Remanufactured Engine & Services Limited Warranty and Terms

WARRANTY TERMS:

Acceptance Of Warranty Terms.  You, by the purchase of a product from Socal Marine LLC (“Socal Marine LLC”) that is covered by the Socal Marine LLC Remanufactured Engine & Other Services Limited Warranty Agreement (“Agreement”), denote your acceptance of the terms of conditions of this Agreement.  The terms "You" or “Purchaser” means you the original purchaser of the product, your agents, beneficiaries, or heirs.

Socal Marine LLC warrants its Remanufactured/Reconditioned Engines and Services to the original purchaser to be free of defective parts and workmanship for the time shown below.  This warranty begins on the date of original retail delivery, installation, collection from premises or shipment from Socal Marine LLC, whichever occurs first.  Repairs or replacements under warranty will not extend the warranty coverage.  No benefits or remedies are available under this limited warranty while the invoice for the unit or related services remains outstanding.  This warranty is Non-Transferable.  Under the discretion of the engine builder some original parts may be reused if found to be in proper working condition. We ALWAYS install new bearings, seals and non-reusable gaskets as an absolute minimum. As a general rule and when applicable - our Recon & ReMan engines usually but not always receive the following new depending: timing set, bearings, rings, lifters, pushrods, valve springs, pistons, oil pump, harmonic balancer, valve springs, balancers, oil pumps, valves, valve seals, new valve seats. In some rare instances we will reuse matched cams and lifters at our own discretion. No employer, sub-contractor or persons working at or with Socal Marine LLC shall in any way be personally be held liable for any damages and/or losses related to work done by Socal Marine LLC. If any part of a remanufactured engine assembly fails in normal use because of defective parts or workmanship performed by the manufacturer and is returned to us, then it will be repaired or the assembly replaced.  The alleged defective part of the assembly MUST be returned to the manufacturer, at your cost (properly supported by filled out claim forms and receipts), for inspection and credit consideration in order for the Replacement coverage to be applicable, as specified below:


Engine Warranty:

Labor not included. Warranty only covers damage solely caused by failure of internal components directly related to the short/long block. Any failure from cooling, exhaust, intake, fuel delivery, ignition failure or any other external issue will not be covered.

IT IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE OWNER TO CHECK SEA VALVES AND ALL OTHER NECESSARY SYSTEMS PRIOR TO RUNNING THE ENGINE. OWNER NEGLIGENCE IS NOT COVERED UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCE AND WILL BE STRICTLY EXAMINED IN THE EVENT OF ENGINE/PART FAILURE.

 
  • Marine Short/Long Block:  

12 Months/Unlimited Hours for pleasure craft/non commercial use unless stated otherwise on final invoice. Any vessel that is used as a rental to ANY 3rd party is considered a commercial vessel and unless otherwise stated will have a 6 month guarantee from date of completion unless otherwise stated.

Failure of any component(s) not part of the long block (cooling, exhaust, fuel delivery, etc) that causes severe engine damage will void the warranty. ANY melted engine tabs will void any engine warranty (we use marine rated engine tabs at 200 degrees). Tampering with engine tabs is a violation of terms and will void ANY warranty. Engine damage resulting from any external component(s) that failed/misconfirgured will void any warranty (Remote oil lines, filters, coolers, etc). Water ingress via intake or exhaust ports will voild any warranty. If a long block fails we will need to inspect and approve any warranty work. Tampering with an engine after failure is prohibited and will also void the warranty.

  • Marine Used Parts Warranty supplied + installed by us:  

Used parts are supplied "as is" unless stated otherwise on final invoice and only intended for pleasure use. (Additional labor costs will be charged to cover non-warrantied parts that have failed and caused damage).

  • Marine Services Performed by Socal Marine LLC:

No warranty/refunds on labor performed. Labor is charged per job at our standard/flat rate available on our home page. Any warranty items will be subject to our standard labor rates at our own discretion.

 

General Services:

DELINQUENT PENALTIES: If you dont respond to service calls/messages/email for a period of more than 2 weeks your vessel will be charged a daily storage rate of $50/day on top of existing services performed.

General service work performed will carry a 3 month warranty from date of completion unless otherwise specified. Used parts that were reused/reinstalled as part of a job will not be covered under any circumstances unless specifically stated on invoice. Only exactly listed parts will be covered by our warranty. Only new parts or their immediate sub-components will be covered under warranty, this excludes any parts that work directly in conjunction with the new part. For example a new input yoke assemby will include the universal bearings, yokes and the shaft as all the components form part of the entire unit as supplied/stated on the invoice - however if the upper gears happent to fail they will not magically be covered as well as they are not part of the supplied new part. Again, part(s) NOT explicitly listed on invoices are NOT magically included in any warranty terms, even if they work in conjunction with parts or services listed on the invoice. If you did not pay for new valves but received new valve springs - If a used valve fails and damages the new valve spring the new spring and any consequent damage will be void of any warranty as a non listed and/or non warrantied component caused damage. We have had people who do not wish to pay for a complete job due to budget restrictions who assume by paying for part A, (used) part B automatically falls under the same warranty - and this is not the case. To repeat - Any damage associated with work not explicitly listed on an invoice AND under warranty will not be covered. We only cover parts that have failed individually that are A: Listed exactly on the invoice, and B: are still under warranty. Dont pull a rich move on us - by paying for part A, magically assume used part B and C are somehow magically covered as well - NOT GONNA HAPPEN.

 

ALL WARRANTY REPLACEMENTS MUST BE PRE-APPROVED.

Socal Marine LLC will review and authorize the warranty return request and you are to deliver the product for inspection to Socal Marine LLC. 

Socal Marine LLC shall then arrange for the inspection and repair, provided such service is covered under this warranty.

 Please make sure the following is adhered to:

  1. Explain warranty coverage and service procedures to the owner and assure owner's manual is given to boat owner

OWNER'S RESPONSIBILITY

 You've made an excellent choice in purchasing a Socal Marine LLC Remanufactured Engine.  To insure long engine life and trouble-free performance, it should be properly maintained.  This includes, but is not limited to:

  1. FIRST 30 minutes of runtime: Owners need to very carefully watch engine temps and exhaust temps during initial trials and the first 30 minutes of running a fresh built engine. Failure on the owners part to be on the look out for signs of trouble will not be covered if lack of diligent checking was not performed. Check for any leaks, smells, noises and CONFIRM oil pressure and engine temps EVERY MINUTE for the first 30 minutes to make absolutely sure the engine has oil and cooling.
  2. Oil and filter change after initial 10 hours on new builds. Then, regular oil and filter changes every 50 hours or once a season, whichever occurs first.
  3. Regular check of all fluid levels throughout the engine. Engine oil must be at a safe level regardless of engine condition. Damage caused by running the engine without adequate oil in the crankcase is not covered under this warranty.
  4. Tune-up, belt, filter and hose replacement at necessary intervals or whenever substandard performance is experienced.
  5. Cooling system must operate at normal temperature. Thermostat, water pump, leaks and corrosion are the responsibility of the boat owner. Freezing or low coolant level damage is not covered under this warranty.

We recommend you keep all engine installation and service records with the owner's manual.  You may be required to provide proof of maintenance records in the event a customer service/warranty situation arises.

There are many things that can cause an engine to fail over which the manufacturer has not control, and are not covered by the manufacturer's service warranty.  Some of, but not all of the reasons are as follows:

  1. Holes burned in pistons caused by detonation/leaking exhaust gaskets/other. Be sure engine is installed and tuned properly, and ALL exhaust and cooling related systems are in excellent working order. It is the OWNERS RESPONSIBILITY to monitor ALL gauges during initial use and be on the look out for any signs of trouble - Old manifolds/risers/elbows contribute to a VERY large amount of engine failures and is NOT covered under engine/long or shortblock warranties. Water intrusion via bilge/carb/throttle body/contaminated fuel or any external resource will also not be covered. 
  2. Excessive operating temperatures. Excessive temperature can be injurious to engine life. There are many causes for excessive engine temperature over which the manufacturer has no control. Faulty cooling systems will cause head gasket failure.
  3. Improper or lack of proper lubricants.
  4. Water intrusion from any source outside of manufacturer defect or from faulty manifolds/risers or any cooling system which is used. We HIGHLY recommend installing new manifolds/risers/elbows with ALL engine replacements to avoid a repeat failure! 
  5. Cracked blocks, water intrusion, from not winterizing correctly will also void any warranty.
  6. Very often numerous trim related parts need to be replaced entirely for slipped boats in salt water, esp trim rams. Parts may be unremovable and require assemblies to be replaced in severe cases where there has been lack of servicing/neglect. In such circumstances there will be  extra labor and part charges.

 WHAT IS NOT COVERED

  1. Fluids

Warranty repairs or replacements occurring in the first 30 days of engine service will include a maximum fluid and filter allowance of $25.00.  After that time, fluids are not covered under warranty.

  1. Damage Due to Alterations, Misuse, or Accidents or other non-warrantied parts failing

Repairs required as a result of fire, accidents, abuse, freezing, negligence or objects striking the vessel/engine, or misuse of the engine such as overloading racing, etc.

Improper adjustments, modifications, tampering disconnection, alteration (changing or adding to the engine), adjustments to components not complying with the Manufacturer's specifications, improper propeller selection, or operator error.

Subjecting engine to operations causing greater than normal wear, or used for any purposes for which it was not originally designed, or to engine failures due to improper installations by a party other than the manufacturer or improper units or parts on engine that were not supplied by the manufacturer and any other causes as herein specified.

  1. Damage From the Environment

Hail, rain, windstorms, lightning, floods, freezing, and other Acts of God.

  1. Damage Due to Improper Maintenance

Repairs required due to lack of or improper maintenance or failure to use recommended fuel, oil, and lubricants, or engine operated on any fuel other than gasoline, or water contamination from an outside source.

  1. Routine Maintenance Expenses

Routine regularly required maintenance such as lubrication and changing filters, engine tune-up and replacing belt, hoses, exhaust manifolds, or any other normal maintenance service all boats require.

  1. Extra Expenses

This warranty does not cover incidental or consequential damages such as loss of use of the boat due to engine failure, towing charges, lift charges, storage or dock charges, rental or other substitute transportations, loss of time, inconvenience, expense for gasoline, telephone or fax charges, travel or lodging, loss or damage to personal property, commercial loss, loss of revenue or other matters not specifically included.  Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation on how long an implied warranty lasts, so the above limitation or exclusions may not apply to you.

7. Inaccurately diagnosed Services including call outs/field service calls

This warranty will not cover additional labor costs/field call outs for diagnosis/replacement/removal/installation and other such costs whether related to warranty parts failing or erronous diagnostic call outs. It will be the discretion of Socal Marine LLC to apply a reduced fee under certain circumstances.

** Payment/Collection:


NO vessel shall be removed/collected from our premises until all pending fee's/invoices are PAID IN FULL (ie from the date that the customer is notified via email/text that the vessel is ready). At the discretion of Socal Marine LLC - in some instances funds will have to be cleared by the payee's issuing bank before payment will be considered complete and the owners property/vessel ready for collection (if paying a large sum by check for example). Using direct wire transfer (details on invoices)/credit card* / Zelle will avoid this delay.

A 7 day maximum grace period (includes weekends) will be given to settle final payment - unless written permission has been granted from Socal Marine LLC (via text/email) for an extension/alternative arrangement. If full payment has not been made (excludes banking delays/processing times) within the 7 day grace period (includes weekends) then an ADDITIONAL STORAGE FEE of $50/DAY will be automatically added to the bill/invoice and require settlement before any vessel is to be collected. Additionally, payment is expected upon the provision/completion of services/parts (listed on invoice). Failure to pay for invoices in full by witholding payment/unethical measures/dishonest means/delays/lack or timely response/communications will void any warranty for services/parts listed on invoice and any further services shall be refused to the customer until ALL outstanding fee's/penalties are paid up in full (see below). If we do not receive payment in full on any invoice within 30 days past the payment terms on the invoice, late charges at .8333% interest per month (10% per year) will be imposed on your unpaid balance after 30 days. Your unpaid balance is determined by taking the beginning balance of your account for each month, adding any new charges and subtracting any payments made to your account. We will then multiply this amount by the .8333% monthly periodic interest rate to compute the late charge for your account for that month. If estimates are required before jobs are started, a written request must be emailed directly from the client to socalmarineLLC@gmail.com (or via text message) stating that estimates must be provided before work commences.
