Under what conditions would Byrider assist a licensee in obtaining warranties for hardware and equipment?

Byrider Franchise · 2025 FDD

Answer from 2025 FDD Document

LICENSOR PROVIDES NO WARRANTY WHATSOEVER FOR ANY HARDWARE OR EQUIPMENT PROVIDED TO LICENSEE.

THAT HARDWARE AND EQUIPMENT IS PROVIDED BY LICENSOR STRICTLY AS IS.

The original manufacturer of that hardware and equipment may, however, provide warranties that may be passed through or otherwise available to Licensee.

If so, Licensor will assist Licensee in obtaining any such warranties for Licensee's benefit and use.

Licensee shall not, however, hold Licensor responsible in any way for any defects or damage in the hardware or equipment not caused solely by Licensor's intentional misconduct.

What This Means (2025 FDD)

According to Byrider's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, Byrider itself provides no warranties for any hardware or equipment provided to the licensee; such hardware and equipment is provided strictly "as is." However, the original manufacturer of the hardware and equipment may provide warranties. If such warranties exist, Byrider states that it will assist the licensee in obtaining them for the licensee's benefit and use.

This means that while Byrider does not directly guarantee the performance or condition of the hardware and equipment, it will help a franchisee navigate the process of claiming any applicable manufacturer warranties. This assistance is contingent on the original manufacturer offering a warranty in the first place.

It is important for a prospective Byrider franchisee to understand that Byrider's assistance is limited to facilitating access to the manufacturer's warranty, and Byrider will not be responsible for any defects or damage to the hardware or equipment unless caused by Byrider's intentional misconduct. A franchisee should clarify with Byrider what specific steps this assistance entails and what documentation or information they would need to provide to receive this support.
