Block Exemption

What is Block Exemption?

The block exemption regulation was brought in to allow customers to have their vehicles repaired without invalidating their warranties.

As stated in the Right to Repair Campaign "The Block Exemption Regulation includes elements that give the consumer the freedom to choose where they have their vehicle maintained without negating manufacturers' warranties, as long as original parts or parts of matching quality have been fitted by the repairer.  To enable repairs to be made, the vehicle manufacturer under the Block Exemption Regulation should make technical information freely available to the independent market."


So what does this mean for the consumer?

Basically it means that providing the independent garage you are using, such as Mr Clutch, use original parts or parts of matching quality, then the consumer no longer needs to pay the high prices that dealers demand and the customers warranty will remain completely valid with the dealer.


If your vehicle is within its warranty period then having it serviced with Mr Clutch will keep your warranty completely valid.
