NO WARRANTY FOR OLD SALEEN?

[Get the latest "Truth With Speedzzter" here]

Autoblog is reporting that neither MJ Acquisitions nor Saleen, Inc. will honor warranty claims on Saleen vehicles built before the asset sale.

If true, this is a huge black-eye for the Saleen brand.

"Truth With Speedzzter" wonders about the go-forward value of the brand if the warranty issue is not immediately resolved. Who wants to buy an expensive tuner car from someone that's not committed to customer satisfaction and "making good" on their products?

Obviously, Saleen owners are not left without remedy. But remedies such as litigation and aftermarket extended warranties are not cheap or convenient.

EDITOR'S NOTE: After this post was published, Steve Saleen announced that SMS would step up to cover the warranty obligations on vintage Saleens.

The brand is damaged goods. No wonder Steve Saleen bailed out when he had the chance to start SMS.
