This limited warranty does not cover defects or damage caused by abuse, misuse, road debris, accidents or
improper installation, maintenance or service, or use in non-standard vehicle applications that have not been
approved by the Company or which do not meet Company specifications and guidelines (i.e. Bendix warranty
coverage requires that the use or application of the products must be approved pursuant to standard OEM and
Company engineering approvals). Normal wear and tear of brake pads or rotors (including the cast tone
ring) is not covered under this limited warranty. Boot damage resulting from road hazards or use of improper
replacement tools is not covered under this limited warranty. Any damages resulting from the use of non-OE
approved replacement components, including brake pads, rotors or brake chambers are not covered under this
limited warranty.
Use of non-Bendix ® brand brake pads, brake chambers, or unapproved brake rotors reduces warranty coverage
to one (1) year unlimited miles for on-highway applications and four (4) months unlimited miles for off-highway
applications. For warranty consideration, return the sets of pads from both ends of the affected axle (road-
side and curb-side sets of brake pads). Please clearly label the parts with the claim number.
Product:
Product claimed to be defective must be returned freight prepaid via the Original Equipment (OE) dealership or
authorized Company distributor within thirty (30) days after the date any defect is first discovered. Unauthorized
repairs will void this limited warranty.
The Company will inspect the product and make the final determination as to whether the product is covered under
the terms of this limited warranty. When a warranty claim is allowed, the Company’s responsibility is limited — at
the Company’s sole option — to repair or replace the defective product with a remanufactured exchange unit. The
replacement unit will be warranted for the remaining time period, mileage, or hours of the original warranty.
Labor:
For the first twelve (12) months, 100,000 miles (160,000 kilometers), or 3,600 hours, whichever comes first, the
Company will reimburse at its current labor rate applied to the standard hours allowed in Removal and Replacement
Schedule (BW1322) when the Company determines that a defective product was installed. Labor coverage is
included only when Bendix ® brand brake pads, rotors, and brake chambers are used.
THIS LIMITED WARRANTY IS IN LIEU OF AND EXCLUDES ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESSED OR
IMPLIED, ARISING BY OPERATION OF LAW OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF
MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND IN NO EVENT WILL THE COMPANY BE
LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, PROGRESSIVE, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES INCLUDING,
BUT NOT LIMITED TO, COSTS INCURRED FOR SERVICE CALLS, TOWING, OR DOWNTIME.
