Warranty
Federal Emission Defect Warranty
Saturn warrants to the owner the following:
• The vehicle was designed, equipped, and
built so as to conform at the time of sale
with the applicable regulations of the Federal
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
• The vehicle is free from defects in material
and workmanship which cause the vehicle
to fail to conform with those regulations
during the emission warranty period.
Emission related defects in the genuine Saturn
parts listed under the Emission Warranty
Parts List, including related diagnostic costs, parts,
and labor are covered by this warranty.
Federal Emission Performance Warranty
Some states and/or local jurisdictions have
established periodic vehicle Inspection and
Maintenance (I/M) programs to encourage proper
maintenance of your vehicle. If an EPA-approved
I/M program is enforced in your area, you may
also be eligible for Emission Performance
Warranty coverage when all of the following three
conditions are met:
• The vehicle has been maintained and
operated in accordance with the instructions
for proper maintenance and use set forth
in the owner manual or maintenance
schedule supplied with your vehicle.
• The vehicle fails an EPA-approved I/M test
during the emission warranty period.*
• 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, state,
or federal law.
*Saturn warrants that your retailer will replace,
repair, or adjust to Saturn specifications, at
no charge to you, any of the parts listed under the
“Emission Warranty Parts List” later in this
section which may be necessary to conform to the
applicable emission standards. Non-Saturn
parts labeled “Certified to EPA Standards” are
covered by the Federal Emission Performance
Warranty.
