Caterpillar Warranty
EMISSION RELATED COMPONENTS
Caterpillar warrants to the initial user and each subsequent user of Diesel Truck Engines (powering on-highway trucks), subject to the provisions set forth below, that the engine (1) was designed, built, and equipped so as to conform at the time of sale with United States Environmental Protection Agency regulations applicable at the time of manufacture, and (2) is free from defects in material and workmanship at the time of sale which will cause the engine to fail to conform with such regulations for five (5) years or 100,000 miles or 3600 hours of engine operation, whichever occurs first after delivery of the engine to the initial user.
Caterpillar will provide a new part or a repaired part, whichever Caterpillar elects, along with labor for the installation of such new or repaired parts, in place of any parts found upon its inspection to be defective in material or workmanship. All of the charges for such parts and labor, when provided during normal working hours at a place of business of a Caterpillar dealer or other establishment authorized by Caterpillar, will be paid by Caterpillar.
An engine failure shall not be considered to be caused by a defect in workmanship or materials when such failure occurs as the result of:
(a) Improper installation of the engine.
(b) The use of engines in applications which exceed the limits recommended by Caterpillar for the model engine involved.
(c) The use of attachments which are not approved by Caterpillar.
(d) Lack of proper maintenance or other operator abuse.
This warranty is in addition to Caterpillar's standard warranty applicable to the series of engine involved.
Remedies under this warranty are expressly limited to the provision and installation of parts, as specified above, and any claims for loss arising out of failure of the engine to operate for any period of time, or special, indirect or consequential damage, or other economic loss are expressly excluded.
The term "Caterpillar" as used herein means Caterpillar Tractor Co. or one of its subsidiaries, whichever last sold the truck engine involved.
