Defects Warranty Requirements
(a) The warranty period begins on the date the engine or equipment
is delivered to an ultimate purchaser.
(b) General Evaporative Emissions Warranty Coverage.
The fuel tank must be warranted to the ultimate purchaser and any subsequent
owner that the evaporative
emission control system when installed was:
(1) Designed, built, and equipped so as to conform with all applicable regulations; and
(2) Free from defects in materials and workmanship
that causes the failure of a warranted part for a period of two years.
(c)
The warranty on evaporative
emissions-related
parts will be interpreted
as follows:
(1) Any warranted part that is not scheduled for replacement as required maintenance in the written instructions must be warranted for
the warranty period defined in subsection (b)(2). If any such part fails during the period of warranty coverage, it must be repaired or
replaced by Sears. Any such part repaired or replaced under the warranty must be warranted for a time not less than the remaining
warranty period.
(2) Any warranted
part that is scheduled
only for regular inspection in the written instructions
must be warranted for the warranty
period defined in subsection
(b)(2). A statement in such written instructions
to the effect of "repair or replace as necessary" will not
reduce the period of warranty coverage. Any such part repaired or replaced under warranty must be warranted for a time not less
than the remaining warranty period.
(3) Any warranted part that is scheduled for replacement as required maintenance in the written instructions must be warranted for the
period of time prior to the first scheduled replacement point for that part. If the part fails prior to the first scheduled replacement, the
part must be repaired or replaced by the Sears. Any such part repaired or replaced under warranty must be warranted for a time not
less than the remainder of the period prior to the first scheduled replacement point for the part.
(4) Repair or replacement
of any warranted
part under the warranty provisions of this article must be performed
at no charge to the
owner at a warranty station.
(5) Not withstanding
the provisions of subsection
(4) above, warranty services or repairs must be provided at distribution centers that
are franchised to service the subject engines or equipment.
(6) The owner must not be charged for diagnostic labor that leads to the determination
that a warranted part is in fact defective,
provided that such diagnostic
work is performed at a warranty station.
(7) Throughout the evaporative
emission control system's warranty period set out in subsection
(b)(2), Sears must maintain a supply of
warranted
parts sufficient to meet the expected
demand for such parts.
(8) Manufacturer
approved replacement
parts must be used in the performance
of any warranty maintenance
or repairs and must be
provided without charge to the owner. Such use will not reduce the warranty obligations
of the manufacturer
issuing the warranty.
(9) The use of any add-on or modified parts will be grounds for disallowing
a warranty claim made in accordance
with this article. The
manufacturer
issuing the warranty will not be liable under this Article to warrant failures of warranted parts caused by the use of an
add-on or modified part.
(10) Sears shall provide any documents that describe the warranty procedures or policies within five working days of request by the Air
Resources Board.
