A MORE comprehensive engine warranty coverage has been announced by Cummins.

Although the basic warranty period is unaltered at 160,000km (100,000 miles), 3,600 hours running time or one year (whichever is the soonest), labour costs in carrying out remedial work under the warranty are now reimbursed for the whole period.

Previously, labour costs were covered in the first 80,000km (50,000 miles), 1,800 hours or one year.

Reimbursement for the cost of replacement of Cumminsmanufacturered parts is covered in full, as previously, during, the complete warranty period.

Consumable items — oil, anti-freeze and filters — lost or contaminated through a warranty-covered defect are now replaced at Cummins' expense during the basic warranty.

Cummins' extended warranty period of 480,000km (300,000 miles), 10,800 hours or three years, whichever is the soonest, covering all cylinder blocks and crankshafts is now increased in scope to cover, additionally, all connecting rods.

Fuel system problems which become apparent — through low engine power or other symptoms — within the first 80,000km (50,000 miles), 1,800 hours or 180 days, whichever is the soonest, are now considered for rectification at Cummins' expense. The previous coverage extended only to 24,000km (15,000 miles).
