Coverage of repairs under this warranty applies only when repairs are completed at an authorized
dealer or repair facility. The Distributor will not cover repairs performed outside of an authorized
dealer or repair facility, except in an emergency situation. The use of replacement parts not
equivalent to the original parts may impair the effectiveness of your vehicle’s emission control
system. If such a replacement part is used and an authorized dealer determines it is defective or
causes a failure of a warranted part, your claim for repair to bring your vehicle into compliance
with applicable standards may be denied.
If an emergency situation exists when a warranted part or a dealer is not reasonably
available to the owner, repairs may be performed at any available service establishment, or by the
owner, using any replacement part. The Distributor shall reimburse the owner for the expenses,
including diagnostic charges, not to exceed the Distributor’s suggested retail price for all war-
ranted parts replaced and labor charges based on the Distributor’s
recommend time allowance for the warranty repair and the geographically appropriate hourly
labor rate. The owner may reasonably be required to keep receipts and failed parts in order to
receive compensation.
This Emission Control System Warranty is in addition to the standard Limited Warranty.
