How Long is the Warranty Period for Geely Emgrand Sensors?
3 Answers
Geely Emgrand sensors have a warranty period of four years or 100,000 kilometers. Automotive sensors serve as the input devices for a car's computer system, converting various operational conditions such as vehicle speed, temperatures of different mediums, and engine performance into electrical signals transmitted to the computer to keep the engine in working condition. Taking the Emgrand 2020 1.5L CVT Premium model as an example: it features seats made of genuine and synthetic leather, an 8-inch touchscreen LCD for multimedia including navigation and phone functions, and is powered by a 1.5L 109 horsepower L4 naturally aspirated engine paired with a CVT continuously variable transmission.
A friend who bought an Emgrand asked about sensor warranty, and I have some experience with this. New cars generally come with a three-year or 60,000-kilometer warranty, and core components like sensors are theoretically included. However, it's crucial to check the 'special parts' list in the maintenance manual, as different sensors may fall under different warranty periods. For example, oxygen sensors are usually considered wear-and-tear items and only have a one-year warranty. I recommend checking the vehicle warranty card or having the 4S shop scan the code to check the system directly. Last time, my friend's brake sensor failed just at 2 years and 11 months, and they successfully got it replaced for free. Be aware that if you modify the wiring during the warranty period, there might be disputes over coverage.
I previously researched the warranty policy for the Emgrand, where most electronic components, including sensors, are covered by the vehicle's 3-year warranty. However, there are some small details to note: components like the mass air flow sensor, categorized as 'engine peripheral sensors,' may enjoy a longer 5-year warranty along with the engine. The rain/light sensor is typically covered under the roof module warranty. Three key recommendations: first, keep all maintenance records; second, avoid unauthorized disassembly of sensors outside authorized service centers; third, conduct a comprehensive inspection as the 3-year mark approaches. Last time, a service advisor mentioned they handle several successful warranty claims just before expiration every month.
