12WHAT IS NOT COVERED
3.2. ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS NOT COVERED
Your warranties do not cover damage caused by environmental factors
such as airborne fallout, bird droppings, insect damage, chemicals, tree
sap, salt, ocean spray, acid rain, and road hazards. Nor do your warranties
cover damage caused by hailstorms, windstorms, tornadoes, sandstorms,
lightning, floods, and earthquakes.
Your warranties do not cover conditions resulting from anything impacting
the vehicle. This includes cracks and chips in glass, scratches and chips in
painted surfaces, or damage from collision.
3.3. MAINTENANCE COSTS NOT COVERED
Your warranties do not cover the costs of repairing damage caused by poor
or improper maintenance. Nor do they cover damage caused by the use of
contaminated fuels, or by the use of fuels, oils, lubricants, cleaners or
fluids other than those recommended in your Owner’s Manual. The warranties do not cover the costs of your vehicle’s normal or
scheduled maintenance — the parts and services that all vehicles routinely
need. Some of these parts and services, which your warranties do not
cover, include:
• Lubrication
• Engine tune-ups
• Replacing filters, coolant, spark plugs, bulbs, or fuses, unless those costs
result from a covered repair
• Cleaning and polishing
• Replacing worn wiper blades, worn brake pads and linings, or clutch linings
3.4. RACING NOT COVERED
Your warranties do not cover the costs of repairing damage or conditions
caused by racing, nor do they cover the repair of any defects that are found
as the result of participating in a racing event.
