Answer 5:
My new Cessna Aircraft has a defective part. What is the procedure to make a warranty claim?

It is our company policy to provide the quickest solution possible when these situations arise. Please feel free to contact us to assist you with troubleshooting any problems that you may encounter with equipment under warranty. Once the problem has been identified,  if a replacement part is required we will order the part and ship it immediately. The manufacturer has exchange programs for certain components (such as indicators, pumps, etc.). For these components, we will send you an RX (remanufactured exchange) unit to replace the failed part in conjunction with Cessna's policy. For avionics replacement, we will need to have the unit part number, the serial number and the description of the problem or defect prior to being able to order a replacement unit.

All parts sent to you under warranty will be invoiced at the time of shipment, pending the return and acceptance of the failed part by the vendor. When the part arrives at your facility, install the new part and return the failed unit to us at 13691 S.W. 145th Court, Miami, FL 33186.

In addition to the failed part, we will need copies of the logbook entries evidencing the date of failure and the date the replacement unit was installed. In addition, a copy of the work order from the shop that performed the work is required to obtain reimbursement for the labor charges associated with replacing the defective part.

Cessna has set guidelines for the time allowed to perform certain troubleshooting measures and the removal and installation for each component. Cessna's warranty credit for labor will be issued in accordance with these standards. If your repair shop exceeds the permissible hours, credit will not be given for their extra labor charges. Accordingly, we advise our customers to confirm Cessna's standard removal and installation charges with us prior to approving your repair station's work order. This will enable you to negotiate the price of the removal and installation charges with the repair station within Cessna's limits.

Once Cessna has determined that the returned item was covered under warranty, we will credit your account. Items that are supplied as warranty replacements will be noted as such on our sales order. We do not expect you to settle the invoices for these warranty items while the units have been returned and the credit approvals are pending. However, should Cessna determine that the returned unit was not defective or is not covered under warranty, our invoice will need to be settled in accordance with the terms of your account.
