WARRANTY AND FIELD SERVICE ACTIONS WARRANTY AND FIELD SERVICE ACTIONS
The Company provides a manufacturer’s warranty on new consumer vehicles. A warranty reserve is recorded at the time of sale and once a specific field service action has been identified. The amount reserved is comprised of an actuarial estimate of the projected costs to repair, replace, or adjust defective component parts under the applicable warranty period and the estimated cost of identified field service actions. These estimates are based on an analysis of actual claims incurred to date and future expectations about the nature, frequency, and cost of future claims by vehicle cohort, which may leverage benchmark data. The Company re-evaluates the adequacy of the warranty reserve on a regular basis and makes revisions when appropriate. Warranty estimates are inherently uncertain, especially given the Company’s limited history of sales, and more historical experience or updates to projections and benchmarks may cause material changes to the warranty reserve in the future.
