Aston Martin is looking to help its customers around the world by extending all new-vehicle warranties that are due to expire or have expired either since March 14 or January 1st (in case of China), to June 30, 2020.
The British carmaker is working closely with its dealer network in order to facilitate this strategy, meant to mitigate potential effects of lockdowns associated with the COVID-19 pandemic.
Servicing requirements are also being relaxed, with owners now not having to worry about failing to adhere to specified intervals, which before would have invalidated their warranty coverage. This rule is being waived until restrictions change and appropriate dealer operations resume.

So as of right now, all Aston Martin cars serviced within three months or 2,000 miles (whichever comes first) of the in-car service indicator will be protected in full via warranty. So if you need to take your Aston into the shop, know that delaying the visit will not invalidate your warranty – unless you were supposed to do so before the lockdown started.
“For all of us, the COVID-19 pandemic and associated lockdown has been, and will continue to be, a very trying time,” said Aston Martin director of client services, Andy West.
“While issues such as car maintenance and warranty cover are, quite rightly, not top of mind for many we want to let our customers know that in partnership with our global dealer network we are doing all we can to support them, and their sports cars, through this period and will be looking forward to helping them get back behind the wheel of their beloved Aston Martin sports cars when it is safe and appropriate to do so.”
