California Emission Control
Warranty Statement*
Your Warranty Rights and
Obligations
The California Air Resources Board and
BMW of North America (BMW NA) are
pleased to explain the emission control
system warranty on your 2005 vehicle. In
California, new motor vehicles must be
designed, built and equipped to meet the
State’s stringent anti-smog standards. BMW
NA must warrant the emission control system
on your vehicle for the periods of time listed
below provided there has been no abuse,
neglect or improper maintenance of your
vehicle.
Your emission control system may include
parts such as the fuel injection system, the
ignition system, catalytic converter, and
engine computer. Also included may be
hoses, belts, connectors and other emission-
related assemblies.
Where a warrantable condition exists, BMW
NA will repair your vehicle at no cost to you
including diagnosis, parts and labor.
Manufacturer’s Warranty Coverage:
– For 3 years or 50,000 miles whichever
occurs first:
1. If your vehicle fails a Smog Check inspec-
tion, all necessary repairs and adjustments
will be made by BMW NA to ensure that
your vehicle passes the inspection. This is
your emission control system PERFOR-

– As the vehicle owner, you are responsible
for the performance of the required

for your failure to ensure the performance
of all scheduled maintenance.
– You are responsible for presenting your
vehicle to an authorized BMW center as
soon as a problem exists. The warranty
repairs should be completed in a reason-
able amount of time, not to exceed 30
