Essence FS series rods purchased through an authorized dealer are covered by a one-year warranty. Essence FC and Essence FW series rods purchased through an authorized dealer are covered by a lifetime warranty. This warranty only applies to the original owner and is not transferable. This warranty is limited to repair or replacement of the rod only, and does not cover direct, indirect, consequential, incidental or any other type of damage resulting from the use of the product. This warranty does not cover misuse, negligence, normal wear, fire, theft, loss or intentional damage. Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you. This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights that vary from state to state.

To qualify for warranty service, the original owner must return the rod, including broken parts or pieces to the Ross Worldwide address listed below. A copy of the original purchase receipt and a Product Service Form must be included with the shipment, or the warranty return will be refused and sent back to the customer. The Product Service Form can be accessed from the link below and must be filled out in its entirety. All shipments to Ross Worldwide must be freight paid. A fee of $30 will be charged for each warranty return to cover the cost of processing, handling and shipment back to the customer.

Ross Worldwide reserves the right to determine whether to repair or replace any product covered by this warranty. Discontinued products may be replaced with newer models when necessary.

If your Ross Worldwide rod should need attention, please return it to:

Ross Worldwide
Att: Service
