WARRANTY
WARRANTED PARTS
Coverage under this warranty extends only to the parts listed below (the
emission control system parts) to the extent these parts were present on
the engine purchased.
Since emission related parts may vary slightly from model to model,
certain models may not contain all of these parts and certain models may
contain functionally equivalent parts.
WARRANTY SERVICE AND CHARGES
Warranty service shall be provided during customary business hours at
any authorized John Deere Commercial and Consumer Equipment
Retailer located within the United States of America. Repair or
replacement of any warranted part will be performed at no charge to the
owner, including diagnostic labor which leads to the determination that a
warranted part is defective, if the diagnostic work is performed at an
authorized John Deere Commercial and Consumer Equipment Retailer.
Any parts replaced under this warranty shall become the property of John
Deere.
MAINTENANCE WARRANTY COVERAGE
a) Any warranted part which is not scheduled for replacement as required
maintenance shall be warranted as to defects for the warranty period. Any
such part repaired or replaced under the warranty shall be warranted for
the remaining warranty period.
b) Any warranted part which is scheduled only for regular inspection to the
effect of “repair or replace as necessary” shall be warranted as to defects
for the warranty period. Any such part repaired or replaced under the
warranty shall be warranted for the remaining warranty period.
c) Any warranted part which is scheduled for replacement as required
maintenance shall be warranted as to defects only for the period of time up
to the first scheduled replacement for that part. Any such part repaired or
replaced under the warranty shall be warranted for the remainder of the
period prior to the first scheduled replacement point for that part.
d) Normal maintenance, replacement or repair of emission control devices
and systems, which are being done at the customers expense, may be
performed by any repair establishment or individual; however, warranty
repairs must be performed by an authorized John Deere Commercial and
Consumer Equipment Retailer.
e) Any replacement part that is equivalent in performance and durability
may be used in the performance of any non-warranty maintenance or
repairs, and shall not reduce the warranty obligations of John Deere.
CONSEQUENTIAL WARRANTY COVERAGE
Warranty coverage shall extend to the failure of any engine components
caused by the failure of any warranted part still under warranty.
