5. Notwithstanding the provisions of Subsection (4) above, warranty services or
repairs must be provided at distribution centers that are franchised to service the
subject engine/equipment.
6. The owner must not be charged for diagnostic labor that leads to the determination
that a warranted part is in fact defective, provided that such diagnostic work is
performed at a warranty station.
7. Rato is liable for damages to other engine/equipment components proximately
caused by a failure under warranty of any warranted part.
8. Throughout the emissions control system’s warranty period set out in subsection
(b)(2), Rato must maintain a supply of warranted parts sufficient to meet the
expected demand for such parts and must obtain additional parts if that supply is
exhausted.
9. Manufacturer-approved replacement parts that do not increase the exhaust or
evaporative emissions of the engine or emissions control system must be used
in the performance of any warranty maintenance or repairs and must be provided
without charge to the owner. Such use will not reduce the warranty obligations of
Rato.

grounds for disallowing a warranty claim. Rato will not be liable to warrant failures
of warranted parts caused by the use of a non-exempted add-on or modified part.
