Yanmar launched the MAX-Guard extended warranty program for its ASV-branded compact track loaders. This program offers up to three additional years or 3,000 hours of coverage beyond the standard warranty, extending total protection to five years or 5,000 hours. Customers can choose from three plan levels: Comprehensive, Powertrain and Powertrain Plus Hydraulics. All service is conducted through authorized ASV dealers to ensure consistency in repair and maintenance quality.
“ MAX-Guard reflects our promise to stand behind our equipment well beyond the point of sale,” explained Buck Storlie, director of aftermarket at Yanmar Compact Equipment North America. The warranty plans are fully transferable and can be purchased anytime during the base coverage period, giving customers added resale value and flexibility. The MAX-Guard launch follows the earlier introduction of Ycare, a similar extended warranty for the Yanmar Compact Equipment brand.
