What is the difference between QBase, Q3 and Q5?

QBase covers engine and gearbox (essential). Q3 extends coverage to the most relevant vehicle components. Q5 offers maximum coverage with no deductible and no upfront payment.

How long does it take to get repair authorisation?

Quality1 guarantees repair authorisation within 15 minutes of notification, to minimise vehicle downtime.

Do I need to advance repair costs?

No, in Switzerland Quality1 pays the garage directly. No upfront financial outlay is required from the customer.

Does the Quality1 car warranty also cover electric vehicles?

Yes, Quality1 offers coverage for electric and hybrid vehicles. Statistics show that electronic defects, suspension and ECUs are the most frequent faults for EVs.

What happens if I sell the vehicle with a Quality1 warranty?

The Quality1 warranty is tied to the vehicle, not the owner. In the event of a sale, the warranty automatically transfers to the new buyer.
