The following 3 categories of vehicles are eligible for coverage under the BSC.

In order to be eligible for coverage, the vehicles falling into categories 2 and 3 below must have a new battery installed by the Dealer prior to the vehicle sale. The new battery must come with a least a one year factory warranty and must be a battery sold by a manufacturer on Aftercare’s approved battery list*.

  • Current and one previous model year NEW vehicles that have the full factory warranty remaining at the time of vehicle sale;
  • NEW vehicles whose batteries are more than 2 years old;
  • Current and 9 previous model year USED motorcycles and current and 4 previous model year USED scooters, ATVs, UTVs, PWCs and snowmobiles, whose factory warranty has expired.

 

The BSC is available only for batteries that are on vehicles sold out of the Dealer’s inventory and only on the day the Vehicle is sold. No walk-ins. Not available for sale through the service department on replacement batteries.

Dealer certifies that the battery installed on a New Vehicle has been confirmed to hold a full charge prior to vehicle sale, that the battery is not overloaded (there is not excessive draw from accessories), and that the vehicle is otherwise in proper running order;

Dealer certifies that the new battery installed on any Non-Current New or Used vehicle has been confirmed to hold a full charge prior to vehicle sale, that the battery is not overloaded (there is not excessive draw from accessories), and that the vehicle is otherwise in proper running order;

Dealer agrees to install a second battery and include the Second Battery Option Coverage Fee for any vehicle that has either factory installed or Dealer installed accessories that exceed the acceptable draw intended for the primary battery;

Any battery holding less than a full charge must be replaced in order to meet eligibility requirements.

 

This Program does not provide for the replacement of batteries that are covered by a manufacturer’s warranty. It is the Dealer’s responsibility to verify warranty coverage before initiating a claim.

This Program does not include labor of any kind.

Should it be determined that the battery falls within the term of the BSC and is not currently covered by a manufacturer’s warranty, the Dealer agrees to:

Inspect the vehicle to rule out an overload condition as the possible cause of battery failure;

Use a multi-meter to determine the battery’s ability to hold a charge;

Provide the multi-meter report to Aftercare as part of the claims filing process;

Retain the failed battery core for 60 days and provide for inspection, if requested by Aftercare;

Install a replacement battery from Aftercare’s approved list of manufacturers;

Ensure that the replacement battery comes with at least a one year factory warranty.
