MAHLE Clevite Inc. will pay only for parts and labor needed to repair engine damage directly resulting from an above defined
warranty failure which occurs within the initial two (2) years from the date of purchase, 200,000 miles, or 7,200 hours
following installation, (one (1) year, 100,000 miles or 3,600 hours for water pumps, oil pumps and turbochargers) whichever
occurs first. Costs will be limited to those required to restore the engine to the functional condition existing immediately
prior to the failure and will be calculated based on the prices paid for the MAHLE Clevite Inc. parts installed during the
original engine build. Only straight time labor rates will be reimbursed based on a reasonable prevailing rate, not to exceed
the published flat rate, for the geographic area in which the repairs are performed. Additional labor charges for overtime or
holidays will not be allowed. Additionally, MAHLE Clevite Inc. will pay the cost of maintenance items such as oil, anti-freeze,
belts, hoses and filter elements when these items are not reusable as a result of a warrantable failure.
Turbochargers submitted for warranty must be assembled and complete with ID tag.
For “Premium Plus” parts only, following expiration of the initial time period defined above, MAHLE Clevite Inc. will provide
replacement of only the MAHLE Clevite Inc. brand parts involved in the event of an above defined warranty failure until a total
of three (3) years from the date of purchase, 300,000 miles, or 10,800 hours, whichever occurs first. MAHLE Clevite Inc. will
not be responsible for any additional repair costs, parts or labor, after expiration of the initial time period.
