This warranty does not apply to parts that are not in original condition because of normal wear and tear or parts that 

fail or become damaged as a result of misuse, accidents, lack of proper maintenance or defects caused by improper 

installation. Travel, diagnostic cost, labor, transportation and any and all such other costs related to repairing a
