This Warranty is an agreement between us and yourself personally and is not transferable under any circumstances. If an item is sold to a third party by the original purchaser, then this Warranty is terminated immediately for that item, and the original purchaser shall make no claims or be eligible for any claims on behalf of the new owner.

The warranty is not transferable to a subsequent purchaser if the Trailer or Caravan is sold by the original purchaser during the warranty period. Your Century Camper Trailer Pty Ltd comes with guarantees that cannot be excluded under the Australian Consumer Law.

The benefits within our Warranty are in addition to other rights and remedies under the Australian Consumer Law in relation to this product.

– Accident,
– Fair wear & tear,
– Misuse, neglect, or abuse,
– Storm damage or other acts of Nature,
– Unauthorized repairs made or attempted.

All servicing must Initially be conducted in the first Three months or 500kms and then six months routinely or every 1000kms. A record of all service work must be retained for any potential warranty claims within the first twelve months.

Any items sold as “factory seconds”, or “damaged” items are sold on an “as is” basis. Due to the nature of such items, i.e being “factory seconds” or “damaged”, it is reasonable to expect that some imperfections or flaws may exist even where it is not initially apparent. While we will notify you of any defects or damage to such goods of which we are aware, you purchase the goods on notice that we may not be aware of all such defects and damage, and that the price you pay for the goods includes a discount to allow for the risk of you discovering further defects or damage.

We do not make any representations as to the quality or fitness of any goods sold on this basis, and it is a term of the contract for the purchase of any such goods that the customer has made their own inquiries and inspections and relies exclusively upon those inquiries and inspections in deciding to make that purchase.

The owner or any authorized pick-up person (including freight company’s drivers) has the responsibility to check the number of products that match your order and make sure all products are in satisfactory condition. If any products are not in satisfactory condition or any items missing when you pick them up, we will change them for you. But after the products leave Century Camper Trailer Pty Ltd.’s business address, Century Camper Trailer Pty Ltd will not accept any claims in regard to those products, not in satisfactory condition or missing items.

It is the owner’s responsibility to inspect and maintain the trailer. Before use must check tires condition, nuts, bolts, moving positions, safety chain, lights, and the overall trailer condition for any banding, leakage, breakage, abnormal noise. Check the trailer condition every 80km. Re-grease all bolts and bearings every 500km.

Any broken parts that need replacing under the warranty period you must follow Century Camper Trailer Pty Ltd warranty terms and conditions. Bring the broken part to us before replacement part is supplied. Or the replacement parts will be charged.

You agree that, to the greatest extent permitted by law, we shall not be liable for consequential or special damages of any kind, including aggravated, punitive, or exemplary damages. Without limiting the generality of this clause, you agree that our liability shall be limited in all cases to the amount you paid for the products underlying a claim.
