COMMENTS

  • Dealers are reimbursed for repairs in excess of the deductible amount paid by the customer under the Company’s Extended Service Plan by submission of a warranty claim form 1863. It is recommended that the “1863s” be clearly identified as Extended Service Plan claims when they are used for this purpose so they may be readily distinguished from regular warranty claims.
