Your Authorised Selling Dealer will inform you of any addition or modification made to your vehicle prior to delivery which has not been approved by Fuso. Any addition or modification made to your vehicle before or after delivery which has not been approved by Fuso, will not be covered by the terms of this New Vehicle Warranty unless Fuso, in its sole judgement, determines otherwise.

Fuso and its Authorised Dealers reserve the right to make changes in vehicles built and/or sold by them at any time without incurring any obligation to make the same or similar changes on vehicles previously built and/or sold by them.

Defects in paint, trim or other appearance items are normally noted and corrected during Pre-delivery Inspection. For your protection, it is suggested that should you find any paint or appearance item which you suspect is a defect, advise your Authorised Selling Dealer without delay, as normal deterioration due to use and exposure is not covered by this New Vehicle Warranty.

To obtain warranty service, your vehicle must be returned to your nearest authorised Fuso dealer where such service will be performed in accordance with the terms of this New Vehicle Warranty. If your vehicle becomes inoperative and cannot be moved under its own power, contact our 24/7 Roadside Assistance hotline on 1800 033 557 who will organise the closest authorised Fuso dealership or repairer to come to your aid.

The best way to preserve your vehicle’s finish and aid in avoiding rust is to keep the vehicle clean by washing it frequently. Wash the vehicle only with lukewarm or cold water. Do not wash the vehicle in the direct rays of the sun, or use strong soap or chemical detergents. Any cleaning agents used should be washed off properly and not allowed to dry on the finish.

Calcium chloride and other salts, ice melting agents, road oil and tar, tree sap, bird droppings, chemicals from industrial chimneys and other foreign matter may damage the vehicle’s finish if left on painted surfaces. Prompt washing may not completely remove all these deposits. Additional cleaners may be needed. When using chemical cleaners developed for this purpose, be sure they are safe for use on painted surfaces.

Corrosive materials used for ice removal and dust control can collect on underbody surfaces. If these materials are not removed, accelerated rusting can occur on the underbody parts such as fuel lines, frame, floor panel and exhaust system. At least twice a year, and more frequently in climates where road salt is commonly used, thoroughly flush these materials from the underbody with plain water. Take care to clean areas where mud and other debris can collect.

Any stone chips, cracks or deep scratches in the finish should be repaired promptly. Bare metal will corrode quickly and can develop into a major repair expense.
