We would like to provide you with the best possible answers to any questions you may have in view of current developments.

How is HYMER as a manufacturer dealing with the Corona crisis?
In this exceptional situation, our top priority is the health and well-being of our employees, trade partners and, of course, our customers, for whom we will continue to use all the means at our disposal to assist. Naturally, we have already taken comprehensive precautions in the course of the first public reports, which we have continuously adapted.
-
Is the planned delivery date of my vehicle guaranteed?
Our dealer network in Germany, the UK and in parts of Europe has had to temporarily suspend sales of our vehicles due to statutory regulations. At this time, we ask for your understanding as there will be an inevitable delay the delivery of your vehicle. If you have any questions, please contact your dealer directly. We are in close contact with our trade partners and keep them continuously informed about current developments.
-
Can I still pick up my vehicle from my dealer?
In the UK collections are no longer possible due to legal regulations. At this time we also ask for your understanding as all of our Retailers and Service Centres are closed, in line with the Government's request to Stay at Home. The situation is, of course, under constant review but once restrictions are lifted we very much look forward to welcoming you back into our showrooms.
We would also suggest that, once restrictions are lifted, you call ahead to your Retailer or Service Centre to check their current opening times and the services available.
-
What happens if I have arranged a workshop appointment with a HYMER dealer?
Your Service Centre will liaise with you as soon as restrictions are lifted.
-
Will I lose my warranty claim if I cannot keep to the relevant service appointments?
No, as a rule you will not lose your warranty claim. Due to the current situation, we have already extended the service intervals by six months. Please contact your dealer by telephone if you are affected by this situation.
-
Is HYMER still available to answer questions?
Of course we will continue to be available to you via the usual channels such as our website, telephone service and our social media pages. We will make every effort to deal with your request as quickly as possible, even in these times. There may be a slight delay in processing, so we ask for your understanding in advance.
Many thanks.
