CALIFORNIA EMISSION CONTROL WARRANTY

2021_C708UN20K_Edition1

However, Owners should note the following:

(a) The cost of such service by dealers other than Mazda will not be covered under 

this warranty except in an “emergency” as set forth below.

(b) An “emergency” exists when Warranted Parts are not available within 30 days 

from a Mazda Dealer, when a repair is not completed within 30 days, or when a 
Mazda Dealer is not reasonably available to perform service under this warranty.

(c) The cost of such service by dealers other than Mazda in an “emergency” shall be 

reimbursed to the Owner as follows: as to all Warranted Parts which require repair 
or replacement under this warranty, the Owner shall be reimbursed for all such 
replacement parts in an amount not to exceed the retail price suggested for such 
parts by Mazda North American Operations. As to labor, including diagnostic 
charge related to the emergency repair, the Owner shall be reimbursed in an 
amount not to exceed Mazda’s recommended time allowance and geographically 
appropriate hourly labor rate for the repair or replacement performed under this 
warranty. 

All failed parts and paid invoices must be presented to a Mazda 

Dealer after repair as a condition of reimbursement for emergency repairs not 
performed by a Mazda Dealer.

7. Use of Mazda Parts

The emission control system of the Mazda Vehicle is designed, built and tested using 
Mazda Parts so that the Mazda Vehicle is certified as being in conformity with the 
California emission control regulations. 

Accordingly, it is recommended that any 

replacement part used for maintenance, repair, or replacement of emission control 
systems be Mazda designated parts.

8. Use of Non-Mazda Parts

Owners may elect to use parts other than Mazda Parts in the performance of any 
maintenance or repairs and such use in and of itself will not invalidate this warranty.

However, Owners should note the following:

(a) The cost of non-Mazda designated parts will not be covered under this warranty 

except in emergency cases.

(b) Use of replacement parts which are not of equivalent quality to Mazda Parts may 

impair the effectiveness of emission control systems.
If non-Mazda designated parts are used, the Owner should obtain assurance that 
such parts are warranted by their manufacturer to be equivalent to Mazda Parts in 
performance and durability.

(c) Mazda assumes no liability under this warranty with respect to non-Mazda designated 

parts except for damage to non-Mazda designated parts by a Mazda Part.

(d) Use of non-Mazda designated parts resulting in damage to Warranted Parts will 

invalidate the warranty for these parts.
