Porsche Asia Pacific is introducing its enhanced Porsche Approved Warranty programme in the region – including Brunei – being among the first automotive brands to roll out a warranty offer of such extended duration.
From today, the Porsche Approved Warranty programme will extend its warranty period to 15 years.
According to the German sports carmaker, all Porsche customers will now be able to increase their warranty coverage period up to the 15th year without any change to the warranty prices, coverage and registration process.
Previously, all Porsche vehicles are limited to a maximum of 10 years warranty period.
“When it comes to the trust of our customers in the quality of Porsche vehicles, we are always raising the standard. We are confident in the reliability and performance of the vehicles, hence we decided to expand the duration of the guarantee, emphasising our promise in quality. This makes Porsche Approved Warranty a unique offer in the automotive industry and we are proud to be one of the first brands to introduce a warranty period of 15 years,” said General Manager of QAF Eurokars Lahiru de Silva.
Porsche Approved Warranty was launched globally in 2002 and is available in more than 90 countries. The warranty is redeemable worldwide and covers all of the vehicle’s components.
Moreover, should the vehicle be sold to a new owner, the remaining duration of the warranty is automatically transferred to the new owner.
The Porsche Approved Warranty provides comprehensive coverage, comparable with the Porsche New Car Guarantee, except for wear and tear.
Only genuine parts are used if any repair or improvement works are required, offering the highest level of quality and security to customers. To maintain excellent standards, all labour and diagnosis are carried out by certified Porsche technicians.
The Porsche Approved Warranty can be purchased each time for a period of 12 months provided the vehicle is no more than 14-year-old and has a mileage of less than 200,000 kilometres.
For vehicles that are less than 13-year-old, an optional warranty period of 24 months is also available.
