Applicable coverage
This policy covers the following failures or issues that have the potential to occur for the duration set out in “Period of Warranty”. MCA Suspension reserves the right to reject specific warranty claims relating to certain issues that have reoccurred after a remedy has already been provided where it is believed by MCA Suspension that the issue relates to physical goods or components not provided by MCA Suspension.
Visible defects or issues (no warranty claim limit within “Period of Warranty”)
Leaking oil seals: Photographic evidence of failure will need to be provided to MCA Suspension to legitimize warranty claims relating to leaking or defective oil seals.

General defects in components that inhibit the product being used for its designed purpose or compromises the safety of the product: Photographic evidence of failure or defects will need to be provided to MCA Suspension to legitimize warranty claims relating to general defects.
Audible defects or issues (limited to one warranty claim per unit within “Period of Warranty)
Squeaks
Creaks
Knocks
Taps
Audible issues that continue to arise after a warranty claim has already been completed are unlikely to be caused by the suspension package provided by MCA Suspension. For this reason MCA Suspension limits the number of warranty claims relating solely to audible issues to one warranty claim for each unit purchased. If you are experiencing ongoing audible issues after your first warranty claim for a particular unit, we suggest consumers seek further assistance from a qualified mechanical workshop regarding looking into other possible causes.
