Kubota (UK) Ltd have announced that they have extended their range of Kubota Care tractor warranty packages to include a five-year term that now offers up to 6,000-hours of protection.

The company says this latest option provides an additional 1,000 hours of cover over and above the previous maximum Kubota Care term of five years/5,000 hours.

Available on M6-002 and M7-003 models, this latest warranty extension can be selected up to 30 days following the installation date of the new tractor purchase.

Tim Yates, Kubota (UK)’s agricultural and ground care sales manager said, "We’ve offered a five year/5,000-hour warranty option across the M-series for a few years, but we’ve recognised that M6-002 and M7-003 models are those that are likely to be worked longer and harder. And this has led to the extension of our existing five year/5,000-hour package to a five year/6,000-hour option.”

Kubota Care is an extended warranty scheme that is backed by Kubota, and is not a third-party insurance policy. As such, Kubota Care does not require customers to pay an excess for any warranty claims that may arise.

In addition, any unused Kubota Care warranty is also transferrable with the tractor when supported by a full service history from the Kubota dealer network.
