The retailer will be responsible for obtaining prior authorisation from the Jaguar Approved Warranty Administration Claims Department. Claims telephone number: 0344 573 8055.

Important: No repair should commence until the Jaguar Approved Claims Department gives authorisation. When, and if, the vehicle is granted an MOT Certificate (VT20) the retailer will forward a copy of a completed repair invoice. All invoices should be made payable to Jaguar Land Rover Ltd, MOT Test

Warranty claim invoices and associated correspondence should be sent to:

Jaguar Approved Warranty Administration
Claims Department

The Jaguar Approved Claims Department reserves the right to examine any vehicle and subject the parts being repaired to expert assessment before commencement of any repairs. It shall be clearly understood and agreed that in the event of any dispute arising as to the extent of the liability, the decision of the assessor shall be final and binding on the Administrator and the MOT Test Warranty holder.

 Note: Claims must be notified to and invoices received by Jaguar Approved Claims Department within 30 days of the date of completion of the repairs, otherwise they cannot be accepted. Claims notified or invoices received beyond this period will be subject to review in terms of the reason for delay and it will be at the Administrator’s discretion to accept such claims. No payment can be made until the relevant invoice(s) has been received and approved by the Administrator.
