THULE will warranty all THULE brand car rack systems and its accessories manufactured by THULE during
the time that an original retail purchaser owns the product. This warranty terminates if a purchaser transfers
the product to any other person.
Subject to the limitations and exclusions described in this warranty, THULE will remedy defects in materials
or workmanship by repairing or replacing, at its option, a defective product without charge for parts or labor.
In addition, THULE may elect, at its option, not to repair or replace a defective product but rather issue to
a purchaser a refund equal to the purchase price paid for the product or a credit to be used toward the
purchase of a new THULE load carrier system.
No warranty is given for defects caused by normal wear and tear, cosmetic rust, scratches, accidents,
unlawful vehicle operation, or modification of, or any types of repair of, a load carrier system other than those
authorized by THULE.
No warranty is given for defects resulting from conditions beyond THULE's control including, but not limited
to, misuse, overloading, or failure to assemble, mount or use the product in accordance with THULE's written
instructions or guidelines included with the product or made available to the purchaser.
In the event that a product is defective, the purchaser should contact the THULE dealer from whom the
product was purchased or an Authorized Thule Service Center. If the dealer or Authorized Thule Service
Center is not able to correct the defect, the purchaser should contact THULE in writing or by phone using the
contact information listed at the bottom of this page.
In the event that a product needs to be returned to THULE, a THULE technician at the address or telephone
number listed below will provide the purchaser with the appropriate mailing address and any additional
instructions. Please note that the purchaser will be responsible for the cost of mailing the product to THULE
and that proof of purchase in the form of an original purchase invoice or receipt and a detailed description of
the defect must be included in the mailing.
