Default Model A New Car Warranty

Was there any written warranty with a new A? What were the terms, or was it just 'yours' when it hit the street?

That info should be in the owners manual if there was a warranty. I suppose defects in parts and manufacturing would be implied.

Nothing in any of the 28-31 manuals. Implied? I asked about written.

Here is the original one from Germany:







....and the original one for the French speaking part of Switzerland (vehicles assembled in Belgium):





...and, for the linguistically challenge, here is the original one in English for England:

I find it interesting that Coachwork was not covered. I would assume that would mean Briggs and Murray. Especially if they weren't covering the Stewart Warner Speedo, electric wiper, horns and the tires.
