Emission Control System Warranty (Cont.)
The emission warranty for the diesel particulate filter (DPF) and SCR System covers defects in workmanship only. Normal maintenance, such as cleaning ash from the filter at regular maintenance intervals and cleaning the aftertreatment fuel injector on Diesel oxidation catalyst (DOC) DPF systems, is not covered by the emission warranty.
Note: In response to customer requests, VOLVO Trucks North America may build vehicles with engines supplied by other manufacturers. In these cases, each engine manufacturer through its service organization, is responsible for emission control systems warranty on all parts of the engine assembly, as furnished.
CAUTION
Any unauthorized adjustments to the emission control components can cause severe damage to the engine.
1.Repairs by VOLVO Dealers, Sub-Dealers and Service Dealers Repairs covered by the Emission Control Systems Warranty will be performed by any authorized VOLVO repair facility with no charge for parts and labor (including diagnosis), using VOLVO parts for any part of the emission control systems covered by this warranty and found defective.
2.In an Emergency In an emergency, where an authorized VOLVO facility is not available, repairs may be performed at any available service establishment, or by the owner, using any replacement part, within the limitations of paragraphs 3 and 4 in this section. An emergency condition exists under this section if, after 30 days, repairs have not been completed or parts are not yet available. VOLVO will reimburse the owner for such repairs that are covered under this warranty, including diagnosis, not to exceed VOLVO’s suggested retail price for parts replaced and labor charges based on VOLVO’s recommended time allowance and geographically appropriate hourly labor rate. Replaced parts and paid invoices must be presented at a VOLVO facility as a condition of reimbursement for emergency repairs performed elsewhere.
3.Repairs by Non-VOLVO Facilities Owners may elect to have maintenance, replacement, or repair of emission control systems performed by any repair facility, and may elect to use parts other than VOLVO parts without invalidating the warranty on other components, but the cost of such service or parts will not be covered by VOLVO under its warranty.
CAUTION
In the event that damage results from unauthorized adjustments to any emission control system components, as evidenced by settings other than as specified, or broken fastener seals, the cost of repairing such damage WILL NOT BE COVERED under warranty
16 Operator's Manual Vehicle Maintenance VN,
VHD
4.Use of Non-VOLVO Parts Use of replacement parts which are not the equivalent of VOLVO parts may impair the effectiveness of emission control systems. If other than VOLVO parts are used, the owner should obtain assurances that such parts are warranted by their manufacturer to be the equivalent of VOLVO parts in performance and durability. VOLVO assumes no liability under this warranty with respect to parts other than VOLVO parts; however, the use of non-VOLVO parts does not invalidate the warranty on other components unless non-VOLVO parts cause damage to warranted parts.
5.Maintenance and Maintenance Records The vehicle owner is responsible for the performance of all required maintenance specified in this manual. VOLVO will not deny a warranty claim solely because there is no record of maintenance; however, VOLVO may deny a warranty claim if failure to perform required maintenance results in the failure of a warranted part. Receipts or other records covering the performance of scheduled maintenance should be retained to answer questions that may arise concerning maintenance. Maintenance records should be transferred to subsequent owners if the vehicle is sold.
6.Items Not Covered by the Emission Control Systems Warranty
•Malfunctions caused by misuse, improper adjustments, modification, alteration, tampering, disconnection, improper or inadequate maintenance and use of improper diesel fuel.
