Warranty and Satisfaction Guarantee, Fuel360 Limited (Revised 2026)
Satisfaction Guarantee
Fuel360 Limited stands fully behind every product it sells. If for any reason you are not completely satisfied with your purchase, whether due to product quality, performance, packaging, or any other concern, you are entitled to a full refund or replacement, at your choice, with no questions asked. Simply contact us within 30 days of receiving your order.
This guarantee exists because our products work, and we are confident in that. If they do not work for you, we do not want your money.
Lifetime Warranty
All Products supplied by Fuel360 Limited are covered by a lifetime warranty. There is no time limit on this warranty. It does not matter how old the product is. If it fails, we will replace it or refund it, in full, without dispute.
Specifically, the lifetime warranty covers:
-
Products that are defective in materials or manufacture, regardless of when the defect becomes apparent;
-
Products showing visible changes in colour or consistency that affect their quality or performance;
-
Products with damaged or compromised packaging received in that condition;
-
Tablets that stick together or are otherwise unusable;
-
Any product that does not meet a Client's reasonable expectations when used according to instructions.
Where a product is found to be faulty or unsatisfactory under any of the above, Fuel360 Limited will, at the Client's election, provide a full replacement or a full refund of the purchase price paid, with no charge to the Client for return shipping or handling.
Please note that the Lifetime Warranty and Satisfaction Guarantee are suspended while any account with Fuel360 Limited remains overdue. Full warranty rights are reinstated upon payment of all outstanding amounts.
Warranty Exclusions
The lifetime warranty does not cover:
-
Damage resulting from incorrect dosing, misuse, or failure to follow supplied instructions;
-
Damage caused by unauthorised modification or tampering;
-
Water ingress or contamination not attributable to the product itself;
-
Filter blockages resulting from overdosing that mobilises pre-existing sludge or resins in a fuel system.
FuelRight Specific
FuelRight products meet or exceed ISO 4406 Clean Fuel Standards. Normal dosing as instructed prevents sludge formation. Overdosing or use in heavily contaminated systems may mobilise existing deposits. This is a characteristic of the cleaning action, not a product defect.
Fair Trading Act
Fuel360 Limited warrants that all product claims are accurate when Products are used as directed. Liability under fitness-for-purpose provisions is limited to the value of the Product supplied.
