What About Engine or Starting Problems?
The engine manufacturer warranties the engine separately. If you experience difficulties with your engine, see your telephone book for the engine manufacturer’s nearest service center.
How Do I File a Claim?
If you believe any Patriot product or part is defective within a two (2) year period from the date of purchase, contact your place of purchase. They will file your claim or they will direct you to a qualified Patriot Authorized Service Center. You will be asked to produce a dated receipt for the prod- uct if it was not registered with the factory.
If the product or part is determined to be defective by a Patriot Authorized Service Center, we will repair or replace it at our discretion, at no expense to you or the service center.
If the product or part is damaged due to negligence, abuse of the prod- uct’s purpose, or improper maintenance, the warranty is void.
How Long Will It Take?
Warranty repairs may take a few minutes…or a few days. It depends on the nature of the problem. We believe it is in everyone’s best interest to provide service as quickly and efficiently as possible. However, during peak seasons, a service center may need a week or more to schedule and perform repairs.
What About Professional or Commercial Use?
A Patriot employed in any commercial endeavor (rental stores, landscaping businesses, farming, etc.) is warranted for 90 days from the date of purchase under the terms and conditions described above.
