Mercury's 3+3 Year Warranty

Things to know about Mercury's

3+3=6 Year Outboard Warranty

Mercury offers a 3 + 3 = 6 years warranty on recreational outboards purchased from Jan 1st 2018 onwards in Australia.

How it works:

Your new Mercury outboard comes with a standard 3-year factory warranty and by adhering to the recommended maintenance schedule, you will be eligible for up to 3 years of bonus warranty.

To stay eligible for the +3 Year Bonus Warranty:

  • The Mercury Outboard must be sold and pre delivered by an authorised Mercury Marine dealer.
  • The Outboard must be serviced for the entire warranty period and logged online by an authorised Mercury Marine Dealer, in line with the recommended service schedule.
  • The Outboard must be serviced for the entire warranty period using genuine Mercury/Quicksilver parts and lubricants.

At OHM we can help with all of the above!

Why the 3 month inspection matters:

3 months from date of sale or 20hrs of use – whichever occurs first.

This post-sale inspection will ensure everything is operating as required on your new engine. Even if your engine has only been used for a few hours, it's important to get this inspection done by the due date.

Annual Services:

Once a year or every 100hrs of use – whichever occurs first.

Each annual service (including the 1st annual service) is calculated from the date of sale.

Annual Service Schedule:

  • 3 months from date of sale or 20hrs of use – whichever occurs first
  • 1 year from date of sale or 100hrs of use – whichever occurs first
  • 2 years from date of sale or 200hrs of use – whichever occurs first
  • 3 years from date of sale or 300hrs of use – whichever occurs first
  • 4 years from date of sale or 400hrs of use – whichever occurs first
  • 5 years from date of sale or 500hrs of use – whichever occurs first
  • 6 years from date of sale or 600hrs of use – whichever occurs first

Low hours of use
Annual services are important to ensure your valuable recreational boating time is not interrupted by starting, running or reliability problems. Sometimes, infrequent use may not alert you to minor maintenance requirements.

High hours of use
If you exceed 100hrs of use in a year, the service should be performed once 100hrs of use is reached. The +3 warranty will remain valid, regardless of hours of use, provided your engine has been serviced at least once a year or every 100hrs of use.

How to check your warranty

As authorised Mercury dealer we can help you check your warranty coverage. All we need to know is the serial number of your engine. We'll have this on file if you bought through us.
