Limited Warranty

POLARIS Industries Inc., 2100 Highway 55, Medina, MN 55340 (POLARIS) gives a 12 MONTH LIMITED WARRANTY on all components of your POLARIS vehicle against defects in material or workmanship. This warranty covers parts and labor charges for repair or replacement of defective parts and begins on the date of purchase by the original retail purchaser. This warranty is transferable to another owner during the warranty period through a POLARIS dealer, but any such transfer will not extend the original term of the warranty. The duration of this warranty may vary by international region based upon local laws and regulations.
THIS WARRANTY MAY BE VOIDED BY ANY UNAPPROVED MODIFICATIONS TO THIS VEHICLE THAT AFFECT POWERTRAIN, EXHAUST, CHASSIS OR SUSPENSION.
Promotional warranties are sometimes offered by POLARIS, including but not limited to:
  • Two-year extended engine coverage
  • Two-year powertrain coverage
  • Extended service contract
See your dealer for details and separate terms and conditions for any promotional warranties.

Registration

At the time of sale, the Warranty Registration Form must be completed by your dealer and submitted to POLARIS within ten days of purchase. Upon receipt of this registration, POLARIS will record the registration for warranty. No verification of registration will be sent to the purchaser as the copy of the Warranty Registration Form will be your proof of warranty coverage. If you have not signed the original registration and received the customer copy, please contact your dealer immediately. NO WARRANTY COVERAGE WILL BE ALLOWED UNLESS YOUR VEHICLE IS REGISTERED WITH POLARIS. Initial dealer preparation and set-up of your vehicle is very important in ensuring trouble-free operation. Purchasing a machine in the crate or without proper dealer set-up will void your warranty coverage.

ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE) ARE LIMITED IN DURATION TO THE WARRANTY PERIOD DESCRIBED HEREIN. POLARIS DISCLAIMS ALL EXPRESS WARRANTIES NOT STATED IN THIS WARRANTY. Some states do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, so the above limitation may not apply if it is inconsistent with the controlling state law.
This Limited Warranty excludes failures not caused by a defect in material or workmanship. This Limited Warranty does not cover damage due to accidents, abuse or improper handling, maintenance or use. This Limited Warranty also does not cover any engine that has been structurally altered, or when the vehicle has been used in racing competition. This Limited Warranty also does not cover physical damage, corrosion or defects caused by fire, explosions or other similar causes beyond the control of POLARIS.
Owners are responsible for performing the scheduled maintenance identified in the owner’s manual. POLARIS may deny warranty claims for failures that have been caused by the owner’s or operator’s improper maintenance or use, by accidents for which POLARIS has no responsibility, or by acts of God.
Any qualified repair shop or person may maintain, replace, or repair the emission control devices or systems on your vehicle. POLARIS recommends that you contact an authorized POLARIS dealer to perform any service that may be necessary for your vehicle. POLARIS also recommends that you use only POLARIS parts. It is a potential violation of the Clean Air Act if a part supplied by an aftermarket parts manufacturer reduces the effectiveness of the vehicle’s emission controls. Tampering with emission controls is prohibited by federal law.
