Limited Lifetime Warranty

All OZtec Shock Absorbers are covered by a limited lifetime warranty, which is available to the original retail purchaser only.

While all products of this type gradually wear out with use, OZtec Shock Absorbers (OZtec Suspension) warrant that their shock absorbers will be free from defects in workmanship and materials for as long as the original retail purchaser owns the vehicle on which the shock absorbers were originally installed.

How to claim:

An OZtec Warranty Assessment Form, which can be found on page 304 of this catalogue, or obtained by contacting OZtec Suspension, must be completed and forwarded with a copy of proof of purchase to the stockist you purchased the goods from.

What are your obligations?

It is the original retail purchaser’s responsibility to retain proof of purchase for the duration of ownership of the vehicle. You may be required to send the claimed shock absorber to OZtec Suspension for warranty assessment.

What OZtec endeavour to do:

Upon receipt of a fully completed warranty assessment form and proof of purchase, OZtec Suspension will repair any OZtec shock absorber deemed defective in material or workmanship only, or replace the defective shock absorber with new shock absorber of OZtec’s design. OZtec will not pay for the removal or installation of the shock absorber under the terms of warranty.
