5+2+1 Single Source Warranty

Lakota Corporation, hereinafter "Lakota," warrants its products to be free from defects in materials and workmanship for a period of five (5) years from the date of purchase by the Original Purchaser, “Original Purchase Date.” Such warranty extends only to the original Purchaser (the first person, firm, or entity to purchase the trailer from Lakota or a Lakota authorized dealer) upon satisfactory compliance with the following conditions:

1. The warranty extended hereby covers only the “Frame Assembly” i.e. the side rails, side and roof extrusions, floor cross members, and sub-frame assemblies. Components such as doors, gates, dividers and such other material as are attached directly to the Frame Assembly shall be limited in warranty to one (1) year from the date of Original Purchase.

2. Components not manufactured by Lakota are covered only by the warranties extended by the manufacturers of such components, and not by Lakota. Such non-warranted components include but are not limited to: tires, wheels, coupler, jacks, hub caps, axles, suspension components, hubs, drums, brakes, and all parts associated therewith. Requests for warranty adjustments on these items shall be made directly to their manufacturers, whose names and addresses will be furnished by Lakota to purchaser upon request.

3. No warranty is extended for damage caused by operator error in failing to torque tighten all lug nuts, check tire condition, braking abilities and all other conditions normally associated with normal trailer operation. Additionally, operator error in failing to properly attach the trailer to the towing vehicle as prescribed by federal regulations and hitch specifications shall void any warranty otherwise made herein.

4. No warranty is extended for normal wear items, including but not limited to brakes, light bulbs, tires, brake linings, hoses and sealants.

5. This warranty shall not apply to any damage due to loading in excess of the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating displayed on the trailer. Use of the trailer for any purpose not intended shall constitute misuse and shall void this warranty.

6. This warranty shall be automatically void if any modification to the trailer is made without prior written authorization for such from Lakota.

7. Only a Lakota authorized dealer who has received prior written authorization from Lakota for such specific service or repair, or one of Lakota’s factory locations, shall be authorized to service or correct any defect in material or workmanship found in any trailer covered by this warranty.

8. Prior written authorization from Lakota for any specific repairs and/or adjustments shall be received before any reimbursements shall be made.

9. This warranty does not cover any economic loss including without limitation; payment for the loss of time or pay, inconvenience, loss of trailer use, trailer rental expense, lodging bills, meals, other travel costs, storage charges and other incidental or consequential loss or damage of whatsoever nature.

10. Lakota and its authorized dealers reserve the right to make design changes in trailers built and/or sold by them at any time without incurring any obligation to make the same or similar changes to trailers previously built and/or sold by them.

11. This warranty shall apply, and service and/or repairs shall be made only upon prior written approval by Lakota. Lakota, at its option, prior to approval for service and/or repairs pursuant to this warranty, may require delivery of the damaged part, freight pre-paid, to Lakota’s factory location, 4 Stoutco Dr / PO Box 219 / Bristol, IN 46507, providing the damaged trailer for inspection by Lakota’s authorized representative at Lakota’s factory location or at a location selected by Lakota or by providing color photographs of the damaged trailer or to or from any alternative location Lakota may designate as a location for service and/or repair of the damaged trailer.

THIS WARRANTY IS EXPRESSLY MADE IN LIEU OF ANY AND ALL OTHER WARRANTIES EXPRESSED OR OF IMPLIED, INCLUDING THE WARRANTIES OF FITNESS AND MERCHANTABILITY FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE; AND IS LIMITED IN DURATION TO THE TERM SPECIFIED HEREIN, AND NO PERSON, FIRM, OR ENTITY IS AUTHORIZED TO MAKE ANY FURTHER OR ADDITIONAL WARRANTIES ON BEHALF OF LAKOTA CORPORATION.
