Emissions Warranties - U.S. and Canada
02
Parts
Use of replacement parts which are not
equivalent to Volvo quality may impair the ef-
fectiveness of emission control systems. If
other than genuine Volvo parts or genuine
Volvo remanufactured parts are used for
maintenance, repair, or replacement of com-
ponents affecting emission control, the owner
must obtain assurances that such parts are
warranted by their manufacturer to be equiva-
lent to genuine Volvo parts in performance
and durability. Volvo assumes no liability un-
der this warranty for parts other than genuine
Volvo parts or genuine Volvo remanufactured
parts. However, the use of non-Volvo re-
placement parts does not invalidate the war-
ranty on other components unless the non-
Volvo parts cause damage to warranted parts
or systems.
Retailer Service
Repairs and service covered by this warranty
will be performed by an authorized Volvo re-
tailer at his place of business with no charge
for parts or labor (including diagnosis), using
genuine Volvo parts or genuine Volvo reman-
ufactured parts for any part of the emission
control system covered by this warranty and
found defective.
If an emergency occurs and no authorized
Volvo retailer is available, repairs may be per-
formed at any available service establish-
ment. Volvo will reimburse the owner for such
repairs (including labor, in most cases) that
are covered under this warranty. Replaced
parts and paid invoices must be presented at
a Volvo retail facility as a condition of reim-
bursement for emergency repairs not per-
formed by a Volvo retailer.
We encourage you to have all recommended
maintenance and repairs on your new 2011
Volvo vehicle completed. Volvo will not deny
a warranty claim solely because you have no
record of maintenance; however, Volvo may
deny a warranty claim if your failure to per-
form maintenance resulted in the failure of a
warranted part.
Receipts covering the performance of regular
maintenance must be retained for reference
and confirmation purposes.
What Is Not Warranted
1. Required maintenance services as speci-
fied in the Owner's Manual and pages 14-
16 of this booklet. Items that affect emis-
sions and require scheduled replacement
are warranted up to their first replacement
point, [such as spark plugs, filters, belts,
etc.]. Once these parts have been re-
placed at the scheduled replacement
point, they are no longer covered by this
Emissions Warranty. The replaced parts
are covered by the one year spare parts
warranty.
2. Malfunctions in any part caused by any
of the following: misuse, improper ad-
justments, modification, alteration, tam-
pering, disconnection of system parts,
and improper, inadequate or non-main-
tenance.
3. Damage resulting from accidents, acts
of nature, and events beyond the control
of Volvo.
4. The use of fuel and/or oil or other fluids
which do not meet the Volvo-approved
standards as set forth on pages 10-12 of
this booklet, the Owner's Manual, or
Volvo Service Literature.
5. Repairs on vehicles for which the true
odometer mileage cannot be readily de-
termined.
6. The cost incurred from the use of parts
other than genuine Volvo replacement
