The Swiss car market and warranty

In Switzerland, the legal warranty (art. 197 CO) provides 2 years of coverage for hidden defects, but it is often reduced to 1 year or excluded contractually for used cars.

  • Legal warranty: limited to hidden defects, often reduced for used cars
  • Dealer warranty: offered by the dealer, variable duration
  • Insurance warranty: underwritten by Allianz, Helvetia, etc.
  • Our advice: combine legal + insurance warranty for maximum protection
