Limited Warranty
This limited warranty is extended only to you, the original purchaser, and not to anyone who may purchase your vehicle from you during the term of the warranty. Pacific Highway Auto Repair warrants that the repairs and services performed at their location will be free from defects in materials and workmanship for the time and mileage denoted on the bottom of your paid invoice, whichever comes first, measured from the date of the first repair and the odometer reading shown on the original repair order. Warranty repair costs shall in no case exceed the costs of the original related repair or service. If there is a defect in either materials or workmanship within the warranty period, Pacific Highway Auto Repair shall have the option to either perform remedial service work at no charge to you, replace the defective warranted part(s) without charge to you, or refund to you the entire charge for the warranted repairs, minus any previous refunds or credits. Warranty liability is for replacement of failed parts only. If you are less than 25 miles away from Pacific Highway Auto Repair, you must return your vehicle to Pacific Highway Auto Repair.
