The emission warranty on your
vehicle is issued in accordance with
the U.S. Federal Clean Air Act.
Defects in material or workmanship
in GM emission parts may
also be covered under the New
Vehicle Limited Warranty
Bumper-to-Bumper coverage. There
may be additional coverage on GM
diesel engine vehicles. In any case,
the warranty with the broadest
coverage applies.
What Is Covered
The parts covered under the
emission warranty are listed under
the“Emission Warranty Parts List”
later in this section.
How to Determine the
Applicable Emissions Control
System Warranty
State and Federal agencies may
require a different emission control
system warranty depending on:
.Whether the vehicle conforms to
regulations applicable to light
duty or heavy duty emission
control systems.
.Whether the vehicle conforms to
or is certified for California
regulations in addition to U.S.
EPA Federal regulations.
All vehicles are eligible for Federal
Emissions Control System Warranty
Coverage. If the emissions control
label contains language stating the
vehicle conforms to California
regulations, the vehicle is also
eligible for California Emissions
Control System Warranty Coverage.
