CALIFORNIA EMISSION CONTROL WARRANTY

33

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 con-
trol 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 main-
tenance 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 desig-

nated 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.
