Your purchase includes the following warranty which is in lieu of all other express warranties. This warranty is extended only to the initial consumer purchaser. The following warranty is void without valid registration of product purchase (see Product Registration above).
Frame: Steel frames are guaranteed against faulty materials and workmanship for as long as the initial consumer purchaser has the Companion Bike Seat, subject to the condition of the warranty listed below. If frame failure should occur due to faulty materials or workmanship during the guarantee period, the frame will be replaced. For frame replacement under this Limited Warranty, contact us, stating the nature of the failure, serial number, date received and the name of the store from which the Bike Seat was received, at the address given on this page. Frame must be returned for inspection at customer’s expense. Please note, a lifetime warranty on your frame does not guarantee that the product will last forever. The length of the useful life cycle will vary depending on the riding conditions and the care the Bike Seat receives. Competition, jumping, mountain biking, downhill racing, trick riding, trial riding, riding in severe conditions or climates, riding with heavy loads (exceeding the maximum load capacity stated for Companion Bike Seats in this document) or any other non-standard use can substantially shorten the useful product life cycle. Any one or a combination of these conditions may result in an unpredictable failure that is not covered by this warranty.
Cushion: Companion Bike Seat cushions are warranted against defective materials and workmanship for a period of 90 days from the date of purchase by the initial consumer purchaser, subject to the Terms and Conditions of the warranty listed below. This warranty does not cover normal wear and tear, damage from misuse or abuse, rips and tears, etc.
Parts: All other parts of the unit are warranted against defective materials and workmanship for period of 1 year from the date of purchase by the initial consumer purchaser, subject to the Terms and Conditions of the warranty listed below. If failure of any part should occur due to faulty materials or workmanship during the warranty period, the part will be replaced. All warranty claims must be submitted to the address above and must be shipped prepaid and accompanied by proof of purchase. Any other warranty claims not included in this statement are void. This especially includes installation, assembly, and disassembly costs. This warranty does not cover paint damage, rust, or any modifications made to the Companion Bike Seat. The warranty does not cover normal wear and tear, improper assembly or maintenance, or installation of parts or accessories. The warranty does not apply to damage or failure due to accident, abuse, misuse, neglect, or theft. Claims involving these issues will not be honored.
