17smart New Vehicle Limited Warranty - Things You Should Know

General

Our intention is to repair under
warranty, without charge to you,
anything that goes wrong with your
vehicle during the warranty period
which is our fault. All we ask is that
you properly maintain and care for
the vehicle and that you have warranty
repairs performed by an authorized
smart Center.

Please note the difference between
“defects” and “damage” as used in the
warranty. Defects are covered since
we, the distributor, are responsible.
Conversely, we have no control over
damage caused by things including,
but not limited to, collision, misuse,
and lack of or improper maintenance.
Therefore, damage for whatever reason
is not covered by the warranty.

It is the owner’s responsibility to
maintain the vehicle according to
the Maintenance Schedule provided.
All maintenance services must be
accomplished to keep your warranty
coverage valid. When requesting
service or repair work under warranty,
the owner must present to the
authorized smart Center evidence that
the periodic servicing requirements
have been accomplished. Receipts
covering completion of required
servicing should be retained in the
event a question arises concerning
maintenance.

These receipts should be transferred
to each subsequent owner of the
vehicle. For your convenience,
the Maintenance Booklet has been
designed to incorporate the signature
of your authorized smart Center
upon completion of the required
maintenance services.

This signature is evidence of
completion of the maintenance
services and should be kept together
with other receipts, repair orders and
invoices.

If the owner has a warranty claim and
can show through receipted invoices
that the vehicle has received the
required servicing, the authorized
smart Center will perform the warranty
work without charging for parts and
labor. It is the responsibility of the
owner to prove and the authorized
smart Center to judge whether the
required maintenance service has
been performed.

MBUSA’s obligation is limited to the
authorization to exchange or repair
at its option such parts which are
acknowledged by it to be defective. In
case of defective assemblies, Genuine
smart Remanufactured Parts can be
used in exchange instead of their
repair. The replaced defective parts or
assemblies shall become the property
of MBUSA. Warranty repairs do not
constitute an extension of the original
warranty period for the vehicle or a
part thereof.

>> Service and Warranty.

18 smart New Vehicle Limited Warranty - Things You Should Know

Insurance Write-Off; or Repaired
or Replaced Parts

Any vehicle which has been damaged to
such an extent that the owner, insurer,
financing institution or leasing
company determined the vehicle to be a
“total loss”, “write off” or equivalent,
is not covered by this warranty.
This includes but is not limited to
vehicles issued a “salvage”, “scrap”,
“dismantled” or similar title under
any state’s law.

Any parts repaired or replaced under
an insurance claim or required as a
result of events which are not covered
under this warranty (see “Items Which
Are Not Covered”, (e Page 14), for
example, damages due to accidents,
misuse, or negligence, and in either
case, any subsequent consequential
damage to the vehicle are not covered
by this warranty.

Paint and Other Appearance Items

Defects in paint, trim or other
appearance items are normally
taken care of during our new vehicle
preparation or by the authorized smart
Center during new vehicle inspection.
We suggest that if you find any paint or
appearance problems that you advise
your authorized smart Center as soon
as possible since deterioration due to
use and exposure is not covered by the
warranty.

The instructions in your Operator’s
Manual regarding the care of paint,
upholstery, trim items and convertible
tops, as applicable, must be followed
explicitly to maintain your warranty
coverage.

>> Service and Warranty.

19smart New Vehicle Limited Warranty - Things You Should Know

Body Repair Information

Due to the materials and assembly
procedures used in the production
of smart vehicles, it is strongly
recommended that any paint work/body
repairs be performed using Genuine
smart parts by repair facilities which
have been certified by MBUSA as having
the tools, equipment and training
necessary to perform such repairs.
MBUSA has certified a network of body
repair facilities which are qualified to
perform both cosmetic and structural
repairs to your vehicle.

While the vehicle owner may elect
to have repairs (collision damage/
paint repair work) performed by any
automobile body repair establishment
or individual, damage or malfunction
caused by body repairs not performed
in accordance with smart specified
repair procedures are not covered
by the smart New Vehicle Limited
Warranty.

Should your vehicle need paint
work/body repair or if you have
any questions please contact your
authorized smart Center or call
1-800-762-7887.

Customer Repair Orders

MBUSA does not maintain copies of
Repair Orders on warranty repairs
performed. Your servicing authorized

21Warranty Enforcement Laws (Lemon Laws)

Laws in many states and federal law permit owners and/or lessees to obtain a
replacement vehicle or a refund of the purchase or lease price under certain
circumstances. The provisions of these laws vary from state to state and vary
from the federal law. To the extent allowed or not prohibited by applicable
law, MBUSA requires that you first provide us with direct written notification
of any alleged unrepaired defect or malfunction, or any other dissatisfaction
you have experienced with your vehicle so that we have the opportunity to
cure the problem or dissatisfaction ourselves. Giving MBUSA itself this
direct notice and opportunity to cure enables us to supplement prior efforts
by our authorized smart Center so any ongoing problem can be resolved or
the dissatisfaction addressed by us. In states that do not require it, we also
require, without constituting any liability beyond the smart new vehicle
warranty, that you give us direct written notice of any service difficulty you
have experienced. Written notifications, either required under an applicable
Lemon Law or other written notifications should be sent to us, not one of our
authorized smart Center, at Mercedes-Benz USA, LLC, Customer Assistance
Center, One Mercedes Drive, Montvale, New Jersey, 07645-0350.
