule by an authorised Volvo repairer. Failure to do so may invalidate this warranty. Leeway of one month or 1,000 miles is permitted. Should you have any doubts concerning the service requirements of your Volvo, please contact your retailer for clarification

MOT Test Cover

For added peace of mind all Volvo Selekt cars have MOT Test Cover included. That means that regardless how young or old your Volvo Selekt Approved used car is, when the next MOT test is due, it is covered for the majority of items which may cause a test failure. Click on the link below for full details.

Volvo MOT Test Cover protects against the cost of repair, replacement and/or adjustment to the vehicle of the specified parts listed below which are covered as a direct consequence of such parts being cited in a ‘notification of a refusal to issue an MOT certificate’ (form VT30) prepared during the period of the cover, as causing the vehicle to fail its MOT test. Accident damage is not covered.

This Volvo MOT Test Cover only applies to a qualifying failure item (see list below) resulting from the next due MOT Test after the vehicle is purchased as a Volvo Selekt car. Only one Volvo MOT Test claim is permissible on any one Volvo Selekt Package registered.

Lighting Equipment

Steering and Suspension

Manual and power steering units, suspension drag links, track rods/ends, transmission shafts, CV joints and boots, shock absorbers, road springs, wishbones, swivel joints, mountings, sub frames and wheel bearings are covered for failure due to: Wear, seizure, leakage, and insecurity.

Fuel System

Throttle body, fuel injection system, ECU are covered for failure to meet MOT exhaust gas emission standards (actual tuning and adjustments or any damage caused by contaminated fuel and/or inappropriate fuel are not covered under this section). Fuel leaks are not covered.

Braking System

Brake master cylinder, wheel cylinders, calipers discs, drums, load compensator, ABS modulator/sensors/computers/, brake pipes, hoses and cables are covered for failure due to wear, leakage, seizure, splits/cracks, corrosion and adjustment.

Maximum Claim Liability

Where liability for the cost of repairs is admitted under this MOT Test Warranty the Warranty Holder will be reimbursed repair costs to a maximum aggregate of £750 (including VAT) during each period of MOT Test Warranty.

IMPORTANT: The MOT Test Warranty does not cover accidental or malicious damage or neglect. See terms and conditions.

This MOT Test Warranty Does Not Cover:

• Any parts which have not actually failed, which are replaced or reported during routine servicing and/or repair of other parts which have failed
• Any component covered by any other existing warranties or insurances
• Any loss to the Warranty Holder in excess of the maximum claim liability
• Liability which attracts by virtue of an agreement but which would not have attached in the absence of the said agreement
