Warranty – Australian Consumer Law
As a consumer, you are entitled to certain guarantees in respect of goods and services purchased from Maxliner Australia. These guarantees are called Consumer Guarantees and are not impacted by the change of mind policy or limited by a defined timeframe. The Australian Consumer Law, however does recognise that the relevant time period may vary by product (or service) depending on the nature of the goods (or service), the price paid and any representations made about the goods (or service).
This warranty is in addition to any rights which you may have under the Australian Consumer Law in the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth) which cannot be excluded by agreement.
Our goods come with guarantees that cannot be excluded under the Australian Consumer Law. You are entitled to a replacement or refund for a major failure and compensation for any other reasonably foreseeable loss or damage. You are also entitled to have the goods repaired or replaced if the goods fail to be acceptable quality and the failure does not amount to a major failure.
Colour Match
Whilst we work closely with many partners and vehicle manufacturers to ensure the best possible colour match on our products, please be aware that a vast number of variations affect the finish. These variations can occur whether the top is ordered in directly from the factory or sprayed by an in-house paint shop.
A number of vehicles are often produced in more than one country using different formulas making an exact match 100% of the time on every colour code impossible.
Other factors such as paint fade formula variance and the texture and material of the product can also affect the colour. For these reasons we cannot guarantee a perfect match on all tops, but assure you that we put every effort in to updating our formulas and finding the best possible variant on each make and model.
Water Ingress
Please note that due to the nature of the products we supply, we cannot guarantee that every product will be 100% waterproof regardless of pricing.
These are effectively bolt on accessories and whilst we take steps to greatly reduce water ingress it is not always possible.
Damaged Goods
If goods are damaged in transit this must be recorded in writing with photos at the time of receipt and forwarded to the company with in 24hrs of receipt of goods.
We cannot accept responsibility for damaged goods if the delivery note is signed and recorded as ‘Received in good condition’.
The goods are insured against damage in transit by Insurers appointed by the company for the benefit of the buyer of the goods.
Any claim, under any circumstances, submitted against these goods which have been purchased by the buyer is subject to a mandatory excess charge of $500 regardless of the claim value.
If goods are found to be faulty or incomplete this needs to be recorded with 3 days of their receipt.
We have to adopt this policy in order for us to claim for damages against our insurers.
