WARRANTYfor diagnostic and repair expenses. If the failure 
is caused by a combination of warrantable and 
nonwarrantable conditions, the owner shall not be 
liable for the portion of diagnostic and repair costs 
relating to the warrantable condition. If the failure 
is caused by a nonwarrantable condition, the 
vehicle owner shall be liable for all diagnostic and 
repair expenses, but not to exceed the maximum 
permissible under the inspection program. The 
owner may choose to have the vehicle repaired at 
a facility other than a Volvo retailer; however, if a 
warrantable condition is found, the owner must 
bring the vehicle to an authorized Volvo retailer to 
have the repairs completed at no cost for parts, 
labor, and diagnosis. Volvo will not reimburse 
the owner for diagnostic costs incurred at the 
unauthorized service facility except in the case of 
an emergency.Hybrid models The following provisions apply to vehicles 
which fail to pass the California, Connecticut, 
Delaware, Maine, Massachusetts, Maryland, 
New Jersey, New York, Oregon, Pennsylvania, 
Rhode Island, Vermont or Washington Smog 
Inspection. Should your vehicle fail a smog check 
test during the warranty period, you may choose 
to have the vehicle repaired at any authorized 
Volvo retailer. The authorized Volvo retailer will 
make the necessary repairs within the three (3) 
year/50,000-mile period so that the vehicle will 
pass the inspection. After three (3) years/50,000 
miles, but before a period of use of seven (7) 
years/70,000 miles, the authorized Volvo dealer 
will repair or replace only those parts listed in the  
 
 article “2020 Model Year Emission Parts List” in 
this booklet. After seven (7) years/70,000 miles, 
but before a period of use of eight (8) years/ 
80,000 miles, the authorized Volvo retailer will 
cover only the catalytic converter, engine control 
module, central electronic module and onboard 
diagnostic device. TZEV vehicles identified in the 
article “Volvo’s 2020 New Vehicle Warranties” 
in this booklet have all emissions components 
covered for a period of fifteen (15) years or 
150,000 miles. Volvo will pay for the repair 
unless the failure was caused by abuse, neglect, 
improper maintenance, or the use of leaded 
fuel or fuels not recommended in your Owner’s 
Manual or this booklet. If the failure is covered 
under this warranty, Volvo shall be liable for 
diagnostic and repair expenses. If the failure is 
caused by a combination of warrantable and 
nonwarrantable conditions, the owner shall not be 
liable for the portion of diagnostic and repair costs 
relating to the warrantable condition. If the failure 
is caused by a nonwarrantable condition, the 
vehicle owner shall be liable for all diagnostic and 
repair expenses, but not to exceed the maximum 
permissible under the inspection program. The

have the repairs completed at no cost for parts, 
labor, and diagnosis. Volvo will not reimburse 
the owner for diagnostic costs incurred at the 
unauthorized service facility except in the case of

improper adjustments (by other than a 
Volvo dealer during warranty repair work),
