Bosch extends warranty for starters and alternators to three years
Bosch has extended the warranty period for its starters and alternators to three years.
Effective June 1, 2021, the new warranty period covers Newman, Bosch eXchange (BX) and starter and alternator spares parts programmes.
Additionally, the new warranty period is retrospectively applied to products installed in a vehicle during the last three years, Bosch confirmed.
Bosch has more than 100 years’ experience with starters and alternators. The first Bosch alternator was produced in 1913, a year later the first starter was launched onto the market.
The company’s comprehensive product portfolio for starters and alternators also contains units for use with innovative technologies, such as start/stop and highly efficient alternators with an efficiency of up to 80 per cent.
This makes them suitable for a variety of passenger cars, commercial vehicles and off-highway applications. Bosch says the range is constantly being updated and expanded to meet market requirements.
The production of starters and alternators for the aftermarket is subject to the same stringent quality guidelines as the production of original equipment.
The whole production process is controlled meticulously – from start to finish. Even the final functional and quality tests also meet the same standards applied to original equipment, according to Bosch.
