The California Air Resources Board is pleased to explain the emission
control system warranty on your 2014‑2015 model year sterndrive
engine. In California, new sterndrive engines must be designed, built
and equipped to meet the State's stringent antismog standards.
Mercury Racing must warrant the emission control system on your
sterndrive engine for the periods of time listed below, provided there
has been no abuse, neglect, or improper maintenance of your
sterndrive engine.
Your emission control system may include parts such as the
carburetor or fuel injection system, the ignition system, and catalytic
converter. Also included may be hoses, belts, connectors, and other
emission‑related assemblies. Where a warrantable condition exists,
Mercury Marine will repair your sterndrive engine at no cost to you,
including diagnosis, parts and labor.
