What is covered under Citroën C3 Aircross manufacturer car warranty?

An in-depth look at what the Citroën C3 Aircross is covered for under its manufacturer warranty.

Car Ownership

Every new Citroën C3 Aircross comes with a 5 year/100 000km paintwork and manufacturer warranty, as well as 24-hour roadside assistance.

 

What your contractual warranty covers:

Other than the restrictions mentioned below, your vehicle's contractual warranty covers the repair or replacement, free of charge, of the parts recognised to be faulty by Citroën or its representative as well as the labour necessary to repair the vehicle. This operation may be performed using either new parts, standard exchange parts or parts in direct warranty. Automatic gearboxes can be refurbished.

In addition, if your vehicle is immobilised because of a breakdown covered by the warranty, Citroën or its representative will cover any costs of repair on the spot or of recovery of your vehicle to the nearest Citroën authorised repairer.

Work carried out under the contractual warranty does not have the effect of extending the warranty. In particular, the replacement of a part during work carried out under warranty does not extend the period of cover of the warranty.

The contractual warranty covering the replaced parts expires on the date of expiry of your vehicle's warranty unless there are contrary legal provisions. However, in case of immobilization of your vehicle equal to or greater than seven consecutive days under this Commercial Warranty and which would not be yours, Commercial Warranty will be extended accordingly.

Parts replaced under the contractual warranty become the property of Citroën.
