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 RATO according to Subsection (4) below. Any such part repaired or
replaced under warranty must be warranted for 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
must be performed at no charge to the owner at a warranty station.
(5) Notwithstanding the provisions of Subsection (4) above, warranty services
or repairs must be provided at distribution centers that are franchised to
service the subject engine/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) RATO is liable for damages to other engine/equipment components
proximately caused by a failure under warranty of any warranted part.
(8) Throughout the emissions control system's warranty period set out in
subsection (b)(2), RATO must maintain a supply of warranted parts sufficient
to meet the expected demand for such parts and must obtain additional parts
if that supply is exhausted.
(9) Manufacturer-approved replacement parts that do not increase the
exhaust or evaporative emissions of the engine or emissions control system
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 RATO.
(10) Add-on or modified parts that are not exempted by the Air Resources
Board may not be used. The use of any non-exempted add-on or modified
parts will be grounds for disallowing a warranty claim. RATO will not be liable

add-on or modified part.
