Your Rights and Obligations (For Vehicles Subject to California Exhaust Emission Standards)

The emission control system warranty on your vehicle is issued in accordance with the California Air Resources Board and Saturn. In California, new motor vehicles must be designed, equipped, and built to meet the states' stringent anti-smog standards. Saturn must warrant your vehicle's emission control system for the periods of time and mileage listed provided there has been no abuse, neglect, or improper maintenance of your vehicle. Your vehicle's emission control system may include parts such as the fuel injection system, ignition system, catalytic converter, and engine computer. Also included are hoses, belts, connectors, and other emission related assemblies.

Where a warrantable condition exists, Saturn will repair your vehicle at no cost to you including diagnosis, parts, and labor.

Saturn Warranty Coverage

Any authorized Saturn retailer will, as necessary under these warranties, replace, repair, or adjust to Saturn specifications any genuine Saturn parts that affect emissions.

The applicable warranty period shall begin on the date the vehicle is delivered to the first retail purchaser or, if the vehicle is first placed in service as a demonstrator or company vehicle prior to sale at retail, on the date the vehicle is placed in such service.

Owner's Warranty Responsibilities

As the vehicle owner, you are responsible for the performance of the scheduled maintenance listed in your owner manual. Saturn recommends that you retain all maintenance receipts for your vehicle, but Saturn cannot deny warranty coverage solely for the lack of receipts or for your failure to ensure the performance of all scheduled maintenance.

You are responsible for presenting your vehicle to a Saturn retailer or an Authorized Saturn Service Provider as soon as a problem exists. The warranted repairs should be completed in a reasonable amount of time, not to exceed 30 days.

As the vehicle owner, you should also be aware that Saturn may deny warranty coverage if your vehicle or a part has failed due to abuse, neglect, improper or insufficient maintenance, or modifications not approved by Saturn.

If you have any questions regarding your rights and responsibilities under these warranties, you should contact the Customer Assistance Center at 1-800-553-6000 or, in California, write to:

Parts specified in your maintenance schedule that require scheduled replacement are covered up to their first replacement interval or the applicable emission warranty coverage period, whichever comes first. If failure of one of these parts results in failure of another part, both will be covered under the Emission Control System Warranty.

For detailed information concerning specific parts covered by these emission control systems warranties, ask your retailer.

The emission control systems of your vehicle were designed, built, and tested using genuine Saturn parts* and the vehicle is certified as being in conformity with applicable federal and California emission requirements. Accordingly, it is recommended that any replacement parts used for maintenance or for the repair of emission control systems be new, genuine Saturn parts.

The warranty obligations are not dependent upon the use of any particular brand of replacement parts. The owner may elect to use non-genuine Saturn parts for replacement purposes. Use of replacement parts which are not of equivalent quality may impair the effectiveness of emission control systems.

If other than new, genuine Saturn parts are used for maintenance replacements or for the repair of parts affecting emission control, the owner should assure himself/herself that such parts are warranted by their manufacturer to be equivalent to genuine Saturn parts in performance and durability.

* "Genuine Saturn parts," when used in conjunction with Saturn vehicles means parts manufactured by or for Saturn, designed for use on Saturn vehicles, and distributed by any division or subsidiary of Saturn.

Maintenance and repairs can be performed by any qualified service outlet; however, warranty repairs must be performed by an Authorized Saturn Retail Service Facility or Authorized Saturn Service Provider, except in an emergency situation when a warranted part or an Authorized Saturn Retail Service Facility is not reasonably available to the vehicle owner.

In an emergency, where an authorized retailer is not reasonably available, repairs may be performed at any available service establishment or by the owner, using any replacement part. Saturn will consider reimbursement for the expense incurred, including diagnosis, not to exceed the manufacturer's suggested retail price for all warranted parts replaced and labor charges based on Saturn's recommended time allowance for the warranty repair and the geographically appropriate labor rate. A part not being available within 10 days or a repair not being completed within 30 days constitutes an emergency. Retain receipts and failed parts in order to receive compensation for warranty repairs reimbursable due to an emergency.

If, in an emergency situation, it is necessary to have repairs performed by other than a Saturn retailer and you believe the repairs are covered by emission warranties, take the replaced parts and your receipt to a Saturn retailer for reimbursement consideration. This applies to both the Federal Emission Defect Warranty and Federal Emission Performance Warranty.

Receipts and records covering the performance of regular maintenance or emergency repairs should be retained in the event questions arise concerning maintenance. These receipts and records should be transferred to each subsequent owner. Saturn will not deny warranty coverage solely on the absence of maintenance records. However, Saturn may deny a warranty claim if a failure to perform scheduled maintenance resulted in the failure of a warranty part.

As with the other warranties covered in this booklet, take your vehicle to any authorized Saturn retail facility to obtain service under the emission warranty. This should be done as soon as possible after failing an EPA-approved I/M test or a California smog check test, or at any time you suspect a defect in a part.

Those repairs qualifying under the warranty will be performed by any Saturn retailer or Authorized Saturn Service Provider at no charge. Repairs which do not qualify will be charged to you. You will be notified as to whether or not the repair qualifies under the warranty within a reasonable time, not to exceed 30 days after receipt of the vehicle by the retailer or Authorized Saturn Service Provider, or within the time period required by local or state law.

The only exceptions would be if you request or agree to an extension, or if a delay results from events beyond the control of your retailer or Saturn. If you are not so notified, Saturn will provide any required repairs at no charge.

In the event a warranty matter is not handled to your satisfaction, refer to the "Customer Satisfaction Procedure" in this booklet under Owner Assistance .

1. the vehicle has been maintained and operated in accordance with the instructions for proper maintenance and use set forth in the Owner's Manual, New Vehicle Warranty, or Maintenance Schedule supplied with your vehicle;
2. the vehicle fails a provincial I/M test during the emission warranty period indicated above; and
3. the failure results, or will result, in the owner of the vehicle having to bear a penalty or other sanctions (including the denial of the right to use the vehicle) under local, provincial, or federal law.

Make your vehicle available to any authorized Saturn retailer as soon as possible after failing a provincial I/M test or at any time you suspect a defect in a part. If all the above conditions are met, General Motors of Canada Limited, on the behalf of Saturn Corporation warrants that your dealer will replace, repair, or adjust to Saturn specifications, at no charge to you, any of the parts listed under "What Is Covered" which may be necessary to cause your vehicle to conform to the applicable emission standards.
