Maintenance Service and Replacement Parts
Important information concerning maintenance service
and replacement parts is in the Limited Warranty on
Nissan Replacement Parts and Accessories section of this
booklet. No warranty claim will be denied solely because a
non-Nissan part was used for maintenance or repair.
California Vehicle Inspection Program
Under this program, if your vehicle fails a “smog check” test,
you may choose to have diagnosis of the failure and repairs
made at a Nissan dealer or at another service facility. If
the inspection failure is the result of a condition covered
by these warranties, you must take your vehicle to an
authorized Nissan dealer for warranty repairs. This includes
parts, labor and diagnosis. You must pay for diagnostic
costs if performed at another service facility except in the
case of emergency repairs as outlined below.
You must pay for all diagnostic and repair costs of an
inspection failure as required by law if the failure was
caused by conditions not covered by these warranties. If
the failure is the result of a combination of conditions, you
must pay for only the diagnostic and repair costs related
to items not covered by these warranties.
After the 3 year/50,000 mile performance warranty has
passed, a “smog check” test failure due to a defect in a part
which is warranted for 7 years/70,000 miles is covered
5.

contaminants which the fuel fi lter is not designed
to remove.
3. In the case of the Performance Warranty, the use
of any non-Nissan part not certifi ed in accordance
with Federal requirements which is defective or
not equivalent from an emissions stand point to
the original equipment part.
