Swift Group Warranties

All illustrations and descriptions in the handbook are intended to give a general idea of what a Swift holiday/park home ("Home") might look like. Changing market and supply situations and our policy of continuous product development may prevent us from maintaining the exact specifications detailed in this handbook.

We therefore reserve the right to alter specifications as materials and conditions demand. Your Home is manufactured by Swift Group Limited (“Swift”). Dealers and/or park operators are not agents of Swift and have absolutely no authority to bind the manufacturer by any express or implied undertaking or representation.

Your Home has three warranties:

3 Year SuperSure Warranty

Subject to the conditions, terms and exclusions set out in this section of the handbook, Swift will repair (or, at its option, replace) any defective parts of your Home that comes to light during the SuperSure Warranty Period. This applies to all parts and fittings of your Home (other than the structural exterior). The SuperSure Warranty Period means 36 months from the date an approved Swift Group Dealer, or Park Operator [transfers/hands over] the Home to its first owner.
