• Diagnostic, dismantling costs and costs to reassemble the Vehicle following such diagnosis or dismantling (if applicable), including where such costs are required to ascertain whether a failure is a covered failure under the Policy, unless accepted as part of an authorised claim; or
• Paintwork, panel and bodywork and all related Vehicle components (including but not limited to) lamps and lamp units, weather-strips and seals, components made of glass, and/or any exterior trim or decorative components.
Please note: The gradual reduction in operating performance of a component may result in a component becoming noisy and as such, does not necessarily constitute a sudden and unforeseen failure.
The Policy will cease and No Cover is provided under the Policy for any Vehicle which:
• Is being or has been used;
• in competitions, rallies, racing, pace making, reliability trials, speed or hill climbing,
• for carrying and/or towing loads above the gross combination weight of the trailer and your Vehicle, as specified by the Manufacturer,
• for car rental,
• for carrying passengers for hire or reward,
• for delivery or courier use,
• as a Police or emergency Vehicle,
• for driver instruction or tuition for reward, or
• in connection with mining and or excavation activities,
• Is unroadworthy or unregistered;
• Is being used outside of Australia; or
• Has an odometer reading that cannot be accurately determined.
This Policy does not cover non-financial loss or consequential financial loss.
Consequential financial loss is indirect loss which accompanies insured loss including but not limited to legal costs or investigation costs. Non-financial loss is loss, including but not limited to distress, inconvenience, pain and suffering and/or damage to reputation.
In relation to the Policy Exclusions, You should also read the next section, titled ‘Service Requirements’ carefully.
SERVICE REQUIREMENTS
It is a condition of Cover that Your Vehicle is maintained in a roadworthy, mechanically sound condition and serviced regularly in accordance with the Manufacturer’s recommendations. It is Your responsibility to ensure that servicing is completed in accordance with Manufacturer’s recommendations. If You are unsure of these, please contact the Manufacturer to ascertain the recommended servicing schedule for Your Vehicle.
An Authorised Dealer must carry out any service or repairs and the Service Records must be completed and stamped each time the Vehicle is serviced. Any defect or fault or any parts identified as needing repair or replacement or which are identified as a potential problem, including those identified while the Vehicle is still covered by Dealer Warranty or Manufacturer Warranty, must be immediately rectified. Upon becoming aware of the development of any mechanical problem, You or any other person driving the Vehicle must take all necessary steps to minimise any damage that might arise.
It is Your responsibility to keep proof of servicing. Before a claim will be authorised, You must provide the Service Records
The guy at coveru said allianz only do 2yr extended warranty (up to an extra 100000km) for $2850. Guess i'm going to go with the Eric 5yr extended warranty for less monies.
