INTRODUCTION - 1
Pleasurecraft Marine Engine Co., through its PCM Engines Division ("PCM"), warrants its new products to be free from defects in material and workmanship under normal use and service
conditions. This warranty is extended only to the first registered owner or registered user, as well as all subsequent users who comply with PCM's warranty transfer policy and receive PCM's
approval of warranty transfer. The obligation of PCM under this warranty shall be limited to the repair or replacement with new or reconditioned components, at PCM's option, of any product,
or parts thereof, which have failed during the warranty coverage period specified below and are demonstrated upon examination to have failed due to defective material and/or workmanship.
WARRANTY COVERAGE; TRANSFER; WARRANTY PERIOD
This warranty is extended to the first registered owner or registered user purchasing the engine at retail, as well as all subsequent users who, in accordance with PCM's warranty transfer
policy and warranty transfer approval, must notify PCM within 30 days of any subsequent sale of the product at which time PCM will review for an approval of the transfer of any remaining
portion of warranty coverage. To obtain a PCM Warranty Transfer Application, contact your local Pleasurecraft dealer or PCM's Warranty Services Department at (803) 345-0050.
Certification of an inspection of the product by an authorized technician and payment of a warranty transfer fee are required to be submitted with the Application.
All components, other than those itemized below and those components that are warranted by PCM's suppliers, are warranted, solely for non-commercial use, for a period of 5 years or
1,000 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. Commercial use is defined as, but not limited to, use of the product by ski
schools, for promotional use, for athletes' boats, for rentals, etc. In the case of commercial use of the product, the term of this warranty shall be for a period of 5 years or 1,000 hours of use,
whichever occurs first, from the earlier of (1) the date in which the engine is first registered, or (2) within 30 days from the date the boat was manufactured.
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 frequently replaced as part of routine maintenance.
NO OTHER WARRANTY GIVEN
The obligations set forth in the preceding paragraphs are PCM's sole obligation and the owner's exclusive remedy. PCM 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 PCM is authorized to grant any other or further warranty or incur any additional warranty obligation on PCM'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 PCM 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 warranty is repair or replacement of the product or any warranted part thereof as set forth in this warranty. With this sole exception, PCM 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 PCM's liability exceed the purchase price of the product(s) which is actually paid to PCM.
OBTAINING PERFORMANCE UNDER WARRANTY
PCM's warranty registration form should be prepared by your selling dealer, executed by you and the dealer, and mailed by you to PCM within 30 days after the date of your purchase of the
product. Upon receipt of the warranty registration form, PCM 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 PCM 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 PCM dealers or
distributors are entitled to be reimbursed by PCM for some or all of the expense of warranty repairs; thus, service under the terms of this warranty will be performed by an authorized PCM
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 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 PCM 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 PCM. 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 PCM. If the card is lost, communicate with
PCM 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, if you are travelling or if you 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 PCM. 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 PCM, 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 PCM 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.
