(PZEV)* Your Warranty Rights and
Obligations
The California Air Resources Board and BMW of
North America, LLC (BMW NA) are pleased to
explain the emission control system warranty on
your 2011 vehicle. In California, new motor
vehicles must be designed, built and equipped to
meet the State’s stringent anti-smog standards.
BMW NA must warrant the emission control
system on your vehicle for the periods of time
listed below provided there has been no abuse,
neglect or improper maintenance of your vehicle.
Your emission control system may include parts
such as the fuel injection system, the ignition
system, catalytic converter, and engine
computer. Also included may be hoses, belts,
connectors and other emission-related
assemblies.
Where a warrantable condition exists, BMW NA
will repair your vehicle at no cost to you including
diagnosis, parts and labor.
Manufacturer’s Warranty Coverage:
– For 15 years or 150,000 miles, whichever
occurs first:
1. If your vehicle fails a Smog Check inspection,
all necessary repairs and adjustments will be
made by BMW NA to ensure that your vehicle
passes the inspection. This is your emission
control system PERFORMANCE
WARRANTY.
2. If any emission-related part on your vehicle is
defective, the part will be repaired or replaced
by BMW NA. This is your emission control
system DEFECTS WARRANTY.
Owner’s Warranty Responsibilities:
– As the vehicle owner, you are responsible for
the performance of the required maintenance
listed in your Owner’s Manual. BMW NA
recommends that you retain all receipts
covering maintenance on your vehicle, but
BMW NA cannot deny warranty solely for the
lack of receipts or for your failure to ensure the
performance of all scheduled maintenance.
– You are responsible for presenting your vehicle
to an authorized BMW center as soon as a
problem exists. The warranty repairs should be
completed in a reasonable amount of time, not
to exceed 30 days.

that BMW NA may deny your warranty
coverage if your vehicle or part has failed due to
abuse, neglect, improper maintenance or
unapproved modifications.
