Re: Remaining warranty on Evinrude motors
Our take is that after banqruptcy resolution that commences early Feb., no warranty claims will be processed in the transition. Parts to dealers are strictly prepaid money orders (no COD's, no billing, no credit cards) Parts are sent as is with no warranty. Until someone picks up the Johnson, Evinrude division (one of the major money loser divisions) all warranties are null. The next prospective owner of the division that concerns your engine and parts (if in fact the new owner does not negotiate partial purchases within the division or reorganizes it) will pick up the business that should include warranties (the courts may force this issue). We must wait. The latest OMC engines are good ones with millions of dollars of research and tooling invested in them. Let's hope for a great owner like Penske ( who almost bought them earlier)
