CALIFORNIA EVAPORATIVE EMISSIONS CONTROL WARRANTY STATEMENT YOUR WARRANTY RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS

The California Air Resources Board (and OHRV manufacturer's name, optional) is pleased to explain the evaporative emissions control system warranty on your (model year) (OHRV). In California, new off-highway recreational vehicles must be designed, built, and equipped to meet the State's stringent anti-smog standards. (OHRV manufacturer's name) must warrant the evaporative emissions control system on your (OHRV) for the periods of time listed below provided there has been no abuse, neglect, improper maintenance, or unapproved modification of your (OHRV).

Your evaporative emissions control system may include parts such as the carburetor or fuel-injection system, fuel tank, fuel hoses, carbon canister, and engine computer. Also included may be hoses, belts, connectors and other evaporative emissions-related assemblies. Where a warrantable condition exists, (OHRV manufacturer's name) will repair your (OHRV) at no cost to you including diagnosis, parts and labor.

OHRV MANUFACTURER'S WARRANTY COVERAGE: [For 2018 and later model year OHRVs.]

The warranty period for this OHRV is 30 months, or 2500 miles, or 250 hours, whichever comes first, except for "high-priced" warranty parts, which are covered for 60 months, or 5000 miles, or 500 hours, whichever comes first.

If any evaporative emissions-related part on your (OHRV) is defective the part will be repaired or replaced by (OHRV manufacturer's name).

OWNER'S WARRANTY RESPONSIBILITIES:

As the (OHRV) owner you are responsible for the performance of the required maintenance listed in your owner's manual. (OHRV manufacturer's name) recommends that you retain all receipts covering maintenance on your (OHRV), but (OHRV manufacturer's name) cannot deny warranty solely for the lack of receipts or for your failure to ensure the performance of a scheduled maintenance.

As an owner you are responsible for presenting your (OHRV) to a(n) (OHRV manufacturer's name) dealer as soon as a problem exists. The warranty repairs should be completed in a reasonable amount of time, not to exceed 30 days.

As an (OHRV) owner, you should also be aware that (OHRV manufacturer's name) may deny you warranty coverage if your (OHRV) or a part has failed due to abuse, neglect, improper maintenance or unapproved modifications.

If you have any questions regarding your warranty rights and responsibilities, you should contact (Insert chosen OHRV manufacturer's contact) at 1-XXX-XXXX or the California Air Resources Board at 4001 Iowa Avenue, Riverside, CA 92507.

(b) Each OHRV manufacturer must submit the documents required by this section with the Executive Order of Certification application for approval by the Executive Officer. The Executive Officer may reject or require modification of the documents to the extent the submitted documents do not satisfy the requirements of this section. Approval by the Executive Officer of the documents required by this section must be a condition of certification. The Executive Officer must approve or disapprove the documents required by this section within 90 days of the date such documents are received from the OHRV manufacturer.
