Anyway i assure that no dealer or factory will change your helmet for a replacement unless the defect is so great it cannot be avoided , again forget getting any warranty on a cracked helmet!!! May i also remind you all that helmets have an expiry time also . ABS helmets have a life span of maximum 5years if the ABS is high standard on fibre helmets this life is to a maximum of 10 years , in Europe for example its 3 yrs for abs and 5 years for fibre. Here we go into mathematics too shelf life 7 years for all helmets but life begins as soon you ride and the the helmet is exposed to sunlight, rain fumes, so it needs to be thrown in the trash after 3 years if abs and 5 years if fibre, use it any longer then its in gods hands, but then again you have so many brands which are very low cost here i would not trust them for longer than a year , remember the cheaper the worst but be aware of designer helmets which cost a lot and could not be so great in strength. I LOVE HELMETS more than BIKES :)) cycleplanet April 8th, 2008, 03:32 PM have you asked what is the warranty on shark helmets? was the warranty explained? How is it applied? cycleplanet April 8th, 2008, 03:36 PM You have recently purchased a SHARK helmet for your safety and pleasure. It has been designed with the greatest care to satisfy your every requirement. For your safety, and that of your passenger, you must respect all the usual rules of prudence when using your two-wheeled vehicle. The SHARK 5-YEAR warranty guarantees the initial purchaser that any possible manufacturing fault or material defect will be covered by the SHARK warranty. LIMITATIONS If during the warranty period (5 years as from the date of purchase), a problem covered by the warranty were to arise, SHARK, through the intermediary of its sales network, undertakes to repair or replace any defective components, up to a maximum limit which is the purchase value of the helmet. Any labour costs are normally paid by the SHARK network, but are submitted for approval prior to the work being carried out. If the repair requires components to be dispatched incurring transportation costs, the SHARK network shall cover these costs up to a limit which is the cost of transport by the national postal service at the normal rate. EXCLUSIONS This warranty only covers problems related to materials or manufacturing. SHARK cannot be held liable with regard to the product in the following cases: Any damage following: 1) a fall or accident 2) a technical modification made by the user or a third party (glue, adhesives, paint, screws, etc.) 3) use of or contact with: harmful chemical products (including methylated spirits on the visor treatments), or an intense heat source 4) incorrect use: abnormal conditions (e.g. underwater), lack of maintenance or care 5) ageing due to normal wear of the inner fabrics or foams, the appearance of the external parts, or the visor (scratches, marks, etc.) 6) abnormal and prolonged exposure to ultra-violet light, in particular for the decorative colours. In addition, SHARK cannot consider subjective considerations related to use of the helmet as defects covered by the warranty: problems with comfort, size, noise or whistling, aerodynamics, etc. SHARK cannot be held liable for the temporary non-availability of the helmet while it is being enhanced to satisfy the needs of its owner. In all cases, the maximum warranty period is 5 years. Replacement of a component during this period does not prolong this period. PROCEDURE When the helmet is sold the warranty card comprising all the information must be filled out and returned to SHARK SA by the purchaser. All warranty claims must be made to the SHARK dealer that sold the helmet. For a warranty claim to be considered, the purchaser must notify the dealer of the problem that has arisen, and return the helmet that is the subject of the claim, together with the warranty card filled out when the helmet was purchased. The present warranty is valid solely in member states of the European Union. This warranty does not affect in any way the statutory rights of the purchaser as stipulated by directive 1999/44CE. The effects of this specific and limited warranty shall come to an end after a period of 5 years as from the date of purchase. After this period, if you continue to use a helmet regularly, we recommend that to benefit from optimum protection and comfort you should replace your helmet. This is because certain external factors - general wear, certain impacts - could be prejudicial to the safety characteristics of this essential piece of protective equipment. LIMIT SHARK reserves the right to carry out work within the terms of the warranty using replacement parts from the most recent version compatible with the model concerned, and is unable to guarantee perfect harmonisation of the paint or decorative elements associated with specific production runs and/or limited editions. In addition, the natural deterioration of colours over a period of time can cause mismatching in the adaptation of colours of spare parts. If SHARK is unable to carry out the repair for technical reasons or because a component is not available, SHARK undertakes to make the customer an advantageous offer, taking account of the age of the helmet, consisting in either an identical new helmet or an equivalent model manufactured at the time of the repair, if the original model is no longer available. cycleplanet April 8th, 2008, 03:46 PM Read the warranty carefully : and you will notice that what i said is basically right. on the otherhand im sorry to say READ it and you will notice the warranty is not for Philippines . The present warranty is valid solely in member states of the European Union. This warranty does not affect in any way the statutory rights of the purchaser as stipulated by directive 1999/44CE. So i cannot see how any shark dealer is going to help here in philippines unless they have an agreement with the factory of shark in thailand oh yes they are made in thailand - fibre version the plastic ones made in spain/portugal and Shark is a French brand but they do not manufacture the helmets only design them. kanuto123 April 8th, 2008, 03:53 PM have you asked what is the warranty on shark helmets? was the warranty explained?
