Warranties

B&R Automotive proudly offers a 6-month/7,200 mile part replacement warranty from the date of the invoice on all parts sold, unless otherwise noted. We do not cover labor charges unless a labor warranty is purchased. If a labor warranty was purchased, it is limited to the duration of the warranty on the face of this invoice and is payable up to the amount of coverage that was purchased.

B&R Automotive does not guarantee mileage. Abuse, negligence, commercial/industrial use, or installation in an application other than that which the manufacturer intended voids all warranties. If a warranty applies to the purchased part, it must be returned to a B&R location.
