older Diawa Heartland rod warranty?

[GBW]

hey all.

the guide on the rod closest to the reel broke so I was wondering if anyone had an idea of what the older rods warranty was. I don't have the model number with me now but I will when I get home this evening. It was a nice and light rod that my daughter really liked. No clue how the ring actually rotted in one spot as she never kept her hook on the ring. I told her not to as she could knick the ring and cut the line so she listened and never did it again. Thanks all

Thanks and this rod is WAY more than one year old. Wasn't sure if they had good warranty like Shimano once did (lifetime)

I have a few of the old Diawa Heartland rods, they worked well for me.

Heartlands have one year warranty,

I don't know where you live but any rod/reel repair shop can replace the guides,

Aikman's in Mississauga is an authorized Daiwa service centre, They will have the right parts.

Thanks but for my 13 year old daughter I got her a new rod and she's happy with it (shimano). I had hope for warranty is all but thanks all
