Liability for defects and ŠKODA Warranty for new cars

Materials defect liability

Your ŠKODA Partner, as a vendor, is liable to you for material damage to your

new ŠKODA car, ŠKODA Genuine Parts or ŠKODA Genuine Accessories in ac-

cordance with statutory regulations and the purchase agreement.

ŠKODA warranty for new cars

As well as the materials defect liability, ŠKODA AUTO a.s. grants you the

ŠKODA warranty for new cars (hereinafter referred to as “ŠKODA warranty),”

according to the conditions described below.

As part of the ŠKODA warranty, ŠKODA AUTO will ensure the following serv-

ices.

▶

Free repair of faulty components or vehicle defects that occur within two

years from the start of the ŠKODA warranty.

▶

Free repair of paintwork defects on your vehicle that occur within three

years from the start of the ŠKODA warranty.

▶

Free repair of rust perforation to the bodywork of your vehicle that occurs

within twelve years from the start of the warranty. Only rust perforation of

body panels from the inside to the outside is included in the definition of rust

perforation on bodywork and covered by the ŠKODA warranty.

The start of warranty is the date on which the first buyer purchases the new

cars from the ŠKODA Partner

1)

. This date must be noted accordingly by the

ŠKODA Partner in the Owner´s Manual for your vehicle » Documentation of

vehicle handover.

Vehicle repairs may be carried out either by replacing the faulty part or by re-

pairing it. Replaced parts become the property of the ŠKODA Service Partner.

There shall be no further claims arising from the ŠKODA warranty. In particu-

lar, there shall be no claims for replacement, cancellation, provision of a cour-

tesy vehicle for the duration of repairs or compensation for damages.

The ŠKODA warranty is valid at any ŠKODA service partner.

One of the conditions for service from the ŠKODA warranty is that all service

work has been carried out in a timely and adequate manner and in accordance

with ŠKODA AUTO provisions. It must be proven that service work has been

carried out properly and in accordance with the ŠKODA AUTO provisions

when raising a claim from the ŠKODA warranty. In the event of a missed serv-

ice or failure to carry out a service according to the ŠKODA AUTO provisions,

you may still be entitled to warranty claims as long as you can prove that the

missed service or the failure to carry out a service according to the ŠKODA

AUTO provisions was not the cause of the defect.

Natural wear and tear to your vehicle is not covered by the ŠKODA warranty.

The ŠKODA warranty also does not cover faults to bodywork, installations or

conversions provided by third-parties, or vehicle faults caused as a result. The

same applies to accessories that are not factory installed and/or delivered.

In addition, this warranty does not apply if the defect was caused by one of the

following:

▶

Unauthorized use, improper handling (e.g. use in racing competitions or over-

loading), improper care and maintenance or unapproved modification to your

vehicle.

▶

Non-compliance with provisions in the Owner's Manual or other factory-sup-

plied instructions.

▶

External causes or influences (e.g. accidents, hail, flooding etc.).

▶

Parts fitted or connected on or in the vehicle whose use has not been ap-

proved by ŠKODA AUTO, or modification of the vehicle in a manner not ap-

proved by ŠKODA AUTO (e.g. tuning).

▶

Damage caused by you that was not immediately seen to by a specialist ga-

rage or was not rectified properly.

It is the customer's responsibility to prove that it was not the cause.

This ŠKODA warranty does not affect the purchaser's statutory rights from

materials defect liability from the vehicle vendor and other potential claims

from product liability laws.

Mobility warranty

The mobility warranty provides a sense of security when travelling in your ve-

hicle.



1)

Due to the requirements of generally binding country-specific regulations,

the date of first registration can be specified instead of the date the vehicle

handover.

5

Liability for defects and ŠKODA Warranty for new cars

If your vehicle should break down during a journey due to an unexpected de-

fect, you can claim services to ensure your continued mobility under the terms

of the mobility warranty, including the following services: Breakdown assis-

tance at the site of the breakdown and towing to a ŠKODA Service Partner,

technical assistance on the phone or on-site commissioning.

If your vehicle is not repaired on the same day, the ŠKODA Service Partner

may provide further services as required, such as replacement transportation

(bus, train etc.) or a courtesy vehicle etc.

More information regarding terms and conditions for the provision of a mobili-

ty warranty for your vehicle can be obtained from your ŠKODA Partner. They

will also provide you with detailed terms and conditions for the mobility war-

ranty with respect to your vehicle. In the event that there is no mobility war-

ranty coverage available for your vehicle, you should check with any ŠKODA

Service Partner about the possibility of a subsequent agreement.

Optional ŠKODA extended warranty

If you opted for a ŠKODA extended warranty when purchasing your new car,

the two-year ŠKODA warranty with regards to all free warranty repairs is ex-

tended by the period you chose or until the chosen mileage limit has been

reached, whichever occurs first.

The previously mentioned paint warranty and the warranty against rust perfo-

ration are unaffected by the ŠKODA extended warranty.

The ŠKODA extended warranty does not apply to external and internal foils.

The information on the detailed conditions of the ŠKODA extended warranty

is provided by your ŠKODA partner.

Note

The ŠKODA extended warranty is only available in some countries.

Liability for defects and ŠKODA Warranty for new cars

Accident data recorder (Event Data Recorder)

The vehicle is equipped with a device that serves as an accident data recorder

(referred to solely as “EDR” from this point). The main purpose of the EDR is

data recording during a traffic accident or other exceptional traffic conditions

(referred to solely as “accident” from this point), where the restraint systems

are activated.

The EDR records the accident in a short time (approximately 10 s), by showing

the following information, for example:

▶

The function of certain vehicle systems,

▶

The driver and passenger seat belt status,

▶

The actuation of the brake and accelerator pedal,

▶

The speed of the vehicle at the time of the accident.

The recorded data helps with the analysis of how the vehicle systems were be-

having shortly before, during and shortly after the accident, thereby ensuring

better information regarding the circumstances under which the accident oc-

curred, which lead to material damage and possibly to personal injury.

The data relating to assist systems in the vehicle is then also recorded. In addi-

tion to the information on whether the affected systems were switched on or

off at the relevant time, whether these were only partially available or were in-

active, there is also the possibility of tracking whether these vehicle functions

controlled, accelerated or braked the vehicle during the accident. Depending

on the vehicle equipment, these functions may include, for example:

▶

Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)

▶

Lane Assist

▶

Park Assist

▶

Parking aid

▶

Emergency brake function (Front Assist)

EDR data is only recorded if an accident causes the restraint systems to be ac-

tivated. Under normal driving conditions there is no data recording and there is

no audio or video recording of the vehicle interior or the vehicle environment.

Personal data such as name, gender, age or place where the accident occurred

is also not stored in the EDR. However, third parties such as law enforcement

authorities may use certain resources to connect EDR content to other data

sources, and therefore deduce the identification of some of the people in-

volved in the accident when investigating the causes of the accident.

Reading out the EDR requires special equipment with specific access authori-

zation and a legally prescribed diagnostic connection in the vehicle “on-board

diagnostics”), and the ignition will need to be switched on.

ŠKODA AUTO will not read or otherwise process any accident data from the

EDRwithout the approval of the vehicle owner or other person authorised for

use of the vehicle. Exceptions are specified in the contractual arrangements, or

these are subject to generally binding regulations.

Due to the legal requirements, ŠKODA AUTO is required to monitor the quali-

ty and safety of its products, meaning that it is only entitled to use data from

the EDR for monitoring the product on the market, for further research and

development, and to improve the quality of the vehicle's safety systems. For

the purpose of research and development, ŠKODA AUTO will also make data

available to third parties. This is done exclusively in anonymous form, i.e. with-

out any connection to the specific vehicle, the vehicle owner or other author-

ised user.

road safety.

The Owner's Manual applies to all body variants of the vehicle, all related

trations can differ in minor details from your vehicle; they are only intended to

with all vehicles. Changes in terms of supply scope are possible at any time

with regard to design, equipment and technology. The information listed in the

to press.

Therefore legal claims cannot be made based on the technical data, illustra-

tions and information contained in the Owner's Manual.
