Federal Emissions System Defect Warranty (Valid Only In The U.s.a. And Puerto Rico) - BMW X3 3.0si 2010 Service And Warranty Information

Some states do not allow limitations on how long
an implied warranty lasts, or the exclusion or
limitation of incidental or consequential
damages, so the above limitations and
exclusions may not apply to you.
This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and
you may also have other rights which vary from
state to state. Any legal claim or action arising
from any express or implied warranty contained
herein must be brought within 12 months of the
date it arises.
This warranty does not apply to damage
caused by negligence, improper accident
damage repairs, or improper use.
BMW NA will not accept any liability for any
parts and accessories not approved by BMW.
This warranty shall be null and void if the SAV
identification number has been altered or
cannot be read, if the odometer has been
replaced or altered and the true mileage
cannot be determined, if the SAV has been
declared a total loss or sold for salvage
purposes, or if the SAV has been used in any
competitive event.
Federal Emissions System Defect
Warranty (Valid only in the U.S.A.
and Puerto Rico)
This warranty applies only to U.S. specification
SAVs distributed by BMW of North America, LLC
(BMW NA) or sold through the BMW NA
European Delivery Program.
In accordance with the defect warranty
provisions of section 207(b) of the Clean Air Act,
BMW NA warrants to the first retail purchaser,
and each subsequent purchaser, that the SAV (a)
was designed, built and equipped so as to
conform, at the time of sale, with all regulations
of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
applicable at the time of manufacture and (b) is
free from defects in materials and workmanship
which would cause it to fail to conform with
applicable regulations for a period of 2 years or
24,000 miles, whichever occurs first, except for
specific emission control components (as listed
on page 27), for which the warranty period is
8 years or 80,000 miles, whichever occurs first.
Coverage begins on the date of first retail sale or
the date the vehicle is first placed into service as
a sales demonstrator, Aftersales Mobility
Program (AMP) Vehicle or company vehicle,
whichever is earlier.
Warranty claims must be made as soon as
reasonably possible after a defect is discovered.
To make a claim, the SAV must be brought to any
authorized BMW SAV center during normal
business hours.
The authorized BMW SAV center will, without
charge for parts or labor (including diagnosis),
either repair or replace the defective part, if any.
The decision whether to repair or replace said
parts is solely the prerogative of BMW NA and
must be expected to correct the failure of the
warranted part. Parts for which replacements are
made become the property of BMW NA. In all
cases, a reasonable time must be allowed for
warranty repairs to be completed after the SAV is
received by the authorized BMW SAV center.
For assistance in determining which specific
parts or components of your vehicle are covered
under this warranty, please contact your
authorized BMW SAV center.
It is the owner's responsibility to have all
scheduled inspection and maintenance services
performed (at the owner's expense), as
prescribed in the maintenance schedule for the
BMW Emission Control System. Service intervals
are computed by the onboard BMW service
interval indicator and displayed on the instrument
panel. The instructions for proper maintenance
and use can be found in the X3 Owner's Manual.
It is strongly recommended that any replacement
parts used for maintenance, repair or
replacement of emission control systems be
certified BMW Service Parts or BMW Authorized
Remanufactured Parts. Without invalidating this
warranty, the owner may elect to have
maintenance, repair or replacement of the
emission control systems performed by any
automotive repair establishment, or elect to use
parts other than certified BMW Service Parts.
However, the cost of such service or parts will not
be covered under this warranty, except in
emergency situations. In an emergency situation,
where an authorized BMW SAV center or a
warranty replacement part is not reasonably
available (within 30 days), repairs may be
24
