The guarantee is not given by the hospital or the doctor, but by the brand that manufactures the implants. Ams and coloplast both give 5 years.
Was told the Coloplast is lifetime guarantee on the unit. However, also told Coloplast often tries to get out of it.
not really. Coloplast is guaranteed 5 years, and the guarantee certificate states 5 years, I don't think it changes depending on the country. On my certificate there are the serial numbers of all the parts of the implant, and there is a lifetime warranty, also as far as I'm concerned, legally, I relied on that particular very large and well-known private hospital in Istanbul, they fit this particular brand because it is guaranteed for life, so they are also responsible for it as far as I'm concerned.
I personally do not know. However, read this:
Lifetime replacement policy
"Coloplast provides a lifetime replacement policy with all of its penile implants. Coloplast will replace the inflatable implant, or any component, for any reason during the lifetime of the patient."

Also, Perito has the following on his website, and he only uses Coloplast:
"Historically, the failure rate is between 2% and 5% every five years. Each penile implant device is covered with a lifetime warranty. Full sexual function is restored. The implant does not interfere with urination or ejaculation."
