Security Plus Performance Protection Plan

TERMS:

Throughout this Plan, the words “we”, “us” and “our” (whether or not capitalized) refer to W3 Solutions, except in the provinces of BC, Alberta, Saskatchewan and Quebec where the words “we”, “us” and “our” (whether or not capitalized) refer to the selling retailer. We agree with the purchaser of the product(s) and this Plan (OWNER), to cover manufacturer’s defects in materials and workmanship that are the result of normal usage for a period specified on your sales receipt and/or P3 Contract, subject to a maximum combined coverage period of six (6) years from the original date of purchase for all eligible products covered, inclusive of the manufacturers warranty period. The Plan covers eligible products purchased, including its accessories, as new and manufactured for use in Canada, which at the time of purchase included a Manufacturer’s original warranty valid in Canada providing minimum coverage of 90 days for parts and/or labour. The Plan begins on the expiry date of the Manufacturer’s warranty and is between us and the OWNER.

This Plan pays for parts and labour for functional parts; functional parts are those that are critical to the performance of the product’s essential function; non-functional parts are those that are not critical including but not limited to knobs, handles or cosmetic parts. We will repair or replace the unit or any parts thereof, as required, subject to these terms and conditions.

We are not obligated to renew your Plan, however, if renewal coverage is offered, the price quoted will reflect current service costs and the age of the product. You may be required to ship the Covered Product to a designated location before being able to receive your replacement.

2. This Plan does not cover failure as a result of: normal wear and tear, deterioration of consumable parts including but not limited to, jacks, misuse, abuse, rust or corrosion, spilled liquids or foreign objects found inside the equipment; repair of damage or food loss caused by accident, theft, fire, flood, acts of God, other conditions arising from force majeure, external causes such as, but not limited to blown fuses, inadequate electrical power, water and gas lines beyond the equipment, plugged drains, hard water, or any use of the product not authorized or covered by the manufacturer.
3. The maximum liability of this Plan for product replacement shall not exceed the original purchase price for the product. Should primary insurance be available, then this Plan provides secondary coverage only to the extent not covered by the primary policy.
4. We reserve the right to repair or replace the Covered Product with a comparable feature model of like kind and quality. Product replacement under this Plan will fulfill this agreement in its entirety and will discharge all further obligations under this Plan and the Plan shall terminate.

10. Replacement of light bulbs, fuses, filters, or any other products with a pre-determined life expectancy are excluded. Batteries are considered a consumable item and are therefore excluded from coverage under this Plan.
11. Any loss occurring during the manufacturer’s plan is excluded and any loss due to failure to follow the manufacturer’s recommended maintenance, specifications or operating instructions during the term of this Plan is excluded.

In the event of cancellation by us (except for non-payment), we will provide the Plan owner with a pro-rata refund.
17. Any loss or subsequent loss(es) resulting from manufacturer’s recall or rework, regardless of the manufacturer’s ability to pay for such repairs, is excluded.

We are not liable for any service delays that are not within our control.

OTHERS:

1. We will make every attempt during the troubleshooting process to confirm whether the problem is related to a warrantable fault or failure. If after service is performed, it is determined that the cause of the problem was non warrantable according to the terms herein, the Plan owner will be responsible for all costs incurred.
2. “Lemon Aid” Policy – While covered under this Plan and after the product requires covered service on three (3) separate occasions for the same component and this component requires a fourth repair, as determined by our authorized service centre WE will replace the product with a product of like kind and quality, the value of which may not exceed the original purchase price. Authorized service repair receipts from three (3) separate repair incidents must be sent to Us in order to qualify for replacement. Product failures must be covered by the terms and conditions of this plan. WE are not obligated to renew your plan. The “Lemon Aid” Policy does not apply under renewal coverage terms.
