    Alot of customers have asked for the details so here they are -

    Customer Limited Warranty (3 year/36,000 mile)

    TERMS AND CONDITIONS
    THIS CUSTOMER WARRANTY REGISTRATION FORM MUST BE
    COMPLETED AND RECEIVED BY CHARTER WARRANTY AT THE
    ADDRESS ON THE FORM WITHIN 30 DAYS OF INITIAL SUPERCHARGER
    KIT PURCHASE DATE(SUPERCHARGER KIT).

    COVERAGE LIMITS: $3,000 for ENGINE; $2,000 for TRANSMISSION; $5,000 POLICY LIMIT - In the event of a failure of Covered Component, We will
    repair or replace the defective Covered Component(s), including the replacement of all lost fluids. The limit of liability for the Vehicle is $3,000.00 for the
    engine and $2,000.00 for the transmission, with an aggregate maximum liability and policy limit of $5,000.00. After the Administrator has paid the full
    policy limit of this Warranty, the Warranty lapses. If a claim exceeds the actual cash value of the Vehicle and the Administrator elects to pay the actual cash
    value of the vehicle to You, the Vehicle becomes the property of Administrator for salvage. You must provide the Vehicle, with free and clear title, to the
    Administrator before it will pay to You the actual cash value. Our obligation under this Warranty shall be to replace covered components with new or Vortech
    certified re-manufactured parts, as shall be necessary to remedy covered defects in material and/or workmanship. Vortech reserves the right to improve the
    design of any kits without assuming any obligation to modify any part previously manufactured or installed on a Vehicle.

    EXCLUDED CAUSES OF DAMAGES AND/OR CONDITIONS:
    1. Damages to the Covered Components caused by neglect, abuse, lack of maintenance, collision, abnormal operation or improper installation of the
    Kit; 2. Damages to the Covered Components cause by operation of the engine without fuels, oils, or lubricants, or with fuels, oils or lubricants that are
    contaminated or not suitable for the engine; 3. Damages caused by blown head gaskets, fluid leaks, cracked heads or block, overheating or other
    engine failures caused by the lack of fluids or improper maintenance; 4. Damages caused by excess oil consumption and/or worn out parts; 5.
    Damages to the Covered Components caused by towing, improper load capacity or continued operation of an impaired Vehicle; 6. Damage to the engine
    caused by collision, misuse, road conditions, negligence, alterations, racing, fires, floods, riots, vandalism, theft, or acts of God.

    EXCLUDED USES WHICH CAUSE THIS WARRANTY TO BE VOID:
    1. Use of the Vehicle for any commercial purpose or in the commission of a crime or infraction; 2. All diesel applications; 3. Installation of a lift kit
    and/or oversized tires and/or wheels on the Vehicle; 4. Installation or use of headers, pulley(ies), camshaft, bolt-on performance enhancement parts, or
    nitrous oxide systems on the Vehicle, unless sold by Vortech for use in connection with the Kit, or approved in writing by the Administrator, after it has
    obtained the consent of Vortech, for use on the specific Vehicle identified in this Warranty; 5. Participation in, or the preparation of the Vehicle for,
    racing or other competitive activities; 6. The removal or modification of Kit components without the express written permission of the Administrator, after

    Components driven to destruction. It is Your sole responsibility to use all necessary precautions to protect the Vehicle from further damage if the
    Vehicle's operation is impaired. Continued operation of an impaired Vehicle after any type of mechanical failure constitutes failure to protect the
    Vehicle from any further damage, is negligence by the Owner or driver of the Vehicle, and voids the Warranty.

    caused by or arising out of the installation may arise, and are not covered under this Warranty. The exclusionary period commences on the Supercharger
    Kit Purchase Date of Warranty and terminates once 90 days AND 1500 miles have both passed.

    EXCLUSIONS - This Warranty only applies to defects in material and workmanship. In addition to other terms and conditions that are set forth in this
    document, the following EXCLUSIONS are made to this Warranty. Existence of an EXCLUSION means that the Warranty is VOID and cannot be
    enforced by the Owner:

    ELIGIBILITY AND TERM – Once your Warranty is enrolled, Vortech Engineering, Inc. and Charter Warranty ("the Administrator" , collectively "We" or "Our")
    will warrant to the Registered Owner ("You or Your") of the Vehicle identified above ("Vehicle") in which Vortech Supercharger Kit ("Kit") identified above is
    installed, so long as the Vehicle is not in use as a Commercial Vehicle or prepared or used for racing or other competitive activities, that the Covered Components
    will be free from defects in materials and workmanship for the Warranty Term. A certified and qualified automotive technician must install the Kit. Odometers
    must be fully functional at all time during the Warranty period. Installation date must be within 30 (thirty) days of Supercharger Kit Purchase Date. Once
    enrolled, the Warranty Term begins on the Supercharger Kit Purchase Date identified on this document, and expires at the EARLIER of 11:59 p.m. on the
    date three years have passed OR 36,000 miles, but is subject to a preliminary exclusionary period of ninety (90) days AND 1,500 miles. The Warranty must
    be enrolled to become effective. Benefits are payable once the required information and the Repair Order are received by Administrator, approved, and the
    90 day/1,500 mile preliminary exclusionary period has passed. The Warranty then shall be in force for three (3) years or 36,000 miles, whichever occurs first.

    THIS WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER THE FOLLOWING ITEMS OR COMPONENTS - This Warranty does not include any part that is not a part of the long
    block assembly. Parts that require normal manufacturer’s recommended replacement intervals are not covered under this Warranty. Damage resulting from
    failures by related parts or units such as but not limited to levers, controls, linkage, cables, radiator, coolers, rubber mounts, external oil lines, electronic
    components internal or external to the engine or transmission are not covered. All Wheel Drive Vehicles and their transfer cases are not-covered items. This
    Warranty does not cover external engine parts, ignition parts, fuel system parts, and engine management parts.

    UPON RECEIPT, WARRANTY ADMINISTRATOR WILL REVIEW
    REGISTRATION FORM AND INSTALLER'S WORK ORDER. IF
    ALL CRITERIA HAS BEEN MET, WARRANTY WILL BE
    ENROLLED. ENROLLED WARRANTIES ARE SUBJECT TO
    CANCELLATION AND CLAIM DENIAL IF FACTUAL
    MISREPRESENTATIONS ARE MADE OR EXCLUSIONS TO
    COVERAGE EXIST AT OR BEFORE THE WARRANTY CLAIM IS
    MADE.

    A. We are responsible for Covered Components on the Vehicle, and only to the Registered Owner of the Vehicle if that Registered Owner is accurately
    identified in the enrollment documents for this Warranty. THIS WARRANTY IS NONTRANSFERABLE AND TERMINATES UPON CONVEYANCE OF TITLE TO,
    OR TRANSFER OF PHYSICAL POSSESSION OF, THE VEHICLE TO ANOTHER PERSON OR ENTITY.

    B. If this Vehicle did not qualify for this Warranty at the time the Warranty was purchased, but the Warranty was nevertheless sold, with no fault of Your own for
    use with this Vehicle, then the Administrator has the right to cancel the Warranty and the maximum liability that We have to You is to refund to You the actual cost
    of this Warranty, without interest or any other increase of additional payment, if we have not incurred additional costs.

    C. If there has been any fraud, misrepresentation, material omission or other incorrect or misleading disclosure, or failure to disclose, a material fact, then the
    Administrator has the right to void this Warranty, and exclude certain coverage, in its sole discretion, because of such fact. If this Warranty is voided or coverage
    excluded by reason of Your action or inaction, or any occurrence, or lack of action, that occurred after the Warranty purchased, then You are not entitled to any
    refund of the cost or premium for the Warranty, or any other consideration or payment.

    D. This is not a performance warranty. All vehicles have their own quirks and differences, and all drivers are different. Diminished performance is not a covered
    component or the basis for a claim under this Warranty!

    E. This Warranty does not cover damages from Your loss of use of the Vehicle, loss of earnings, personal damages, per diem expenses or any other
    consequential or incidental damages. Storage, medical, telephone or rental charges of any kind are not covered. This Warranty is secondary to the primary
    Manufacturer's Warranty of your Vehicle.

    F. All express and implied warranties of merchantability and fitness are excluded from this Warranty. The maximum term of any and all implied warranties that
    may exist extend only for life of the express Warranty provided herein.
    MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS - You must properly maintain the Vehicle. It is Your responsibility to have the engine oil and filter changed at an accredited oil
    facility pursuant to the original equipment manufacturer’s oil change requirements, or every four (4) months, or four thousand miles (4,000), whichever occurs
    first. You must retain properly documented and verifiable receipts, and make those available at the time of Warranty claim. Hand written receipts and
    unverifiable receipts will not be accepted. Presentation of other maintenance and service receipts and invoices may be required in the event of a claim.

    A. Notify the Administrator immediately at 1-800-684-1175 for a claim number.

    B. Have all required documentation prepared to submit to the Administrator; specifically, a copy of this Warranty Registration Form, proof of maintenance of the
    Vehicle as outlined in Item 7 - Maintenance Requirements, and documentation of the failure of a Covered Component.

    C. You must use, and agree to authorize, an A.S.E. Certified Repair Facility to tear down the Vehicle so that inspection of the Covered Component may be
    made. This must be done prior to authorization of repair or replacement of the Covered Component by the Administrator. You will be solely liable, and agree to
    pay, the costs of the tear down if the damages are not covered by this Warranty, or the difference between the covered amount and the costs and fees of the tear
    down plus other costs exceed Our maximum liability under this Warranty.

    D. Reasonable access must be provided to the Vehicle for the Administrator and Vortech personnel for Warranty inspection purposes.

    E. If we need any of the Covered Components examined, then You must pay for all related transportation charges and/or travel time. Any parts shipped by You
    for inspection or repair must be shipped with freight pre-paid.

    F. All repairs and work shall be done and covered up to the maximum of our liability, and at our approved labor rate. Failure to receive Administrator’s authorization
    prior to any repair work will invalidate this Warranty.

    G. You may not rely on representations, whether oral, written or otherwise, of anyone with respect to the nature and extent of the coverage under this Warranty
    and must rely only on the terms and conditions herein. No employee or representative of Vortech or Charter Warranty has the right or power to change or waive
    any of the terms and conditions of this Warranty, other than by joint written agreement by the President of Vortech and the President of Charter Warranty.

    H. This Warranty is only valid in the continental United States and Canada.

    I. AGREEMENT TO JURISDICTION, VENUE IN MICHIGAN AND WAIVER OF RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION. THIS WARRANTY
    ORIGINATES IN CALIFORNIA. By submitting this Warranty for Enrollment, you agree that this Warranty and any litigation arising out of or relating to this
    Warranty is governed by, interpreted under and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Michigan without regard to conflicts of laws principles. Any
    action brought to enforce or interpret this Warranty shall be brought and maintained exclusively in a court of the State of Michigan in Oakland County, or in the
    United States District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan. You consent to submit to in persona jurisdiction of a court of the State of Michigan located in
    Oakland County and the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan for any dispute arising out of or relating to this Warranty, and agree that
    you will not attempt to deny or defeat such jurisdiction by motion or other request for leave from court, and expressly waive the right to bring any class action.
    All claims and disputes shall be tried as individual claims and not as a class action by any single court. You waive the right to participate in any class action
    relating to this Warranty and rights created there under or relating thereto. How State Law applies: This Warranty gives You specific legal rights. You may have
    other rights that vary from state to state.

    WARRANTY TERM: THIS WARRANTY BEGINS ON THE SUPERCHARGER KIT PURCHASE
