warranty claim solely because you do not
have records to show that you maintained
your vehicle. However, any failure or non-
compliance caused by lack of maintenance
is not covered by this warranty.
When maintenance and repairs are paid
for by you, these services may be per-
formed by you or by any automotive

To ensure optimum performance and
maintain the quality built into your vehicle’s
emission control systems, Scion recom-
mends the use of Scion Authorized Parts
when servicing or repairing the systems.
Warranty coverage is not dependent
upon the use of any particular brand of
replacement parts, and you may elect
to use non–Scion Authorized Parts for
maintenance and repairs. However, use
of replacement parts that are not equiva -
lent in quality to Scion Authorized Parts
may impair the effectiveness of the emis-
sion control systems. If you use replacement parts that have
maintenance or replacement schedules
different from those of Scion Authorized
Parts, you must follow the maintenance
and replacement schedules for the parts
you are using. In addition, you should
ensure that such parts are warranted by
their manufacturers to be equivalent to
Scion Authorized Parts.
If your vehicle fails an EPA-approved emis-
sions test, you may make a claim under
the Emission Performance Warranty. To
do so, take your vehicle to an Authorized
Servicing Dealership and present a copy
of the emissions test report. Also, take
your maintenance records in case they
are needed.
If your claim qualifies for coverage, the
dealership will repair your vehicle within
30 days (unless a shorter period is required
by law). If your claim is denied, Scion will
notify you in writing of the reason within
the same period. If we fail to do so, we will
repair your vehicle free of charge. The only
exceptions allowed are when you request
or agree to a delay, or when a delay is
caused by factors beyond the control of
Scion or the dealership.

under the Emission Defect Warranty, see

2) We have visually inspected those emis- sion control devices or portions thereof
that are visible without removing or

devices installed on a vehicle for the
sole or primary purpose of controlling
emissions and which were not in gener-
al use before 1968.) 3) We have performed all emission control
system preparations required by Scion
prior to the sale of the vehicle as set
forth in Scion’s current pre-delivery
service manual.
4) Except as may be provided in Paragraph 5, if this vehicle fails an EPA-approved
emissions test within three months or
4,000 miles (whichever comes first) of
delivery to the ultimate purchaser, and
the vehicle has been main tained and
used in accordance with the written
instructions for proper mainte nance
and use, Scion will remedy the noncon-
formity free of charge under the terms
of the Emission Performance Warranty.
5) If vehicle was used as a company car or demonstrator, check box and complete
the following:
■■ The vehicle with which this statement
is delivered was placed into service as a company car or demonstrator
