Diesel Engine Limited Warranty
A. Who Is Covered?
You are covered by the Diesel Engine Lim-
ited Warranty for up to 5 years or 100,000
miles on the odometer, whichever comes
first.
B. What's Covered
In vehicles equipped with a Diesel Engine,
ONLY the following engine parts and com-
ponents are covered by the Diesel Engine
Limited Warranty:
• cylinder block and all internal parts
• cylinder head assemblies
• core plugs
• fuel injection pump & injectors
• gaskets and seals for listed components
• intake and exhaust manifold
• oil pan
• oil pump
• timing gear drive belts and/or chains
and cover
• turbocharger housing and internal parts
• valve covers
• water pump and housing
C. When It Begins
The Diesel Engine Limited Warranty begins
on either of the following dates, whichever
is earlier:
• the date you take delivery of the vehicle;
or
• the date when the vehicle was first put
into service - for example, as a dealer
“demo” or as a company vehicle of the
vehicle distributor. D. Towing Costs Are Covered
The Diesel Engine Limited Warranty covers
the cost of towing your vehicle to the near-
est authorized Sprinter Dealer if your vehi-
cle cannot be driven because a covered
part has failed. If you choose to go to an-
other dealership, you will be responsible
for the cost if the extra distance exceeds
10 miles. For information on how to get
towing service in the United States and
Canada, see (
Page 20).
Corrosion Warranty
A. Who Is Covered?
You are covered if you are a purchaser for
use of the vehicle.
B. What's Covered
This limited warranty covers the cost of all
parts and labor needed to repair or replace
any sheet metal panels that get holes from
rust or other corrosion. If a hole occurs be-
cause of something other than corrosion,
this limited warranty does not apply. Cos-
metic or surface corrosion - resulting, for
example, from stonechips or scratches in
the paint - is not covered. For more details
on what is not covered by this limited war-
ranty, see (
Page 10).
What's Covered
Service and Warranty10
Maintenance Costs Not Covered
Your limited warranties do not cover the
costs of repairing damage caused by poor
or improper maintenance. Nor do they cov-
er damage caused by the use of contami-
nated fuels, or by the use of fuels, oils,
lubricants, cleaners or fluids other than
those recommended in your Operator’s
Manual.
The limited warranties do not cover the
costs of your vehicle’s normal or sched-
uled maintenance - the parts and services
that all vehicles routinely need. Some of
these parts and services, which your limit-
ed warranties do not cover, include:
• lubrication;
• engine tune-ups;
• replacing filters, coolant, spark plugs,
bulbs and sealed light assemblies, fluo-
rescent ballast & tubes, or fuses (unless
those costs result from a covered re-
pair);
• cleaning and polishing;
• remote control batteries;
• floor mats;
• mud flaps; and
• replacing worn wiper blades, worn brake
pads and linings, or clutch linings.
Racing Not Covered
Your limited warranties do not cover the
costs of repairing damage or conditions
caused by racing, nor do they cover the re-
pair of any defects that are found as the re-
sult of participating in a racing event.Certain Kinds of Corrosion Not
Covered
Your limited warranties do not cover the
following:
• corrosion caused by accident, damage,
abuse, or vehicle alteration;
• surface corrosion caused by such things
as industrial fallout, sand, salt, hail, and
stones;
• corrosion caused by the extensive or ab-
normal transport of caustic materials
like chemicals, acids, and fertilizers; and
• corrosion of special bodies, body con-
versions, or equipment that was not sup-
plied with your Sprinter vehicle when it
left the manufacturing plant.
What's Not Covered
Service and Warranty12
Exchanged Parts May Be Used in War-
ranty Repairs
In the interest of customer satisfaction,
the vehicle warrantor may offer exchange
service on some vehicle parts. This service
is intended to reduce the amount of time
your vehicle is not available for your use
because of repairs. Parts used in exchange
service may be new, remanufactured, re-
conditioned, or repaired, depending on the
part involved.
All exchange parts that might be used
meet new parts standards and have the
same limited warranties.
Examples of the kinds of parts that might
be serviced in this way are:
• engine assemblies;
• transmission assemblies;
• instrument cluster assemblies;
• radios, tape and CD players;
• speedometers; and
• powertrain control modules.
To help control suspected ozone-depleting
agents, the EPA requires the capture,
purification, and reuse of automotive air-
conditioning refrigerant gases. As a result,
a repair to the sealed portion of your
airconditioning system may involve the
installation of purified reclaimed
refrigerant.Pre-Delivery Service
A defect in or damage to the mechanical,
electrical, sheet-metal, paint, trim, and
other components of your vehicle may
have occurred at the factory or while it was
being shipped to the authorized Sprinter
Dealer.
Such a defect or damage is usually
detected and corrected at the factory. In
addition, authorized Sprinter Dealers must
inspect each vehicle before delivery. They
repair any defects or damage detected
before the vehicle is delivered to you.
Production Changes
Changes may be made in vehicles sold by
the vehicle distributor and its authorized
Sprinter Dealers at any time without
incurring any obligation to make the same
or similar changes on vehicles previously
built or sold.
