CALIFORNIA EMISSION CONTROL WARRANTY

(A) If the Mazda Dealer determines that an emission-related part listed in this warranty 

booklet specially noted with coverage for 7 years or 70,000 miles is defective, 
then Mazda shall be liable for the expenses of detecting and correcting the part 
failure or malfunction, unless the Mazda Dealer demonstrates one or more 
conditions as provided under Section 9, the “What Is Not Covered” section of this 
warranty. This section applies to situations after a period of use of 3 years or 
50,000 miles, but before a period of use of 7 years or 70,000 miles.

In the alternative, the Owner of a Mazda Vehicle whose emission-related part 
listed in this warranty booklet specially noted with coverage for 7 years or 70,000 
miles is defective may choose to have the Mazda Vehicle repaired at another 
repair facility other than a Mazda Dealer. If a warrantable defect is found, the 
Owner may deliver the Mazda Vehicle to a Mazda Dealer and have the defect 
corrected free of charge. Mazda shall not be liable for any expense incurred at a 
service establishment not authorized to perform warranty repairs, except when an 
“emergency” situation exists as specified in Section 6 (b), in this warranty.

Mazda will not reimburse the Owner for any emission-related diagnosis or repair by 
an automotive service establishment or individual other than a Mazda Dealer 
except when an “emergency” situation exists.

If Mazda or the Mazda Dealer fails to notify the Owner within 30 days that the 
repair, replacement, or diagnosis is not covered by this performance warranty, 
unless so requested by the Owner, or due to events beyond the control of Mazda 
or the Mazda Dealer, Mazda shall be responsible for repairing the Mazda Vehicle 
free of charge to the Owner.

Maintenance records and receipts should be retained in the event questions arise 
concerning maintenance, and should be transferred to each subsequent owner.

(B) If the Mazda Dealer demonstrates one or more conditions as provided under 

Section 9, the “What Is Not Covered” section of this Warranty, the Owner shall be 
liable for all diagnostic and repair expenses.

(C) If the Mazda Dealer determines an emission-related part listed in this warranty 

booklet specially noted with coverage for 7 years or 70,000 miles is defective and 
in combination with one or more conditions as provided under Section 9, the 
“What Is Not Covered” section of this warranty, then Mazda shall be liable for the 
diagnostic and repair costs related to detecting and repairing the warrantable 
defects.
