Your vehicle is a mechanical device. All mechanical devices
make some sort of noise and/or vibration, and those noises and
vibrations can differ from vehicle to vehicle. PCL recognizes
these noises as normal and characteristic of the product. Normal
noises or vibrations as determined by PCL can be anything from
brake squeal to road vibration. Therefore, normal noise and/or
vibration and/or deterioration, is not covered by our warranty.
Note on Warranty Service
If you cannot get warranty service, or you are dissatisfied with the service
or with a warranty decision, refer to the Customer Satisfaction section in
this booklet.
Your Responsibility for Using Equivalent Replacement Parts
PCL recommends only the use of parts distributed by PCL or parts that
are guaranteed by their manufacturer to be equivalent in design and quali-
ty to PCL supplied parts. The use of replacement parts not equivalent in
quality or design to parts supplied by PCL may impair the effectiveness of
your car’s emission control systems. If a replacement part is defective or
not equivalent to the original part, your claim for repair under this warranty
may be denied. If, however, the part is not related to the reason for the
failure, your claim will not be denied.
Your Responsibility for Maintenance
You must maintain your Porsche according to the
Maintenance Schedule
included in this Booklet
and the Car Care Instructions in the
Owner’s
Manual,
and you must keep the receipts as proof of maintenance.
