Volvo Construction Equipment is bringing back its Million Ton Guarantee, a North American after-purchase program that gives customers of Volvo 7000 Series asphalt pavers manufacturer support for the replacement of auger and conveyor system wear parts over a five-year period.
The name of the program is based on a U.S. national average of 250,000 tons of asphalt laid per year, totaling slightly more than a million tons over five years or work seasons.
The Volvo Million Ton Guarantee was first introduced at ConExpo in 2014 or machines sold that year. The relaunched program is available on P7110B tracked and P7170B wheeled asphalt pavers purchased by June 30, 2020, with the five-year timeframe beginning at the time the paver is purchased by the end user. Customers have 30 days after purchase to enroll in the program.
For the duration of the program, the machine owner will have access to three rebuilds as determined by the wear check manual from Volvo CE. Parts will be covered in a tiered approach:
- The first rebuild will be 100% covered by Volvo.
- The second rebuild will be 50% covered by Volvo.
- The third rebuild will be 25% covered by Volvo. If additional rebuilds are required, Volvo will cover parts at 25% with a pre-approved warranty claim.
Volvo has continued adding service offerings to its P7110B and P7170B asphalt pavers, including the availability of ActiveCare Direct, Volvo’s advanced telematics system, and the Lifetime Frame and Structure Warranty, both added in 2019.
More information on the Volvo Million Ton Guarantee will be available in Volvo booth F3432 in the outdoor Festival Grounds at CONEXPO-CON/AGG 2020 as well as through authorized Volvo dealers following the show.
