Emergency Repairs
In the case of an emergency where
an authorized Sprinter Dealer is not
available, certain warranty related repairs
may be performed by any available
repair location or by any individual
using any replacement parts. A part
not being available within 30 days or a
repair not being complete within 30 days
constitutes an emergency. The vehicle
warrantor will reimburse the owner for
expenses (including diagnosis), not to
exceed the vehicle warrantor’s suggested
retail price for all warranted parts
replaced and labor charges based on the
vehicle warrantor’s recommended time
allowance for the warranty repair and the
geographically appropriate hourly labor
rate. Replaced parts and paid invoices
must be presented as a condition of
reimbursement for emergency repairs
not performed by an authorized Sprinter
Dealer. Warranty Limitations
The vehicle warrantor is not responsible
for failures or damage resulting from
what the vehicle warrantor determines to
be abuse or neglect, including, but not
limited to: operation without adequate
coolants or lubricants; overfueling;
overspeeding; lack of maintenance of
cooling, lubricating or intake systems;
improper storage, starting, warm-up, run-
in or shut down practices; unauthorized
modifications to the engine. The vehicle
warrantor is also not responsible for
failures caused by incorrect oil or fuel or
by water, dirt or other contaminants in
the fuel or oil. The vehicle warrantor is
not responsible for failures resulting from
improper repair or the use of parts which
are not Genuine Mercedes-Benz approved
parts.
The vehicle warrantor is not responsible
for the material and labor costs of
emission control parts and assemblies
replaced during scheduled manitenance
of the vehicle as specified in the
Maintenance Booklet.
THIS WARRANTY, TOGETHER WITH
THE EXPRESS LIMITED WARRANTIES
ARE THE SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE
WARRANTIES MADE BY THE VEHICLE

How to Get Warranty Service
Where to Take Your Vehicle
A. In the United States
(We Include U.S. Possessions and
Territories as Part of the United States
for Warranty Purposes):
Warranty service repairs or replacements
must be done by an authorized Sprinter
Dealer of the owner’s choice.
If you have difficulty locating a convenient
authorized Sprinter Dealer, please
contact the Customer Assistance Center
(
e Page 26). They can help you find the
closest authorized Sprinter Dealer.
B. In Canada and Mexico:
If you are traveling temporarily in Canada
or Mexico, and your vehicle remains
registered in the United States, your
New Vehicle Limited Warranty still
applies. Service may be requested at any
authorized Sprinter dealership.
C. In a Foreign Country Outside of
North America:
If you are traveling temporarily outside of
North America, and your vehicle remains
registered in the United States: •
You should take your vehicle to an
authorized Sprinter Dealer. They
should give you the same limited
warranty service you receive in the
United States.
• If the authorized dealership charges
you for repairs which you feel should
be covered under your limited
warranty, please get a detailed
receipt for the work done. Make sure
that this receipt lists all warranty
repairs and parts that were involved.
(This receipt will be similar to the
one used by the dealer who normally
services your vehicle.)
• When your vehicle returns to the
United States, contact the Customer
Assistance Center (
e Page 26) for
reimbursement consideration. You
will need to provide a copy of the
receipt, your vehicle registration and
any other relevant documents.
• Reimbursement will not be
considered if the vehicle does not
return to the United States.
D. If You Move:
If you move to another country, be sure
to contact the Customer Assistance
Center (
e Page 26) and the customs
department of the destination country
before you move. Vehicle importation
rules vary considerably from country to
country. You may also be required to
obtain documentation from the vehicle
warrantor in order to register your vehicle
in your new country.

Engine Limited Warranty, dial toll-free
1-877-762-8267. Provide your name,
vehicle identification number, model year
and color of vehicle, telephone number
where you can be reached, disabled
location of vehicle, and a description of

consent, we will contact local police or
safety authorities. B. If Unable to Contact 24-Hour Towing
Assistance:
If you are unable to contact 24-Hour
Towing Assistance and you obtain
towing services on your own, you may
submit your original receipts from the
licensed towing or service facility, for
services rendered within 30 days of the
occurrence. Be sure to include your
vehicle identification number, odometer
mileage at the time of service and
current mailing address. We will process
the claim based on vehicle and service
eligibility. If eligible, we will reimburse you
for the reasonable amounts you actually
paid, based on the usual and customary
charges for that service in the area
where they were provided. The vehicle
distributor’s determination relating to
reimbursement are final. Correspondence
