General
These warranties give you specific legal rights,
and you may also have other rights which vary
from state to state.
THE DURATION OF ANY IMPLIED WARRAN-
TIES, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTY
OF MERCHANTABILITY, IS LIMITED TO THE
DURATION OF THE EXPRESS WARRANTIES
HEREIN.
BMW NA HEREBY EXCLUDES INCIDENTAL
AND CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, INCLUD-
ING LOSS OF TIME, INCONVENIENCE, OR
LOSS OF USE OF THE VEHICLE, FOR ANY
BREACH OF ANY EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WAR-
RANTY, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTY
OF MERCHANTABILITY, APPLICABLE TO THIS
PRODUCT.
Some states do not allow limitations on how long
an implied warranty lasts, or the exclusion or lim-
itation of incidental or consequential damages,
so the above limitations and exclusions may not
apply to you. Additionally, if you are a California,
Maine, Massachusetts or Vermont resident and
your vehicle is registered in that state, your vehi-
cle is eligible for California Emissions Warranty
coverage.
These federal warranty provisions also apply to
all vehicles sold in all U.S. states and territories
regardless of whether a state has enacted state
warranty provisions that differ from the federal
provisions.

It is strongly recommended that any replacement
parts used for maintenance, repair or replace-
ment of emission control systems be genuine
BMW Service Parts or BMW Authorized
Remanufactured Parts. Without invalidating this
warranty, the owner may elect to have mainte-
nance, repair or replacement of the emission
control systems performed by any automotive
repair establishment, or elect to use parts other
than BMW Authorized Remanufactured or genu-
ine BMW Service Parts. However, the cost of
such service or parts will not be covered under
this warranty, except in emergency situations. In
an emergency situation, where an authorized
BMW center is not reasonably available or a war-
ranty replacement part is not available within 30
days, repairs may be performed at any available
service establishment or by any individual using
any replacement part.
A repair not completed within 30 days consti-
tutes an emergency. BMW NA will reimburse the
owner for such emergency repairs (including
labor, parts and diagnosis not to exceed BMW
suggested retail price for all warranted parts
replaced and labor charges based on the manu-
facturer’s recommended time allowance for the
warranty repair and the geographically appropri-
ate hourly labor rate) that are covered under this
warranty. Replaced parts and paid invoices must
be presented to a BMW center as a condition of
reimbursement for emergency repairs not per-
formed by a BMW center.
The use of replacement parts, which are not of
equivalent quality, may impair the effectiveness
of emission control systems. If other than genu-
ine BMW Service Parts or Authorized Remanu-
factured Parts are used for maintenance, repair
or replacement of components affecting emis-
sion control, the owner should obtain assurances
that such parts are warranted by their manufac-
turer to be equivalent to genuine BMW parts in
performance and durability. BMW NA assumes
no liability under this warranty with respect to
parts other than genuine BMW parts.
However, the use of non-BMW replacement
parts does not invalidate the warranty on other
components, unless non-BMW parts cause
damage to warranted parts.What is not covered
This warranty does not cover malfunctions caused
by any of the following: accident, flood, misuse,
modification, alteration, tampering, disconnection,
improper or inadequate maintenance, except if
performed by an authorized BMW center doing
warranty repair work, use of leaded fuel or fuel
other than as specified in the Owner’s Manual.
The replacement of maintenance parts, such as
spark plugs, filters and similar items used in
required maintenance services or the repair or
replacement of maintenance parts beyond the
first replacement interval.
Any car on which the odometer has been
replaced or altered and the true mileage cannot
be determined.
The car, if the vehicle identification number is
altered or cannot be determined, or if the car has
been declared a total loss or sold for salvage
purposes.

you may also have other rights which vary from
state to state.
