What is required when providing an in-house warranty to the customer?

When providing an in-house warranty to a customer, it is essential to have a separate document that includes all federally required language. This requirement ensures compliance with federal regulations, which are designed to protect consumers by clearly outlining the terms and conditions of the warranty. The documentation must provide specific information, such as the coverage period, services included, limitations, and any other pertinent details related to the warranty.

Having a formal, written warranty document not only helps in maintaining transparency with the customer but also aids in avoiding disputes that may arise regarding warranty claims. While verbal explanations can be helpful, they do not provide the legal protection that a written document offers. Thus, only having a Buyer's Guide or a verbal explanation would not meet the necessary legal requirements for an in-house warranty.
