E85 Superethanol kit: who guarantees disorders?

2022-01-12T12:28:33.177Z


USER'S RIGHTS - For several years, kits have been used to convert gasoline vehicles to E85. In the event of mechanical failures, what are the user's recourse?


Switching to Superethanol requires installing an approved E85 unit to allow administrative modification of the registration card following technical modifications to the vehicle and thus to travel with a compliant vehicle (therefore regularly insured).

  • What responsibility at the wheel of an “autonomous car”?

In the event of a disorder on the vehicle following the installation of an approved box, it is now the responsibility of the manufacturer of the equipment that is engaged.

A decree of February 19, 2021 relating to the installation of Superethanol E85 units now specifies that the manufacturer guarantees the preservation of the integrity of the engines, tanks, supply circuits, post-treatment systems for pollutant emissions and any part likely to come into contact with E85 fuel, of the vehicle on which a conversion device that it sells is installed.

He therefore assumes responsibility for any damage to the vehicle following installation of this device.

The manufacturer has the obligation to issue and sign a certificate of conformity and must provide the customer with a document relating to the terms of support in the event of mechanical deterioration.
