Warranty Coverage

Your Motolite battery comes with a warranty designed to protect you from unexpected expenses and give you peace of mind. Understanding what’s covered helps you maximize your warranty and avoid surprises later on.

Factory Defects

If your battery fails due to factory defects like faulty materials or workmanship, you don’t need to worry. We guarantee that these issues are covered because they’re not caused by your usage or maintenance habits.  

This means you’re protected from defects that were present from the start, saving you money and stress. It’s Motolite’s way of making sure you only pay for problems that are truly within your control.

Free Replacement

When your battery fails under warranty, you’ll get a replacement unit of the same size, type, and brand absolutely free. This ensures you don’t spend extra just to get your car running again.  

Free replacement is our commitment to stand by our product and our customers. It’s not just about giving you a new battery, but about giving you peace of mind that Motolite has your back when things go wrong.

Replacement Warranty Period

If your battery is replaced under warranty, the coverage continues based on the original battery’s warranty period, minus the time it was already used. For example, if your original battery had a 24-month warranty and it failed after 12 months, your replacement battery will still be covered for the remaining 12 months.  

This fair system ensures you get the protection you deserve without confusion, helping you clearly track your warranty benefits.

Motolite Batteries Warranty Duration 

Motolite offers different warranty periods depending on the battery type and how it’s used, giving you clear expectations on coverage.

  • Motolite Gold – Enjoy up to 21 months of warranty for private use and 6 months for commercial use. 
  • Motolite Excel – Get the longest coverage with 24 months for private use and 6 months for commercial use. 
  • Motolite Enduro – Benefit from 18 months of warranty for private use, giving you dependable coverage at an affordable price. 

How to Claim a Warranty

Claiming your Motolite warranty is quick and convenient through the Motolite RES-Q app. Once your battery is registered in the app and still within the warranty period, you can head to any authorized store or service center—no need for a physical warranty card.

Simply bring your vehicle and battery for inspection, and our team will verify the issue. If it falls under your coverage, we’ll provide a replacement so you can get back on the road without delay.

Tips to Maximize Your Warranty

Proper care, correct usage, and timely maintenance not only extend your battery’s lifespan but also help you fully benefit from your Motolite warranty.

  • Follow regular maintenance practices - Check your terminals, fluid levels, and charging system to prevent issues and keep your warranty valid.
  • Keep proof of purchase safe - Store your proof of purchase and warranty cards or register your battery in the Motolite Res-Q app.
  • Use authorized service providers only - Visit Motolite service centers or authorized dealers for testing and replacements.

Conditions That Void the Warranty

Checking the details of battery warranty

Certain actions and situations can cancel your Motolite battery warranty, leaving you unprotected when problems arise. Knowing these conditions helps you avoid mistakes that could cost you time, money, and peace of mind.

Improper Installation Or Tampering

If your battery has been installed incorrectly, tampered with, or shows signs of altered labels and codes, it won’t qualify for warranty coverage. Improper handling can cause damage unrelated to factory defects, and tampering makes it impossible to verify the battery’s true condition.

Damage From Accidents, Neglect, Or Misuse

Batteries that are cracked, corroded, or damaged due to mishandling, road accidents, or neglect are not covered under warranty. These issues result from external factors, not defects, so they are considered the responsibility of the owner.

Using The Battery Outside Its Intended Application

Motolite batteries are designed specifically for automotive use, so using them for other purposes like powering appliances, boats, or deep-cycle needs will automatically void the warranty. This misuse puts excessive strain on the battery, shortening its lifespan and leading to failures outside normal conditions.

Signs Of Overcharging Or Lack Of Maintenance

If your battery shows evidence of overcharging, dried-up electrolyte, clogged vents, or poor connector care, it won’t be covered. These problems often point to improper vehicle maintenance or neglect, and since they directly affect the battery’s health, they aren’t considered manufacturer faults.

Key Takeaway  

Knowing the ins and outs of your Motolite battery warranty ensures you get the most value and protection for your investment. By being aware of the coverage, conditions, and ways to claim, you’ll avoid surprises and keep your vehicle powered reliably for years.
