Vehicle Warranty Information

At Fuji Automotive, we check all cars before we sell to ensure that they are road worthy when you leave the lot!

Our Free Standard warranty will cover Engine and Transmission issues (powertrain warranty) for the next 1,000 kilometers driven or for 1 month, whichever comes first. However, Please NOTE vehicles exceeding the age of 20 years & to include all European made vehicle such as BMW is sold as seen which means you are on your own once you take ownership, in regards to old vehicles, once vehicle is inspected and in good mechanical order, once delivery has taken place Fuji Automotive cannot be held responsible for any failures of any kind due to age, in regards to the European vehicle the reason for exclusion to warranty is because it is easier for previous owners to manipulate servicing and warning lamps to be turned off prior to sending to auction. Team Fuji Automotive apologies in advance for this clause.

​

We want you to be satisfied with your car purchase! During test drives, if any faults or flaws are determined to exist on your new vehicle, we will take care of those issues before you take delivery of that vehicle! In addition, we will provide vehicles with basic maintenance, such as with changing oil and fluids. We make sure brakes and tires comply to what is required in order to pass Japanese safety inspection, in the event inspection is failed due to low tread we change them at no charge. Concerning the car's onboard battery we will check if it’s more than 2 years old, and if it is over that age we will change it. In addition, if the test meter indicates low power or the engine will not immediately turn over, we charge the battery and run the vehicle till it is good to go at next startup. 

 

Fuji Automotive standard warranty plan does NOT cover THE FOLLOWING, (Manual Cars, Clutch or transmission not covered from when you drive away, this is mainly due to certain individuals ability to drive manual correctly and additional clutch use can breakdown quickly) electronic parts, such as window controls, air conditioning power, steering system, Brakes, CV boots, drive shaft boots, suspension, shocks and any other components are not part of our limited powertrain warranty! This additionally means that the vehicle's suspension, coil overs, dampers, and mounts of any kind will not be covered by our warranty. Please be advised that these are used cars and your test drive is for you to not only see if the car is right in size and options but to also point out any concerns to be addressed prior to delivery, after delivery smaller things like lights, lightbulbs, Interior lamps, check engine lights, ignition coils and spare plugs also we CANNOT cover as the vehicle ages. 

​

Since we never know how the car is treated once it’s off our lot, things such as engine oil leakage, radiator leakage, AC compressor failures and ETC can happen after purchase such as when the vehicle is revved high, driven over obstacles, driven recklessly, or the vehicle underside is damaged so please drive carefully.

 

Please note! The Japanese authorities will not pass the vehicle during inspection if there’s any leakage of any fluids or if there’s any check engine or other systems warning lights on. In so meaning that when we have possession of the vehicle they are in good condition to the best of our knowledge and we are selling them as such! It should be understood that used cars can have their own failure points at any time.
