WARRANTYIn the U.S. and Canada
This warranty covers repairs resulting from any
defect in material or workmanship which would
cause the vehicle not to meet emission standards
during the applicable warranty period. Some
components considered part of the emission
system applicable to this warranty are listed in the
article “Emission Warranty Parts List – Federal –
U.S. and Canada” in this booklet.
This emission warranty is not conditionally based
on the use of genuine Volvo parts or service.
However, failures which occur as a result of
abuse or lack of maintenance are not eligible for
coverage.
Warranty Period
The federal emissions design and defect warranty
period is two (2) years or 24,000 miles/ 40,000
kilometers, whichever occurs first. Volvo continues
coverage under new car warranty to four (4) years
or 50,000 miles/80,000 kilometers, whichever
occurs first, except for certain specified major
emissions components for which the coverage
is eight (8) years or 80,000 miles/130,000
kilometers, whichever occurs first. These major
components include only the threeway catalytic
converter (TWC), engine control module and the
onboard diagnostic system (OBD). (Refer to the
2019 Emission Warranty Parts List for specific
components’ coverage.) The warranty begins on
the date the vehicle is sold/delivered to the first
retail purchaser or put into service, whichever
occurs first. Any remaining portion of the warranty
is fully transferable to subsequent owners free-
of-charge.Where the warranty applies
This warranty applies to 2019 model year vehicles
sold by Volvo Car USA, LLC, or Volvo Car Canada
Limited, certified for sale, registered and normally
operated in any 50 states of the U.S., the District
of Columbia, any territories or commonwealths of
the United States, or any territories or provinces
of Canada.
Repairs and Service
The emission control system of your new
2019 model year Volvo passenger vehicle was
designed, built, and tested using genuine Volvo
parts. The car is certified to be in conformity with
the appropriate U.S. Federal or Canadian emission
control regulations at the time of production.
Servicing
It is recommended that any replacement parts
used for maintenance, repair, or replacement of
emission control systems be genuine Volvo parts
or genuine Volvo remanufactured parts.
You may elect to have maintenance, repair, or
replacement of the emission control devices
and systems performed by any automotive
repair establishment or individual. You may
also elect to use parts other than genuine
Volvo parts or genuine Volvo remanufactured
parts which have been certified by the part
manufacturer for such maintenance, repair,
or replacement without invalidating this
warranty. The cost of such service or parts,
however, will not be covered under the
warranty.Parts
Use of replacement parts which are not equivalent
to Volvo quality may impair the effectiveness of
emission control systems. If other than genuine
Volvo parts or genuine Volvo remanufactured parts
are used for maintenance, repair, or replacement
of components affecting emission control, the
owner must obtain assurances that such parts are
warranted by their manufacturer to be equivalent
to genuine Volvo parts in performance and
durability. Volvo assumes no liability under this
warranty for parts other than genuine Volvo parts
or genuine Volvo remanufactured parts. However,
the use of non-Volvo replacement parts does
not invalidate the warranty on other components
unless the non-Volvo parts cause damage to
warranted parts or systems.
