Service reviews from riders like you

Great service. Got a tune up recently which included a full breakdown of the bike for washing, reassembly, and a few new parts. I shopped around before getting this done, and Trek was the most reasonably priced. While other shops were estimating weeks to complete service, Trek estimated max three days. They had it done in less than 24 hours, with the bike looking and feeling like new. –Zacariah O.

I have bike shops closer to me, but it's worth the 40-minute drive for the service I receive. Repairs are done right, the employees are honest, and the prices are affordable. Most recently, I had my bike in for a shot wheel, and Chris turned the entire bike around in about 36 hours. Wheel was replaced, and they even threw in complimentary checks/adjustments on my brakes, headset, chain, etc. I'm so thankful I came to Trek! Bike is good as new! – Alec M.

I've received amazing service both times that I've visited. It didn't even matter that the part I was searching for retailed for only $2.50. The front desk and service staff treated me the same as if I was purchasing a $10,000 bike. I'll always go there for parts, service, and inspiration because the team is really top notch. – G.Z.

Questions for those who have gone thru Trek warranty

  • Add to quote

I own a 2011 Trek Remedy 9.9. I purchased the frame from a LBS. Thus, it's a custom build. It suffered a failure in rear triangle recently. I've dropped off the entire bike at the LBS the frame was purchased at. The LBS said if and when I do receive the replacement part from Trek, to continue to have "Life Time Warranty" to original owner, the LBS must remove the parts off the bike, install replacement part on frame, then install my parts on to frame. LBS labor will be about $200. My response was, I purchased this Trek as frame only and have the warranty. Why would warranty be different with the replacement triangle if I built the bike again? I did indicate the LBS will install the replacement triangle. LBS said Trek want to ensure the bike is built correctly. Is this LBS(chain store in SoCal) trying to gouge me? Or is this REALLY Trek's policy?

So you don't want to pay the $200 to the shop for installing the parts on your frame? Doesn't seem like that big of a rip to get a new carbon rear triangle for $200. For some perspective: they charged me $500 for an aluminum main triangle for a 6 month old frame which they said i crashed (I didn't). I fought with them, called and emailed around and around in circles for more than a month during prime riding season in the NW. In the end I had to give up and pay them for my new frame (which doesn't match the old frame, by the way). My advice, save yourself some time and energy, pay the $200 and get riding again. Edit: Trek offers what is called a "limited lifetime warranty" which, as far as I know, won't cover "crash damage", damage to the rear triangle or damage to carbon parts which is not caused by a manufacturer defect. It sucks to have to pay for it, trust me I know, but I don't think you're getting ripped off.  

I would say it is a bike shop thing. I got a replacement rear triangle and frame from two different shops fixed the bikes myself. I did get that line from a shop when I first took a bike in( Superfly 100 2010) and the swing arm pivot was lose in the frame and they had to send it back to Trek to get repaired. I had to pay shipping and to have the bike put back together after bringing the shop the frame stripped down. It was a problem with manufacturing and design so I was a little upset. I was new to MB so did not know any better and how weird the bike manufactures warranties are.  

The LBS said Trek will sell me the rear angle for $532 under their crash replacement program. Like you I did not crash. I have three other Trek FS rigs I can ride in the mean time. I wonder if Garmin ride data will sway Trek's decision.

Haven't read through all the trek fine print to know if that's really policy or not, I will say however that it is the LBS's job to make sure the old damaged swing arm or frame is destroyed, so at least at the shop I work at that's part of why most of the time we swap the parts (eg. customer can install his own swing arm but they would have to bring the old one in before we could release it). Also don't want to comment on general warranty vs. non-warranty issues, but let's just say I wouldn't want to have the warranty guys job at trek or any bicycle company for that matter... Also, seems like a lot of people

Warranty is almost ALWAYS parts only, no labor. That said - the shop does not HAVE to charge labor. It will take time and money for them to install it, so they are trying to recover their losses on that. My shop had never done any warranty work for me, I do it all myself, but I used to work there (18 years ago). I did snap a swingarm on my '08 Fuel, and took it to the shop I bought it at, and I did pay for labor to install the swingarm myself. Trek's Warranty page shows it does not cover for labor as well. Again, the shop does not HAVE to charge for labor, but Trek does not reimburse the shop for labor. I would think however, that they should have to put the frame back together, but nothing else. I do kind of question the "we must do it to show it was back together right", as it is not uncommon to completely disassemble and rebuild frames and swingarms (pivots) and not void a warranty.  

I've had to replace a couple of Trek frames through the years. My local Trek shop in SD has never asked to charge or given me flack to do the swap myself. It has been a couple of years since the last time. I can't say if their policy has changed in the meantime.  

I understand the that Trek will require the LBS to install the new rear triangle. My concern is the LBS is not assembling a bike from just a frame. LBS will install the seatstay, chainstay, rear brake caliper, rear derailleur, and crank. Did Trek start using a different rear 12x142 rear axle? The LBS said Trek doesn't use the RockShox Maxle anymore.  

$175 for me to get parts transferred over. All things considered, I find it quite reasonable.  

trek warranty frame replacement

I work part time (weekends) at a local bike shop. We offer a 'deluxe' tune up where we basically disassemble the bike, wash the parts in the parts washer, true the wheels if necessary, and reassemble/readjust the bike, at a cost of $85 plus a few bucks for 'shop supplies'. $200 seems like they have you over a barrel and are taking advantage to a some extent. JMHO. Do you have to have that shop do the work? Just get a receipt that a shop did in fact do the work.

This "voiding warranty" thing is a bunch of crap. NO WHERE in Trek's warranty does it state a shop MUST DO repairs (Such as shock removal) or your warranty is void. If that was the case, you would not be able to so much as do ANYTHING to your bike without voiding a warranty. I would email Trek's corporate headquarters and let them know about that. I can see "certain" things needing to be done at a shop (due to tools needed, like a swingarm replacement), but I would still argue that as well. You should be able to take a shock or fork into a dealer, show it to them, and it be under warranty. EVEN taking a cracked swingarm in by itself should not VOID a warranty.  

Yes I think it's absolute crap too. I have sent an email to Treks head office in Australia about the warranty issues/ charges and the statements the local Trek dealer has made regarding voiding my warranty. Trek have responded with a email stating that the dealer will be in contact?? None of my questions regarding the voiding of warranty were answered in the email that I received or why I should be paying for part of the repairs. My next step will be lodging a claim with the Australian office of fair trading if they can't sort the issues. While Treks Warranty covers parts and no labour. In Australia (Queensland) regardless of what the manufacturers warranty states all products sold have to meet certain consumer guarantees as outlined by the government office of fair trading. It's beyond a joke and to say I'm frustrated is an understatement. 5 weeks after purchasing the new bike it sits in the shed still missing parts. Consumer guarantees your products must meet | Your rights, crime and the law | Queensland Government  

Yeah based on my exp that sounds like BS. I had an 08 Rig crack the weld where the seat tube meets the top tube. I EXPLICITLY told the LBS I would be doing my own work to swap everything. I even spoke with the trek rep himself to make sure that was ok and he said it was no problem. Just call Trek and give them your serial number and talk to them.  

Yes agreed. I have contacted Trek Australia who replied to the first email but didn't answer any of the questions that I asked about the warranty. I have sent another email asking the same questions about the local bike shop statements and am still waiting for a reply. It seems to take a week to get a response. I'm over it  

This is all garbage and it's your LBS taking you for a ride. Like 95% of them seem to do. I just broke my chainstay and dropped off a totally disassembled frame, even though I purchased the bike whole. I'd rather do the work myself as I enjoy it, and get to spend money on parts instead of labor. My LBS and Trek were both cool with this. Although I did have to get angry and escalate to managers to even get this thing warrantied.

I don't know whether it is a Trek requirement that the authorized dealer rebuild it in order for the life time warranty to apply but you should ask the shop manager and owner (if available) about this point. The contact trek as well if you are still uncertain. you could also go to another trek dealer and ske them, too. next thing is the $200. The shop will charge you labor assembly, that is standard practice. that amount does seem a bit high to me. again, there are lots of authorized Trek dealers and you can ask another shop, just call them and ask service how much to assemble a ___. In this case they will be assembling the bearings and pivot, however everything else is already on the bike right? I guess they have to remount rear brake and rear mech and they will tune the rear mech... anyway, it seem a little high. if you bought this bike new from them I'd expect like $150 tops, but I am cheapo.  

Just a quick update on the outcome of the faulty DRCV shock claim and the local Trek bike shop. Collected the bike from the local bike shop 2 weeks ago and was told that there was nothing wrong with the shock but they rebuilt it anyway. I firmly disputed this statement with the owner as it can't be normal to lose 50 plus psi from the shock in a 30 minute ride and have that much oil leak out. I didn't bother to challenge the owner on their claims of voiding warranty as by this stage it was pointless and he didn't seem interested in listening. I paid my freight fee and vowed never to return to the shop again. I really hope that Trek Australia look at how they (LBS) operate as it's not doing their sales much good. Two weeks on and about 6-8 hours of riding at the local trails at Rowallan Park (Mackay) and the rear shock is now performing faultlessly. No oil leaks what so ever and it now retains air pressure week to week. So much for the LBS claims of nothing wrong with it? A big thanks to Ryan at Trek Australia for your prompt and professional help sorting the problematic local bike shop and their false claims regarding the warranty and the charges. Feels great to finally be back out riding again. Regardless of the issues it's still a great bike.. but a great bike is no good without a good shop to back you up when things go wrong or need upgrading.

I'm glad to hear your bike is fixed, but it really sucks when you have to deal with a bad bike shop. Happy Riding!!! My Bikes--2014 Trek Fuel 8-29er, 2014 Trek Crossrip Elite, 2015 Trek Farley 6.

It is important to carefully review the terms and conditions of each warranty to understand what is covered and for how long. If you experience any issues with your Trek bicycle, contacting your local Trek dealer or their customer service department will help you navigate the warranty process and get your bike repaired or replaced.

Standard warranty coverage

When you purchase a Trek bike, it comes with a standard warranty that provides coverage for certain parts and components of the bicycle. This warranty ensures that you are protected in case of manufacturing defects or other issues that may arise with your bike.

What does the standard warranty cover?

The standard warranty coverage for Trek bicycles includes replacement or repair of defective parts and components. This means that if any part of your bike breaks or malfunctions due to a manufacturing defect, Trek will take care of it for you.

Some of the parts commonly covered under the standard warranty include:

It’s important to note that the warranty only covers defects that occur during normal use of the bicycle. Damage caused by accidents, misuse, or neglect is not covered under the standard warranty.

What is the duration of the standard warranty?

The duration of the standard warranty may vary depending on the specific model and components of your Trek bike. Generally, Trek offers a lifetime warranty on the frame of their bicycles. Other parts and components may have different warranty durations, typically ranging from one to five years.

It’s always best to check the warranty details provided by Trek for your specific bike model to know the exact duration of coverage.

How to claim warranty coverage?

If you encounter any issues with your Trek bicycle that are covered under the standard warranty, you will need to contact your local Trek retailer or the authorized Trek dealer where you purchased the bike. They will guide you through the process of filing a warranty claim and ensure that your bike is repaired or the defective parts are replaced.

It’s important to keep your proof of purchase handy when making a warranty claim. This will help expedite the process and ensure that your claim is processed smoothly.

In conclusion, Trek’s standard warranty coverage provides peace of mind and protection for your bike investment. By covering the repair or replacement of defective parts, Trek ensures that you can enjoy your ride without worrying about potential manufacturing issues.

If you want additional protection for your Trek bicycle, you may want to consider the extended warranty options available. These options provide coverage beyond the standard warranty and can give you peace of mind knowing that your bike is protected.

With an extended warranty, you can have your bike repaired or replaced if it experiences any issues or damage covered by the warranty. This includes defects in materials or workmanship, as well as issues that arise during normal use.

Extended warranty options also typically cover the cost of parts and service needed to repair your bike. This means that you won’t have to worry about unexpected repair costs if something goes wrong with your Trek bike.

By opting for an extended warranty, you can ensure that your Trek bicycle is protected for a longer period of time. This can be especially beneficial if you plan on keeping your bike for several years or if you ride frequently and put a lot of wear and tear on your bike.

It’s important to note that extended warranty options may vary depending on the specific model of Trek bike you own. Some warranties may offer more comprehensive coverage than others, so it’s worth researching the available options to find the best fit for your needs.

When considering an extended warranty, it’s also a good idea to factor in the cost of the warranty versus the potential cost of repairs and replacements without it. While an extended warranty may require an upfront investment, it can save you money in the long run if you end up needing repairs or replacements.

In conclusion, if you want added protection and coverage for your Trek bicycle, considering an extended warranty is a wise decision. It can offer you peace of mind and ensure that your bike is always in top condition. So, explore the extended warranty options available and choose the one that best fits your needs and budget.

Warranty registration

To ensure that you receive the full benefits of Trek’s warranty coverage, it is important to register your bike as soon as possible after purchase.

Additionally, you will need to provide specific details about your bike, including the model, frame number, and purchase date.

Why should you register your bike?

Registering your bike is important for several reasons. Firstly, it ensures that you will receive prompt and efficient service in the event of a warranty claim. By having your bike registered, Trek will have all the necessary information to quickly process your warranty request and provide the appropriate resolution, whether that involves a repair or replacement of faulty parts.

How long does the warranty last?

Trek bicycles are built to last and are backed by a solid warranty program. When you purchase a Trek bicycle, you can have peace of mind knowing that your investment is protected.

The duration of the warranty may vary depending on the specific model and components of your Trek bicycle. Generally, Trek offers a limited lifetime warranty on the frame of their bicycles. This means that if there are any manufacturing defects or issues with the frame, Trek will repair or replace it free of charge.

In addition to the frame, Trek also provides warranty coverage for other parts and components of the bicycle. The duration of this coverage may differ depending on the specific part.

It is important to consult the specific warranty information provided by Trek for details on the duration of coverage for each part.

It is worth noting that Trek’s warranty does not cover normal wear and tear, misuse, or damage caused by accidents. This means that if your bicycle requires repair or replacement due to these reasons, it may not be eligible for warranty coverage. However, Trek offers excellent customer service and can assist you with any repair or replacement needs outside of warranty coverage.

Transferability of the warranty

The Trek bicycle warranty is not transferable. This means that if you sell or give away your Trek bike, the new owner will not be able to benefit from the original warranty. Only the original owner is eligible for warranty service, repair or replacement of parts.

This policy ensures that Trek can provide the best possible service and support to the original owner. By limiting the warranty to the original purchaser, Trek can maintain a direct relationship with the customer and ensure that any necessary repairs or replacements are handled efficiently.

If you are considering selling your Trek bicycle, it’s important to keep in mind that the warranty will not transfer to the new owner. However, Trek offers a wide range of options for out-of-warranty service and repair. Their authorized dealers are trained to handle any necessary repairs or replacements, even if the bike is no longer covered by warranty.

Non-warranty service and repair options

Trek provides a comprehensive range of non-warranty service options for their bikes. Their authorized dealers have access to genuine Trek parts and are trained to perform repairs and maintenance on Trek bicycles.

If your Trek bike is in need of service or repair, you can contact your nearest Trek dealer to schedule an appointment. They will be able to diagnose any issues with your bike and provide the necessary repairs or replacements.

In addition, Trek offers a “Factory Certified” program, where select dealers have undergone additional training to become certified by Trek. These dealers have access to even more specialized tools and knowledge to provide excellent service and repair for Trek bikes.

Even if your Trek bike is no longer covered by warranty, it’s still possible to keep it in great condition and ensure its longevity with regular maintenance and servicing.

Warranty exclusions

While Trek bicycle warranty offers a great level of coverage, there are certain exclusions to keep in mind. The warranty does not cover damages or defects that result from:

1. Improper use or maintenance

It is important to properly use and maintain your Trek bike in order to ensure its longevity. Any damages caused by negligence, including improper assembly, lack of regular maintenance, or failure to follow the manufacturer’s instructions can void the warranty.

2. Normal wear and tear

Trek bicycle warranty does not cover normal wear and tear, which includes cosmetic damage, scratches, and chipped paint, as well as components that naturally degrade over time due to regular use. This may include tires, brake pads, chains, and cables.

It is important to note that warranty coverage does not include routine service, such as adjustments, truing of wheels, brake adjustments, or any other maintenance that is considered normal wear and tear.

3. Non-Trek parts

If you have made any modifications or installed non-Trek parts on your bike, it can void the warranty. Trek bicycles are designed to work optimally with Trek parts, and any replacement or repair done with non-Trek parts can compromise the performance and safety of the bike.

It is advisable to consult with a Trek authorized dealer or service center for any repairs or replacements to ensure that the warranty remains valid. They will have access to genuine Trek parts and the expertise to service your bike properly.

Understanding the warranty exclusions is important to make the most out of your Trek bicycle warranty. By taking proper care of your bike and using genuine Trek parts for any replacements or repairs, you can maximize the lifespan and performance of your bike while enjoying the benefits of the warranty coverage.

3. Authorized Dealer Servicing

Trek recommends having your bicycle serviced by an authorized Trek dealer. Regular service from authorized dealers ensures that any maintenance or repairs are performed by trained professionals who are familiar with the Trek bicycles. Using unauthorized service providers may result in a voided warranty, so it is best to rely on experienced and authorized Trek dealers.

4. Use Genuine Trek Parts

If any parts of your Trek bicycle require replacement, it is crucial to use genuine Trek parts. Using aftermarket or non-Trek parts may not only affect the performance of your bike but also void the warranty coverage.

Carbon Care

Accidents happen. we're here to help..

We want you riding your bike safely, so we make it easy to replace a damaged carbon frame or part through Carbon Care, a program exclusive to Trek owners. Through Carbon Care, Trek offers a significant discount to replace a damaged carbon fiber frame, fork, or part.

What is carbon fiber?

Carbon fiber is a lightweight, strong material, making it the material of choice for the manufacture of high-performance bicycle frames, forks, and other parts. Trek has been making carbon fiber parts since the early 1990s with our OCLV (Optimum Compaction Low Void) process. Carbon fiber is also used by many other industries, including automotive and aerospace.?

Carbon fiber is not indestructible

But like anything, carbon fiber is not indestructible, and not all damage to carbon fiber will be visible. Compare a carbon fiber part to a metal part. When you damage a metal part, it will bend or deform. When you damage a carbon fiber part, it could break or it could conceal damage from the naked eye. In other words, just because a carbon part looks normal after an impact or accident does not mean that it is safe to ride.

How can carbon be damaged?

While it is impossible to list all of the scenarios that can cause damage to a carbon fiber part, below are a few examples. If you experience any of the following, stop riding your bike immediately and take it to an authorized Trek retailer to replace the damaged part: • You hit something in the road while riding - a curb, guardrail, pothole, parked car, or anything that causes the bike to stop abruptly. • An object becomes stuck in the front wheel, causing the bike to stop abruptly. • You get hit by a car or truck. • You have crashed your bike and it does not feel or sound “right.” • Your bike is in a roof rack when you drive your car into a garage. Of course, your specific scenario may be different. Remember, any carbon bike part has the potential to be damaged by a crash or impact. There are tests that can help determine if a carbon part has been damaged, but here is the bottom line: if your carbon frame, fork or part has been potentially damaged and you have any doubt about its integrity, you should replace it.

What to do if your bike may be damaged

If you suspect your carbon frame, fork, or part has been damaged in any way, follow these simple steps: 1. Stop riding the bicycle. 2. Take the bicycle to an authorized Trek retailer. Don’t know who your closest retailer is?  Click here  to find out. 3. Replace the damaged frame or part through Trek Carbon Care. Ride Safely. For more information, see your retailer or read your Owner’s Manual.
