GAC Motor is to unveil an unparalleled lifetime engine warranty, a groundbreaking promise that ensures every driver enjoys a lifetime of peace of mind on the road.
The manufacturer says it is breaking the mould of traditional automotive warranties. With Salvador Caetano, GAC Motor South Africa is committed to delivering exceptional quality and unbeatable customer satisfaction, the company states.
Every customer who purchased a GAC Motor vehicle in 2024 and onward will be honoured with this offer.
With a robust network of franchised sales and service dealers already established across the country, GAC Motor has ambitious plans to expand this network over the next three years, ensuring comprehensive coverage in every major town and city. This means that GAC Motor’s technical specialists will be closer than ever, ready to provide top-notch sales services, after-sales care, and warranty support.
To keep the warranty intact, vehicle service and repairs must be conducted at GAC Motor-authorised service centres and must use approved parts. This is standard practice in the industry. This offer is valid for the vehicle's first owner and requires a traceable service history recorded within the authorized GAC Motor service centres.
“We’re excited to bring this extraordinary lifetime warranty to the South African market. At GAC Motor South Africa, we are dedicated to innovation, delivering the highest quality products and services for our customers. We invite South African motorists to experience the thrill of driving the Emzoom and Emkoo today,” says Leslie Ramsoomar, CEO of GAC Motor SA.
