BMW 2010 ActiveHybrid X6, Service And Warranty Information

Page: 37 / 45

It is strongly recommended that any replacement
parts used for maintenance, repair or replacement
of emission control systems be genuine BMW
Service Parts or BMW Authorized Remanufactured
Parts. Without invalidating this warranty, the owner
may elect to have maintenance, repair or
replacement of the emission control systems
performed by any automotive repair establishment,
or elect to use parts other than BMW Authorized
Remanufactured or genuine BMW Service Parts.
However, the cost of such service or parts will not
be covered under this warranty, except in
emergency situations. In an emergency situation,
where an authorized BMW SAV center is not
reasonably available or a warranty replacement part
is not available within 30 days, repairs may be
performed at any available service establishment
or by any individual using any replacement part.
A repair not completed within 30 days
constitutes an emergency. BMW NA will
reimburse the owner for such emergency repairs
(including labor, parts and diagnosis not to
exceed BMW suggested retail price for all
warranted parts replaced and labor charges
based on the manufacturer’s recommended time
allowance for the warranty repair and the
geographically appropriate hourly labor rate) that
are covered under this warranty. Replaced parts
and paid invoices must be presented to an
authorized BMW SAV center as a condition of
reimbursement for emergency repairs not
performed by an authorized BMW SAV center.
The use of replacement parts, which are not of
equivalent quality, may impair the effectiveness
of emission control systems. If other than
genuine BMW Service Parts or Authorized
Remanufactured Parts are used for maintenance,
repair or replacement of components affecting
emission control, the owner should obtain
assurances that such parts are warranted by their
manufacturer to be equivalent to genuine BMW
parts in performance and durability. BMW NA
assumes no liability under this warranty with
respect to parts other than genuine BMW parts.
However, the use of non-genuine BMW
replacement parts does not invalidate the
warranty on other components, unless
non-genuine BMW parts cause damage to
warranted parts.
What is not covered
This warranty does not cover malfunctions
caused by any of the following: accident, flood,
misuse, modification, alteration, tampering,
disconnection, improper or inadequate
maintenance, except if performed by an
authorized BMW SAV center doing warranty
repair work, use of leaded fuel or fuel other than
as specified in the Owner’s Manual.
The replacement of maintenance parts, such as
spark plugs, filters and similar items used in
required maintenance services or the repair or
replacement of maintenance parts beyond the
first replacement interval.
Any SAV on which the odometer has been
replaced or altered and the true mileage cannot
be determined.
The SAV, if the Vehicle Identification Number
(VIN) is altered or cannot be determined, or if the
SAV has been declared a total loss or sold for
salvage purposes.

you may also have other rights which vary from
state to state.
