Runva Warranty & Returns
Runva Limited Lifetime Warranty
Runva offer a limited lifetime warranty to the original purchaser of the winch. The winch can have only been used as a recreational recovery winch. The limited lifetime warranty covers against manufacturing defects in workmanship and materials on all mechanical components. Electrical components consisting of motors, solenoids, wiring, remotes, wire connectors and associated parts have a limited five (5) year warranty. Steel cable and Synthetic Winch rope have no applicable warranty after initial use, unless specified otherwise by Runva Winch Distribution PTY Limited (this will be at the discretion of Runva Winch Distribution PTY Limited).
The warranty does not apply to the finish of the winch, normal wear and tear, and/or if the winch has been damaged by accident, abuse, misuse, collision, overloading, modification, misapplications, improper installation or improper service.
The owner will be responsible for removing the winch and returning it to an approved Runva service agent. All freight charges to and from the repair agent must be paid for by the owner. If the fault is found to be covered under warranty we will send the winch back to the owner at our expense. Runva Winch Distribution PTY Limited will not be liable for any installation costs.
At times it may be quicker to simply send out a part that is required to fix an issue, whether under warranty or not. If the problem is deemed to be covered under waranty we will cover the freight to send the required parts out.Runva Winch Distribution PTY Limited will repair or replace any or all winch parts, which after inspection are determined to be defective and deemed under warranty. Runva electric winches are intended for recreational self-recovery usage only.The warranty will be void if the winch is used in commercial or industrial applications.
Runva Winch Distribution PTY Limited will not be liable for any installation or removal fees, whether or not the winch is under warranty. The owner must pay for all freight charges relating to the warranty claim unless we agree to cover it.
