3-Year Transferable Limited Warranty - Crusader Challenger 5.7L Catanium CES Operation And Maintenance Manual

INTRODUCTION - 1
3 YEAR TRANSFERABLE LIMITED WARRANTY
Pleasurecraft Marine Engine Co., through its Crusader Challenger Engines Division ("Challenger"), warrants its new products to be free from defects in material and workmanship
under normal use and service conditions, to the first registered owner or registered user, as well as all subsequent users who, in accordance with Challenger's warranty transfer
policy, have received within 30 days of a sale transaction involving the product a transfer of any remaining period of coverage under this warranty. The obligation of Challenger
under this warranty shall be limited to the repair or replacement with new or reconditioned components, at Challenger's option, of any product, or parts thereof, which have failed
during the warranty period specified below and are demonstrated upon examination to have failed due to defective material and/or workmanship.
WARRANTY COVERAGE; TERM
This warranty is extended only to the first registered owner or registered user, as well as all subsequent users who, in accordance with Challenger's warranty transfer policy, have
received within 30 days of a sale transaction involving the product a transfer of any remaining period of coverage under this warranty, as specified below.
All components, other than those itemized below and those components that are warranted by Challenger's suppliers, are warranted, solely for non-commercial use, for a period
of 3 years or 300 hours of use, whichever first occurs, from the earlier of (1) the date of sale to the first registered owner or registered user, or (2) from the date the engine is first
placed into service for demonstration or any other purpose prior to the sale of the engine to the first owner purchasing the engine at retail, as well as to all subsequent users who,
in accordance with Challenger's warranty transfer policy, have received a transfer of any remaining portion of this warranty coverage within 30 days of any subsequent sale of the
product. In the case of commercial use of the product, the term of this warranty shall be the shorter of (a) a period of 6 months from the date of sale to the first registered owner or
registered user, or (b) the expiration of 200 hours of use.
Components not covered under this warranty:
(1) Water pump impellers are not covered by this warranty.
(2) Seals, gaskets, o-rings, and other materials affected by time are not covered by this warranty if their effectiveness is reduced by an extended storage period prior to sale or use
of the product.
(3) Items such as, but not limited to, lubricants, spark plugs and other items which are normally frequently replaced as part of routine maintenance.
NO OTHER WARRANTY GIVEN
The obligations set forth in the preceding paragraphs are Challenger's sole obligation and the owner's exclusive remedy. Challenger makes no other express warranty. Any
implied warranty of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose that may be applicable to this product is limited in duration to the duration of this warranty. Some States do
not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, so the above limitation may not apply to you.
No distributor, dealer, agent or employee of Challenger is authorized to grant any other or further warranty or incur any additional warranty obligation on Challenger's behalf in
connection with the sale of its products. Any qualification or restriction contained herein which is prohibited by any law of mandatory application shall be deemed to be deleted from
this warranty; however, such deletion shall have no effect on the remaining provisions hereof, all of which shall remain in full force and effect.
REMEDIES
The obligation of Challenger set forth in the first paragraph of this warranty shall be the exclusive remedy for any breach of warranty hereunder, and any owner or user's sole
remedy in the event of breach of the warranties is repair or replacement of the product or any warranted part thereof as set forth in this warranty: with this sole exception,
Challenger shall not be liable for any direct or indirect, incidental or consequential damages, including without limitation, any damages for property damage, loss of use or loss of
profits, loss of income, inconvenience, trailering, towing, haul out, launch and/or any other in and out of water expenses, storage charges, dockage charges, expenses to deliver
or pick up the product being warranted to and from the dealer, telephone expenses, lodging expenses, travel expenses, mechanic travel time and mileage, damage caused by
any occurrence of an insurable nature, rental of substitute equipment of any type, removal and replacement and/or modification of any boat parts to facilitate repairs, moving of
furniture, carpets, cleaning, painting, carpenter work, or re-delivery charges. Some States do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the
above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you.
Any owner or user hereby waives for himself/herself/itself and his/her/its successor and assigns (a) any and all claims for punitive damages, and (b) all claims of negligence or strict
liability or both. In no event will Challenger's liability exceed the purchase price of the product(s) which is actually paid to Challenger.
OBTAINING PERFORMANCE UNDER WARRANTY
Challenger's warranty registration form should be prepared by your selling dealer, executed by you and the dealer, and mailed by you to Challenger within 30 days after the date
of your purchase of the product. Upon receipt of the warranty registration form, Challenger will issue to you a personalized owner's registration card which will be mailed directly to
you. If the owner's registration card is not received within 8 weeks after the date of purchase, please write to Challenger at the address set forth below.
At the time that a claim for warranty service is made, the owner's registration card should be presented to the person or entity providing warranty service. Authorized Challenger
dealers or distributors are entitled to be reimbursed by Challenger for some or all of the expense of warranty repairs; thus, service under the terms of this warranty will be
performed by an authorized Challenger dealer or distributor without charge for established flat rate labor or replacement parts, other than items not covered by the warranty, such
as, but not limited to, water pump impellers, seals, gaskets, o-rings and other materials affected by time if their effectiveness is reduced by an extended storage period prior to sale
or use of the product, and lubricants, spark plugs and other items which are normally frequently replaced as part of routine maintenance. Charges for additional non-warranty work
and/or additional dealer charges for labor relative to warranty work in excess of flat rate must be paid for by the owner.
Prior authorization in writing must be obtained from Challenger for any warranty repairs over $50.00 and in all cases where the owner fails to establish the purchase and warranty
expiration dates with the owner's registration card sent upon receipt of the warranty registration form by Challenger. While failure to present the owner's registration card will
not prevent you from obtaining coverage hereunder, this warranty shall not be effective and, therefore, cannot be honored until the product purchase date can be confirmed by
Challenger. If the card is lost, communicate with Challenger at the address listed below, and, for a processing fee of $10.00, a new owner's registration card will be issued to you.
Any questions concerning service, parts or this warranty should be directed to your selling dealer. If your dealer is unable to assist or if you relocate or are travelling or need a
referral to your nearest dealer contact: Pleasurecraft Marine Engine Co., P.O. Drawer 369, Little Mountain, SC 29075 ((803) 345-0050).
FAILURES EXCLUDED FROM WARRANTY
This warranty will not apply to any failure which results from accidents, sinking, fire, neglect, abuse or abnormal service or use, such as racing, towing or operation in water of
insufficient depth, or to any failure resulting from improper installation, improper adjustments, repairs or improper delivery service, or to any failure resulting from the use of parts,
fuels, oils or lubricants not suitable for use with the product and/or materials or parts not approved by Challenger. This warranty does not apply to any engine or drive which has
been modified, or altered, or repaired in such a manner as, in the opinion of Challenger, to affect its stability, reliability or performance. Further, this warranty will not apply to
product failure resulting from (1) use of non-recommended lubricants or fuels, (2) failure to follow maintenance or lubrication schedules, (3) failure caused or contributed to by
improper or contaminated fuel, (4) failure caused by water intrusion, salt corrosion to external components, or improper installation or misapplication of the engine or drive, (5)
the owner's or operator's failure to exercise due or normal care and precaution, (6) failure of components and/or assemblies that are warranted by Challenger suppliers, and (7)
damage resulting from the owner's or operator's failure to timely replace failed water pump impellers, seals, gaskets and o-rings.
OWNER'S RESPONSIBILITY

(1) Owner or user shall verify that the pre-delivery service has been performed, all requested information recorded and that the selling dealer has signed the warranty registration.
