Federal Emissions System Defect

Warranty (Valid only in the U.S.A.

and Puerto Rico)

This warranty applies only to U.S. specification

vehicles distributed by BMW of North America,

LLC (BMW NA) or sold through the BMW NA

European Delivery Program.

In accordance with the defect warranty provi-

sions of section 207(b) of the Clean Air Act,

BMW NA warrants to the first retail purchaser,

and each subsequent purchaser, that the car (a)

was designed, built and equipped so as to con-

form, at the time of sale, with all regulations of

the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency appli-

cable at the time of manufacture and (b) is free

from defects in materials and workmanship

which would cause it to fail to conform with

applicable regulations for a period of 2 years or

24,000 miles, whichever occurs first, except for

specific emission control components (as listed

on page 36), for which the warranty period is

8 years or 80,000 miles, whichever occurs first.

Coverage begins on the date of first retail sale

or the date the vehicle is first placed into service

as a sales demonstrator, service loaner (SLP) or

company vehicle, whichever is earlier.

Warranty claims must be made as soon as rea-

sonably possible after a defect is discovered. To

make a claim, the car must be brought to any

authorized BMW center during normal business

hours.

The BMW center will, without charge for parts

or labor (including diagnosis), either repair or

replace the defective part, if any. The decision

whether to repair or replace said parts is solely

the prerogative of BMW NA and must be

expected to correct the failure of the warranted

part. Parts for which replacements are made

become the property of BMW NA. In all cases, a

reasonable time must b e allowed for warranty

repairs to be completed after the car is received

by the BMW center.

For assistance in determining which specific

parts or components of your vehicle are covered

under this warranty, please contact your BMW

center.

It is the owners responsibility to have all sched-

uled inspection and maintenance services per-

formed (at the owners expense), as prescribed

in the maintenance schedule for the BMW Emis-

sion Control System. Service intervals are com-

puted by the onboard BMW service interval

indicator and displayed on the instrument panel.

The instructions for proper maintenance and

use can be found in the Owners Manual. It is

strongly recommended that any replacement

parts used for maintenance, repair or replace-

ment of emission control systems be certified

BMW Service Parts or BMW Authorized

Remanufactured Parts. Without invalidating this

warranty, the owner may elect to have mainte-

nance, repair or replacement of the emission

control systems performed by any automotive

repair establishment, or elect to use parts other

than certified BMW Service Parts. However, the

cost of such service or parts will not be covered

under this warranty, except in emergency situa-

tions. In an emergency situation, where an

authorized BMW center or a warranty replace-

ment part is not reasonably available (within

30 days), repairs may be performed at any avail-

able service establishment using any equivalent

part. BMW NA will reimburse the owner for such

emergency repairs (including labor, parts and

diagnosis not to exceed BMW NA rates for labor,

parts, and diagnosis in said area) that are cov-

ered under this warranty. Replaced parts and

paid invoices must be presented at a BMW cen-

ter as a condition of reimbursement for emer-

gency repairs not performed by a BMW center.

The use of replacement parts, which are not of

equivalent quality, may impair the effectiveness

of the emission control system. If other than cer-

tified BMW Service Parts or Authorized Remanu-

factured Parts are used for maintenance, repair

or replacement of components affecting emis-

sion control, the owner should obtain assurances

that such parts are warranted by their manufac-

turer to be equivalent to genuine BMW parts in

performance and durability. BMW NA assumes

no liability under this warranty with respect to

parts other than genuine BMW parts.

Howeve r, the use of non-genuine BMW replace-

ment parts or non-EPA certified parts does not

invalidate the warranty on other components,

unless non-genuine BMW parts or non-EPA cer-

tified parts cause damage to warranted parts.
