BAJA INC. – EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM WARRANTY
YOUR WARRANTY RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS
The emission control system warranty period for this vehicle begins on the date the vehicle is delivered to the first purchaser
other than an authorized dealer, or the date it is first used as a demonstrator, lease, or company vehicle, whichever comes first
and continues for 60 months after that date, or 5,000km, whichever comes first, provided there has been no abuse, neglect or
improper maintenance of your vehicle. Where a warrantable condition exists, the Distributor will repair your vehicle at no cost
to you, including diagnosis, parts and labor. If an emission-related part on your vehicle is defective, the part will be repaired
or replaced by the Distributor. This is your emission control defects warranty.
OWNER’S WARRANTY RESPONSIBILITIES
As the vehicle owner, you are responsible for the performance of the required maintenance. You should maintain a record
of all maintenance performed on your vehicle and retain all receipts covering maintenance on your vehicle. You may not be
denied a warranty claim solely because of your failure to ensure the performance of all scheduled maintenance or lack of
maintenance records or receipts. You are responsible for presenting your vehicle to an authorized dealer as soon as a problem
exists. The warranty repairs should be completed in a reasonable amount of time, not to exceed 30 days.
As the vehicle owner, you should be aware that you may be denied your warranty coverage if your vehicle or a part has failed
due to abuse, neglect, improper maintenance, or unapproved modifications.
WARRANTY COVERAGE
The Distributor warrants that each new 2009 and later vehicle:
•
is designed, built, and equipped so as to conform at the time of initial retail purchase with all applicable regulations
of the United States Environmental Protection Agency, and the California Air Resources Board; and
•
is free from defects in material and workmanship which cause such vehicle to fail to confirm with applicable regula-
tions of the United States Environmental Protection Agency or the California Air Resources Board for the periods specified
above.
Your emission control system warranty covers components whose failure would increase an engine’s emission, including elec-
tronic controls, fuel injection system, carburetor, the ignition system, catalytic converter, or any other system utilized in this
vehicle to control emission if it is originally equipped. Also included may be hoses, connectors and other emission-related
assemblies. Replacing or repairing other components (including parts, labor, and other costs) not covered by this emission
control system warranty or the standard warranty is the responsibility of the owner.
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. 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.
This Emission Control System Warranty is in addition to the standard Limited Warranty.
